@mbeisen I think you are right that it starts with reaching across and talking. You never know, he might be interested. He's had Neil deGrasse Tyson on his show before!

[Maggie R Wagner @maggieRwagner]

Interested in plants, genes, and/or microbes? I'm hiring a technician to start in January or earlier. You'll be part of a fantastic team working on the genetics of plant-microbe interactions. Get your application in by Friday 11/1 - https://t.co/P5v7KimuAx please RT

The Fly Board introduced a new Mentor-Mentee program, which aims to foster the development of early-career scientists by connecting them with mentors beyond their immediate circles. Fill out a brief survey to volunteer to be a mentor

@Graham_Coop https://t.co/uN7S8C5MtK with .@myanglab maybe this?

@sexchrlab @evolscientist @GeneticsSociety @OfficialSMBE @ASU My HR made a special change to their internal policy so that I could ship milk home from conferences and charge it to my grant as allowable reimbursement costs! Sorry ASU won't do the same! Ugh!

@3rdreviewer @phylodrew @RD_Denton .@NickBailey596 dissertation chapter on this would fit nicely in this review. Check it out here: https://t.co/m4xMzFK25U

If you’ve gotten an NSF PRFB and want to pay it forward please consider sharing yours publicly on my GitHub!

[Peter Sudmant @psudmant]

Just a few weeks left to apply to this Human Genetics position in Berkeley IB! Over the last 7 years IB has hired 12 assistant professors (!including me!) and is an incredibly supportive environment. I can't wait to welcome a new colleague!

Come to Recombination Rate Variation Session #Evol2024 Mon July 29, 12:15 in 520B to hear about biology's "spooky action at a distance" 👻

See how inversions alter recombination on other chromosomes!

And explore its consequences for deleterious mutation accumulation with SLiM!

#NewPI recruiting at all levels (tech, PhD & PD) to study courtship behavior evolution. Talk to me at #Evol24 about opportunities & learn more about the research in the Genomics of Mate Choice symposium (room 516D) on Monday at 3pm! @EEES_Dartmouth @MCBDartmouth

[Kieran Samuk @ksamuk]

Hey #evolution2024 I am recruiting a postdoc, starting as early as September 2024, to work on a variety of evolutionary genomics projects in my lab at UC Riverside. Project specifics are flexible, and the position is renewable up to five years. Please RT and get in touch!

[Dr. Laurie Stevison @lstevison]

Arrived in Montreal! And excited to see so many recombination talks on the line up at #Evol2024 Here are the talks/posters from trainees in my lab

@MarielaOviedoD1 @Evol_mtg @sse_evolution Happy Birthday!

[Nicholas Kooyers @njkooyers]

We (Consortium for Plant Invasion Genomics) are searching for a postdoc to work on synthesizing population genomics data from contemporary and herbarium sampling from 5 invasive species. 48-55k. Hybrid or in Lafayette, LA. DM me if interested! Link to ad: https://t.co/jp29DRhJKE

@vsbuffalo @jgschraiber I've also had issues subsetting vcfs for example. Some programs replace the reference base based on the new set of individuals which is crazy because the reference should always be the same. Gives headaches for downstream merging!
