James Boyko

AI in Science Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Michigan with Dan Rabosky and Yuanfang Guan

[Jeremy Beaulieu @phylieu]

I'm hiring a post-doc to work on a new NSF-funded project. This is funded up to two-years and is in collaboration with Andrew Dickerson at UTK. Start date is very negotiable.

Our new R package is finally out!!! Ontophylo is a new approach integrating the PARAMO pipeline, ontologies, and adding new tools for studying phenomes. Check it out!!! :) @luomus @pseudacris @tarasov_sergio

I'm thrilled to announce that our department is now currently accepting applications for a tenure track faculty position in Plant Evolutionary Biology! Job link here: https://t.co/CxQgNBCmzM.

Come join us in wonderful Fayetteville and @uarkfulbright!! Please RT!!

A new preprint from my group examining the interaction between climate and life-strategies across a large number of independent clades. Really nice work from @jboyko21 @ehagen and @TNCVasconcelos !

I'm excited to announce that I will be joining @UMichEEB as an Assistant Professor & Herbarium Curator this Fall (2022)! I'll be soon looking for grad students too! If you like plant biogeography and/or tropical botany, check out my website for more information👇#NewPI 🌿🌿🌿

Very cool presentation by @jboyko21 for his PhD defense -- before and after opening the Pandora’s box of comparative methods

[Jeremy Beaulieu @phylieu]

@jboyko21 is now Dr. Boyko! Thank you to his committee @sinkingdiatom @AdamSiepielski and @omearabrian . That was such a fun defense and I can't wait to see what the future holds!

[James Boyko @jboyko21]

@damalichthys So when I confidently said "oh ya, hOUwie is a month away", what I meant to say was a year away....

[James Boyko @jboyko21]

Happy to share a new preprint we've been working on that provides a joint likelihood framework for discrete and continuous characters in OUwie. Lot's of fun problem solving along the way. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

[James Boyko @jboyko21]

Codes on github here: https://t.co/hTSLllklEN and on the github version of OUwie here: https://t.co/dLDjSvLNmT

[James Boyko @jboyko21]

@phylieu @EricHagen19 Thank you to all for stopping by my poster! Here’s the link to the preprint https://t.co/mt33vfHyRb

[Jeremy Beaulieu @phylieu]

FYI: OUwie, corHMM, and HiSSE were all temporarily orphaned for violating CRAN's new code policies. New versions were sent to CRAN, but weren't processed fast enough...

For now, if you want to install:

library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("thej022214/PACKAGE")

Commencing countdown... until Evolution 2022! #evol2022

[James Boyko @jboyko21]

@iochromaland sounds similar to https://t.co/angkU6CCZq which has an accompanying function in phytools (phyl.pairedttest)

[Thais Vasconcelos @TNCVasconcelos]

Happy to see this volume out! We bring a comprehensive collection of reviews and original articles on the drivers of the exceptionally diverse Neotropical flora. Thank you to all the authors who contributed to making this the largest issue @BotJLinnSoc and to the team of editors

[James Boyko @jboyko21]

Happy to share a preprint I've been working on. It applies rate heterogeneity to the problem of biased correlation described in Maddison & FitzJohn (2015). If you're interested in discrete character correlation, I'd love to hear your thoughts! https://t.co/mt33vfZ9IJ

[Katherine Corn, PhD @damalichthys]

Wake up early tomorrow morning to see my work LIVE in the Mayr Award competition for Outstanding Student Talk in @systbiol ! @Evol_mtg #Evol2021

I'm up first, at 7am PST/10 am EST, so bring your coffee and we'll talk about why biters are special! 🐡🐟

Four years ago today, Pizzagate was born when Wikileaks dropped John Podesta's hacked emails.

Users on 4chan and Reddit said if you replaced the words "pizza" with "little girl" in his emails, suddenly they were eating children.

A year and three weeks later, QAnon was born.
