Assistant Professor at Towson University studying macroevolution, phylogenies, and comparative methods. Love invertebrates! Comments are my own. (he/him/ele)

The Caetano lab at Towson University (Maryland) is seeking a Master's degree student (Research Assistant) with a strong interest in macroevolution, phylogenetics, and programming to start in Fall 2026. Apply by December 31st here: https://t.co/oqTj1EbrJ8

The Biota Awards from Walder Foundation is now postdoctoral fellowship! Reach out by email if you are interested in applying to join our lab. I'm especially interested in projects with collections and eDNA/metabarcoding to study overlooked pollinators https://t.co/0Y2U6odPLL

Going official with the release of something we've been cooking up for the last 3.5 years--a complete phylogeny of the world's birds! We = @snacktavish, @Avibase, and other great collaborators from @opentreeoflife and @CornellBirds. Why is this such a big deal? A few reasons.

Working to resubmit a grant proposal. I somehow deleted whole paragraphs and added way more details, completely changed a project, and added a figure. My most parsimonious explanation is that the US letter size increased.

One of the most important skills that I learned in 2 years as Assistant Professor is to write despite what is going on in my head or around me. Still trying to master that, but way better than before.

@SavageBloggers Parabéns! Muito bom o trabalho de vocês!

@Analyssi @MeganRRuffley Ohhh!

This is the second year that I decided to get used to LibreOffice Impress and prep all my slides using it. There is a learning curve to get where the tools are and how they behave. But after that, it works great! Recommend you to try it as well.

My research with @tbquental is out in Systematic Biology. We study how budding speciation can affect inferences based on PCMs of trait evolution. We describe under which conditions budding can and cannot affect PCMs and how. https://t.co/1W6ZfL56Nl

Teaching "Biodiversity" this semester. I am going to flip this course. My own way...

@Machado_DSc free-pizza? . Fale com professores e peça para informar os alunos. Devagarinho vai espalhando. Tem que cair nas organizações dos próprios alunos nos departamentos para ser mais efetivo eu acho.
