Kelsey Witt

My department (Genetics and Biochemistry @ Clemson) is hiring again this year! The broad theme for the Assistant Professor position is "biological resilience". I'm happy to talk about my experiences in the department so far (which have been very positive!) apply.interfolio.com/153026

UPDATE: The 2024-2025 list of faculty and postdoc positions in ecology and evolutionary biology is out TODAY! Be sure to check out this active and helpful community run resources! #gid=76501376" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…

4-year postdoc position in ancient human population genomics in my lab at the Crick. crick.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/External/job/L… Join us if you are interested in studying genetic history and/or natural selection in Europe and/or elsewhere, using ancient human shotgun genomes. Starting time is flexible.

@dna_historical Such a rockstar! You look great. :)

Getting the last of this lab work done before the baby arrives!!

@Dr_KatieG1 I hope you continue to feel well! Good luck. :)

@anthro_justino I'm so sorry that happened to you, Justin! I'm hoping your next step will be more supportive of you.

Our paper on #dogs from #Jamestown is finally out today! Thank you to my amazing coauthors, especially Jamestown Rediscovery, for helping me tell the story of these dogs and the people associated with them. - bit.ly/3WNZA3J

@lpipes @SOESTnews @uhmanoa Congratulations, Lenore!!!

What a dream to be going back to the Pacific to start my lab. I am thrilled to announce that I will be an incoming Assistant Professor in @SOESTnews @uhmanoa 🌺 starting in September. Beyond excited to be joining the labs there pushing the envelope in eDNA technology!

@Xinjun90 Apparently it was in South Carolina too! Unfortunately we missed it. Hopefully tomorrow night will be similar!

HOLY COW! Can't believe this is Michigan!

The Witt Lab has a logo! Many thanks to @mbenskydesigns for doing such an awesome job! It's great to reconnect with grad school friends. :) If you're in need of graphics, I highly recommend Miles!

@maya_weissman Congratulations, Maya!

I successfully defended my dissertation on Monday, and have finally recovered enough to post about it! #PhDONE

@JenniferRaff @GuggFellows Congratulations!!! That's fantastic!

@ArianeEThomas @uiowa @AUiowa Congratulations!!!

It still doesn’t feel real, but I passed my dissertation defense yesterday! So happy to share my work on ancient DNA and dogs with so many great scholars @uiowa @AUiowa

@Dr_KatieG1 Congratulations!

Why study archaic species that lived 100,000 to 30,000 years ago? DBMI assistant professor @drkatclaw explains the role of 11 CYP450 genes and the importance of their evolution through history in a new paper published in @GenomeBiolEvol. news.cuanschutz.edu/dbmi/archaic-h…

Hello, new favorite ggplot colorscheme!
