Posted this to my Instagram but felt like it needs to be documented more than once. Stop releasing balloons. Thanks.

If anyone knows of postdocs or teaching positions in paleontology, phylogenetics, evolutionary biology, or Earth science in general please do let me know. Aiming to defend in the spring and very much on the job hunt.

I’m excited to scale this analysis once the bugs are worked out and THEN can be sent to pasture (the cluster) for the big numbers.

The joys of modeling: waiting on your local machine for each run because troubleshooting on a laptop is faster than constant 2FA access for the computing cluster.

Rather disappointed by the amount of genAI figures I saw from today’s talks. There are alternatives. Obviously, not everyone has the budget to hire an artist, but stock images, photos and figures taken/made by yourself or colleagues, and a myriad of other options do exist.

Gel has to sit in an ethidium bromide bath for 20 minutes—just long enough for a day in Stardew Valley...

✨We are excited to present FishSounds 2.2!✨ Check out our new List View under the Visualize tab—we hope you enjoy this new way to explore the species on our website (in addition to the existing map and tree views!). The update also includes a few minor bug fixes.

I don’t have a “top 5” favorite list of dinosaurs, but I do have a top 2. 1. Brachiosaurus 2. Stegosaurus It’s always a joy to draw either, but stegosaurus is so distinctly *strange*. There’s no organism alive today that looks quite like this one.

Claimed by a 1912 printing of the Washington Post as the "Most Grotesque Animal," #Stegosaurus has since become one of the most recognizable and beloved of all dinosaurs. It's certainly a favorite of mine!

@whitetipRose @WhySharksMatter This isn’t marine biology-exclusive, but given the difficulties of getting to certain study systems or applying certain tech, this felt pertinent.

@whitetipRose @WhySharksMatter Funded. Research. Opportunities. Not all marine biology career paths are academia-centric, but there are few better ways to present students with choices than experiences or internships that have a stipend and other financial support.

With all the hype around #Perucetus, I felt it was important to emphasize that the story of oceanic gigantism is a tale as old as geologic time. #Shonisaurus and other giant ichthyosaurs are estimated to have weighed ~80 tonnes in life.

You know, conduct is a pretty important part of being a professional in any field. At least, that’s what I’ve been taught.

Why do many marine herbivores prefer to eat fleshy algae over #coralline algae? It's not due to differences in #caloric content, as previously thought! Congrats to @habanereo (Haupt lab, @CMEP_csumb & invert ecology lab, @MLMLmarinesci) on publishing this @MEPS_IR article.
Marine Ecology Progress Series (MEPS)@MEPS_IR

This study indicates that calcified #CorallineAlgae is not as #calorically poor as previously thought, indicating that another mechanism must be responsible for the preference of fleshy macroalgae over coralline algae by many marine herbivores! bit.ly/meps_713_173 @habanereo
