A wonderful first day at the Alfred Wegener Institute in Bremerhaven, Germany. Seeing how polar aquaculture can be accomplished and meeting such a large group of polar marine biologists is amazing. Thanks to Felix Mark for hosting me. #WhereInTheWorldIsKUBiology

Professor Andrew Forbes (@Lord_Forbington), PhD, has been awarded an NSF grant titled, “How do gall-forming insects escape diverse and evolving clades of parasitic wasps - and how do parasites catch up?”! 🎉 The grant is for 4 years in the amount of $898,359.

As a reminder I'm searching for a PhD student interesting in working on our NSF-funded project on minnow evolution and diversification. I made a post to EvolDir:

Finally made a lab website. Only been putting that off for 4 years. Excited for the things to come and to start working with a pretty cool group of people.

My photo was rejected for my ID card because it was “not a photo of me”. I had to explain I’m just old now compared to my driver’s license.

Happy to release Stacks v2.67 today. This release updates process_radtags to make it easier to use SRA data and to filter poly-G (error) runs coming from Nextseq/Novaseq machines + bugfixes. We also added a genotype depth filter to populations #RADseq

Multiple sessions on #mitochondria at the #SEBConference. Definitely enjoying cosplaying as a “real” physiologist. #datascience #genomics

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

First time attending #SEBConference.
It has been a minute since I attended a large meeting. Will I learn my lesson from #Evolution and just pick a session and stay put or hop around like a maniac for 8 hours?

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

Finally not triaged!! @jsharbro

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

@pastramimachine still obsessively checking for scores. Thought maybe delayed because of the holiday?

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

Looking for a postdoc? Check out this great position from @jsharbro. Friend and collaborator for almost 15 years. I could not more highly recommend learning from him. Also, this snowflower project is SO COOL. #postdocjob #postdoctoral #genomics

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

I needed this.

Friday reminder that you are doing the best you can.

That doesn’t mean you’re giving it your all, all the time. Nobody can.

But you do what you can, when you can, and that is plenty.

Write a bit. Walk a bit. Run, play, enjoy life.

You’re nailing it.

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

@rony_speaks What tab would you suggest? I was thinking of EcoEvo but this is not a postdoc or faculty position.

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

Where do you post job announcements?
SACNAS, GSA, and others all assume I have $500 to spend for a few weeks on their job boards.
I want to reach applicants but so far have not found many viable options. #help

@Choi_JaeY Thank you very much! I am working on Evoldir now and did not know about jobrxiv. I will post there as well.

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

@jdpereira Ran out of characters but good luck! I hope you find someone. So many good scientists out there!

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

@jdpereira I'm transitioning from NTTF back to TTF and I can say the biggest struggle as an NTTF was being soft-money funded and having constant uncertainty. You clarified in your later tweets about this being a permanent position, but maybe lost people from not having it in the original?

[Emily Beck @Stickle_Beck]

The Beck Lab is hiring an assistant researcher/lab manager or two @KUbiology. Position starts this August in Lawrence KS. We are a 50/50 wet/dry lab and are looking for people with a wide range of skills. Must love mitochondria. Helpful if you love fish. https://t.co/6BSSPIbbzR
