For academics (especially White academics, but this goes for everyone) reading #BlackintheIvory and wondering how you can support Black students and academics here is a thread of things to consider a number which have been especially supportive of my own professional development

I don't post much, but people NEED TO SEE THIS: 1st, Police behavior in a peaceful protest. And 2nd video on how NON-protesters (probably police themselves) cause damages to strategically place more blame on protesters.

@monblaze @Bookunming @sansivera @29_Jewels @rosenbergjones So true. For example, when I was in undergrad and when I knew I would need to walk home late, I would plan to wear an oversized hoodie and baggy pants so that I wouldn't look like a woman and be targeted.

Does plasticity facilitate or constraint adaptation? When you put Brazilian house mice in a cold room, morphological and physiological traits shift towards mice from upstate New York! Props to my fellow @MVZUCB member @Mal_Ballinger! #ASM100

I'm looking for a postdoc to work on population genetics of pedigreed populations: https://t.co/ecr8xTZ9Ms. If interested, please email me or come find me at #Evol2019

[Dr. Kathleen Gray Ferris @ferrisifolius]

The Ferris lab is recruiting a lab #technician, phd students, and post-docs to study the genetic basis of local adaptation and speciation in #Monkeyflowers! Like #plants #evolution #genetics #NewOrleans? Find me at #Evol2019 or contact me https://t.co/WCysnvRA7h Please RT!!!

Love this thread 😆

If you DID NOT learn about Juneteenth in school, RT this, I’m really trying to see something.

THREAD:

I hate where I’ve had to live this field season. Coastal Georgia, while incredibly beautiful, is full of people fondly remembering the “good old days,” and actively grieving its end.

[Sarah McAnulty, Ph.D @SarahMackAttack]

I’m at a meeting, & again I hear “I would prefer to not use a microphone”

So it’s time for your periodic reminder:

It doesn’t matter if you’re loud, & you think everyone can hear you. Maybe folks w/ average hearing can. But not everyone has average hearing!! Use the damn mic!

[Gabriela P. Heyer @HeyerGab]

Had lots of fun @Pubs2019! Great talks, got some new ideas, and did my first conference presentation (finally). People laughed at my jokes, so I count it as a great success! 👐

I'm super excited, I finally have my first publication!!! (as co-author). Congrats to the first author, Colleen Crill! 👐

The paper is about using feces and hair as non-invasive measures of glucocorticoids in black-tailed prairie dogs: https://t.co/iZtIk2cC7D

[Gabriela P. Heyer @HeyerGab]

I agree! There have been times when I felt I had nothing to talk about w/ my PI, but Everytime I still felt I got something out of it!
