PostDoc studying genetic basis of disease resistance in Acropora. Formerly dispersal dynamics on Caribbean coral reefs

[Jason Selwyn @JasonSelwyn]

Check out our newest paper using a large set of white band disease infected Acropora cervicornis collected in the field cross-referenced with a smaller transmission experiment to identify the putative pathogen causing the disease. https://t.co/J4NCPShLSj

Anyone have resources they can share for establishing mentor-mentee expectations for graduate students that are mentoring undergraduate students? Like expectations to ensure undergrads are having a safe, positive experience with their grad student mentors and vice versa.

Folks! Does anyone remember/have that meme of someone trying to make a stick stand in ocean waves and it said how taxonomists feel trying to delineate species lol or something?? I need it to continue my rant about species concepts being only kinda real in my evolution class lol

honestly multilevel models exist in my brain as lmer syntax, not the formal equations

Take heed, Statistical Rethinkers - there are many code translations of the book examples and the new lecture examples into your favorite dialect of SnakeScript or CleanSpace or whatever hacker nonsense you like. I try to maintain an updated list: https://t.co/jyp2mxk9p4

Ten genomic regions contribute to resilience against white band disease in the endangered Caribbean staghorn coral, a new Science study finds. The results could be used as a conservation tool.

Fantastic work from the whole team Steve Vollmer, @BreciaDouglas, and Charles Roesel

[Jason Selwyn @JasonSelwyn]

Excited to share my first post-doc paper! We found that more disease resistant staghorn corals tend to have mutations in particular genes involved in the immune system!

and its in Science!!
