🥁Graduate opportunity🥁
I am recruiting 2 graduate students in applied quantitative ecology (1 PhD, 1 MSc) to evaluate large mammal monitoring tools in Montana

During #WomensHistoryMonth, we honor the legacy of @NASciences member and @LaskerFND recipient Evelyn M. Witkin. She was a leader in the field of genetics during an era with limited opportunities for women scientists. Explore her impactful work: https://t.co/nA82Tp8e5m
Of Mice and Mummies: A new #Montana study has helped scientists up the elevation limit for mammal life on Earth. Previously, no mammal had ever been found living at such an extreme altitude.

Congrats to Chip Aquadro on his Lifetime Achievement Award 2022! (belatedly presented) A well deserved acknowledgment of his science, vision, leadership, and great mentorship #SMBE2023
@KsUlbing gave us a look into the challenges snowshoe hares face throughout the seasons and what their genomes tell us about how they survive and adapt. Excited to see what you learn about those genes under selection!🐰🧬🏔️

Leaf-eared mice have been found at the highest elevation of any mammal, but what are they doing up there?? @sliphardt has been using genomics to uncover the population dynamics of this versatile mouse! 🐭 #IMC13
#CollectionsAreEssential, but accurate trait records need to be accessible for researchers to use them. Thankfully, @katderieg’s work with citizen scientists is improving collection records, one specimen tag at a time! #IMC13
Fantastic work by @jess_jpowell, presenting her first steps toward whole genome sequencing of snowshoe hares pellets! We’re excited to see the final results 🧬
