Every summer we hold an Alumni Workshop in St. Louis for current GEP members to come together for PD, working groups, & community building. We're going virtual this year. Our first pre-workshop presentation will be the State of the Union address in T - 50 min! #GEPalumni20

Two students independently construct a gene model for a GEP research project. These gene models are reconciled by an experienced student w/ Apollo. We’re happy to report the reconciliation process officially kicked off today! Meet the Pathways Project reconciliation team😀

SUCH a wonderful time talking today with these intelligent, engaged, curious, and thoughtful undergrads @EvolveUA. Thanks to @UA_ALLELE and @BMinzoni for the opportunity.

I learned an incredible amount today about chitons from @RebeccaMVarney today, but now I want to know so much more!! ...like how do the sperm and eggs find each other? I'll never think of chitons the same.

[Dr. Eileen Hebets (she/her) 🕷 @hebets_lab]

Fantastic time today meeting @CaraOcobock and @Chris_Ly and now I very much look forward to listening to their podcast #SausageofScience. Great things happening @HumBioAssoc

Some of the images in @hebets_lab presentation will make those w/ spider phobia uncomfortable so here is a cute one to warm us up

[Dr. Becky Totten @PaleoTotten]

Did you know there are over 48,000 species of spiders (and counting)?! @UA_ALLELE @EvolveUA
