Help Ramadhan Luvandale end malaria! Ramadhan has a full PhD scholarship to research vector-borne disease, but he needs £1400 to cover flights and UK entry fees so he can take up the funding. Check out his GoFundMe page!

Wow @USSpensions! I think you are giving away the game!

Hey @UPS! You have lost my package. I would like to contact you about it, but it appears I cannot send you an email unless I sign your liability waiver. Is that really your intent?

[R. Tucker Gilman @GilmanTucker]

Interested in disease ecology? The PhD position below is open to applicants from any country.

[R. Tucker Gilman @GilmanTucker]

Want to apply your mathematical, statistical, or computational toolkit to study the role of ecology in human disease? Come work with @ngpdoc, @bromleymichael, Cathy Walton and me at @OfficialUoM! BBSRC-funded DTP position. Email or DM me for details.

@daniela_witten Have you tried saying "My name is Daniela Witten. That is W-I-T-T-E-N. Look it up." (I know you shouldn't have to, and I am sorry this happens. But if there is a time for pulling rank to put someone in their place, the situation you are describing might be it.)

[R. Tucker Gilman @GilmanTucker]

@tmwaring @jorgeapenas I agree. But, as well as catchy, we will need to bring it into common usage. With some audiences, saying I am from the United States or USA does not convey the correct information, but saying I am American does. Lots of work to do on this one!

[William Sellers @wisellers]

BBSRC funded PhD just advertised in my lab looking at the evolution of quadrupedal gaits. UK or international, almost any species, fossil or living, lots of options: https://t.co/NoQJe2xkU6

@EloquentScience Very cool! Thanks Dave!

[R. Tucker Gilman @GilmanTucker]

@omearabrian Maybe a question for @lanky_manky, @JamesAllanAtmos, @EloquentScience, or @lgarciacarreras?

Hey @KeyTravel, what do you mean by "technical reasons?" This wastes my time and has cost my employer money!

[R. Tucker Gilman @GilmanTucker]

Cool new paper by @NoebelSabine and colleagues shows how conformity in mate preference might evolve in a metapopulation. Lots of fun things to think about in this one!

[Sabine Nöbel @NoebelSabine]

New paper out with colleagues from @EDB_Lab, CRCA, @IASToulouse and @TSEinfo. A truly interdisciplinary overview of human and animal conformity and how it might have evolved. https://t.co/atznqPJM1e

@dunkie_c @OfficialUoM @UoM_EES @UoMMIB Welcome to Manchester!

[Brent J Sinclair @brentjsinclair]

I'm recruiting a PhD student to partner with colleagues in New Zealand on an exciting project combining insect physiology, evolution, and phytosanitation. Looking for people with a physiology or entomology (or... try me!) background. Please RT! https://t.co/daHXShuIzc

[R. Tucker Gilman @GilmanTucker]

@mbeisen Is there a higher compliment to give?

[R. Tucker Gilman @GilmanTucker]

@joey71074 @sunnmcheaux I am actually not trying to single out the UK. My point is just that, as a US citizen living in the UK, I don't see that much difference. It seems to me that we have a lot of work to do in both places. But, as @joey71074 says, it is not really my opinion that matters here.

[R. Tucker Gilman @GilmanTucker]

@joey71074 @sunnmcheaux They did not, nor did most other reasonable people. The UN Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent called it an "attempt to normalize white supremacy." I think most people think the report itself was further evidence of institutional racism.
