I am interested in recruiting PhD students in the area of plant ecological genetics!
Potential topics include ecological genomics in Arabidopsis, morning glory, or ragweed; plant-microbe interactions; or new topics at the intersection of quant gen and pop gen.
@NatureEcoEvo This is nice science, but I think Springer Nature needs to reevaluate its policy on "neutrality" in published maps. Publishing a map that violates the sovereignty of an independent state is not in any way "neutral"
Today, the Provost’s office sent an email to grads at Penn which linked to a misleading FAQ page. While this page presents itself as a neutral source, it is in fact created to dissuade workers from unionizing. Grad workers responded to it here: https://t.co/D9Ecs49wTQ
The Bio Dept at University of Rochester is hiring a TT Assistant Professor in evolutionary genetics/genomics. Review begins 11/1. Come be our colleague! https://t.co/LKI2fWNIsg
When you read Fanon, you learn that during decolonization, some (not all) combatants commit terrible things. He doesn't justify these acts but situates them within the colonial, psychosocial, and asymmetrical power context in which they’re committed.
Reminder there is no crystal ball for the impact a discovery will have over time so delaying progress for years by abdicating agency to gatekeepers who *also* don’t have one can confer the appearance but not the substance of that impact. Post preprints. Accelerate science.
Hey #Evol2023 - Come hang out in the Mutualism session on Saturday afternoon (Aztec / 140, 2:30-3:45) to hear @changyu_chang, Nuri Yi, and me talk about our lab’s latest work!
@lukejharmon & I are giving away a few copies of our PCMs in R book at #Evol2023. The first grad student at the meeting to reply to this tweet gets this one. Please DO NOT reply if you already have a copy. #GoldenRule.
Members of my lab are presenting multiple works in progress on
whether we can detect sexual selection in Rhagoletis flies
&
how larval salamanders respond to natural pond temperature variation
Posters tonight & Sat

We can't win our union without you. Here are three ways you can get involved: 1) Ask your coworkers to sign their union authorization cards here: https://t.co/61Fy6z4zPp
