Assistant Prof, U of New Hampshire, MCBS COLSA. Ecological consequences of evolution in species interactions, esp. those between plants and microbes. she/her
My new lab is highlighted in #ECRinFocus by @TrendsMicrobiol! - check out the thread for some tidbits about us and the host-microbe projects we are working on in duckweeds and other systems
The Ohio Mushroom DNA Lab is offering free DNA barcoding for any wild collected fungus, found anywhere in the world.
They need to be dried and packaged in ziplock snack sized bags, labeled with the iNaturalist observation #

SO excited to finally share this news! The Clean Swell® app has been used to record cleanup data for decades with the #InternationalCoastalCleanup and now groups in the #InternationalTrashTrapNetwork can feed their data straight into this global database.
Thrilled to share our latest paper out in @Ecology_Letters!
We show that mutualisms impact trait evolution BEYOND the traits involved in the interaction.
Specialised mutualisms tend to stabilise traits, while generalist mutualisms favour change.

I just have to share that I'm giddy with excitement because I'm organizing "thinking series" (free!) webinar on Critical Concepts on Microbial Dormancy with @mSystemsJ and the speaker line up is FAN-TAS-TIC!
stay tuned! You aren't going to want to miss this!

Interested in discovering new things about bugs, behavior, evolution? Funded MSc positions available in my lab in beautiful Nova Scotia.
One month till the @stfxuniversity grad school app deadline.
We are searching for an Assoc. Professor in Plant Ecology! Join us at the Plant Ecology and Evolution program @UU_University in beautiful Sweden. We are looking for a highly motivated and friendly colleague with complementary expertise to us. Apply here: https://t.co/SEQGh48O4O
New work led by Zoë Humphries and @bmsacchi: When things are bad they get even worse! We assembled and characterized the rapid genome evolution and extensive degeneration in young Y chromosomes that arose in a repetitive region of low recombination https://t.co/eVh68tJ5Ry
For the first time ever, I am formally appealing a grant rejection from @NSERC_CRSNG. They declined my grant on an absurd technicality that honestly I would never have expected from @NSERC_CRSNG, a funding agency I respect and have worked hard for 1/n
We, @UofTTrashTeam , are so honored to have received this award. It really means the world. This is a result of the amazing creativity, hard work and passion from our students, volunteers and partners!
@PetrovADmitri I've never managed a definition satisfactory to myself and others. I'm starting to think that no definition of stress transfers across individuals and environments (and reviewers)...I'll be curious to see what accumulates here.
I'm super excited to say that I am the new @sicb_dpcb Student/Postdoc Rep! I'll be working with the division & @SICB_ to put on ECR-focused programming & be a resource for ECRs.
My job in this role is to support YOU: feel free to reach out w/ what @sicb_dpcb & I can do for you!
@SMBEmeetings next Global Symposium GS7 is coming up in February- are you studying the evolutionary importance of genomic structural variants or designing new methods for their detection? Abstract deadline is next week, don't miss! https://t.co/gCWTMt1NjD
