I'm super excited to announce that I will be joining the Biology Department and Intermountain Herbarium at Utah State, alongside the inestimable @Dr_Crushworth! (Starting July 2022) @UTCherbarium @UStateScience @USUAggies

Applications are now open for the 2025 Workshop on Molecular Evolution (MOLE) at the Marine Biological Laboratory in *beautiful* Woods Hole, MA! More info here: molevolworkshop.github.io ; Deadline: Jan. 29th Workshop dates: May 22 - June 1

New fern genome just dropped! A haplotype resolved chromosome level assembly of Azolla caroliniana with the #CCGP @crothfels @fern_way @TribbleTweets biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@wareslab Ha! Exactly. At one point this would have been my dream job, now I just feel sick

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. Job description here: tinyurl.com/2whyry36. Contact me if you're interested. Please RT!!!

New paper alert (open access)! Thanks to a new tip-dated phylogeny of bonytongue fishes (Osteoglossomorpha) with a large sample of fossils, we find that today's freshwater arapaimas and arowanas were ancestrally marine! (1/n) royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

For those interested in polyploidy, @BarkerLab is organizing the 2024-2025 Polyploidy Webinar series! If you want to be on the future mailing list for this great webinar series, please sign up here: forms.gle/Bp3VUGeP9nAcSS… More soon! barkerlab.net/polyweb

🌱From the upcoming #AJB #Polyploidy special issue🌱 The role of deep #hybridization in #fern speciation: Examples from the Thelypteridaceae By @fawcett_susan, @KuoFernLab, @YuHsinTseng1 and @tbisrael70 doi.org/10.1002/ajb2.1… @wileyplantsci @WileyEcolEvol

I'm thrilled to announce that our department is now currently accepting applications for a tenure track faculty position in Evolutionary Biology! Job link here: tinyurl.com/yc564huk. Come join us in wonderful Fayetteville and @uarkfulbright!! Please RT!!

"childless woman" is such an 19th-century-ass insult. what else you got. do I render inferior tallow? do my cabbages grow pale and blemished? does the quality of my sock-darning bring shame upon my father's name?

Just baked! The impact of #genomesize on plant risk of #extinction. A huge collaborative effort led by @yam_it_up and @IliaLeitch. Always a pleasure to team up with such talented #scientists @KewScience @IBB_botanic nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Come join my dept at @USUAggies in the beautiful Cache Valley! We are hiring 2-3 Assistant or Associate Professors in Cell/Molecular Biology (broadly defined), with emphasis in #neuroscience, #development, functional #genomics, or systems biology. social.icims.com/viewjob/pt1722…

@ShellyGaynor Me too…

Well at #Evol2024 #Evolution2024 was fun, but I just tested positive for COVID. 🫠🫣🤧

The @IBC2024 ended, but not quite! some field trips were still left, of which I had the fortune to organize one with my dear colleagues @mario_mairal & @Guille_sr24: the Iberian Pteridoflora Expedition! The first activity of the Pteridophyte Working Group of the @OficialSebot

@molino_sonia wow!!!

On the way to Ponte do Eume, where we would spend the next three days, we stopped at two locations: first at the Parga River, where we could see the incredible Isoetes longissima, a species that exceeds 40 cm!

We're having a cluster search -- come join us at fantastic USU! -- careers-usu.icims.com/jobs/8173/assi… Please spread the word and I'd be happy to talk with anyone about my experiences here, etc.

are you a biologist whose "research addresses questions in neuroscience, development (including evo-devo), systems biology, or functional genomics" or other areas in cell & molecular biology?

If you missed my talk at #Evol2024 #Evolution2024 on coexistence of mixed cytotypes with Nico Andrade, Ethan Cockey, @JLandisBotany @NKortessis Jose Miguel Ponciano and @soltislab you can see it here: youtu.be/NmsMFPHudXw?t=…

New preprint! We found that there are actually many endosymbionts of #azolla and they all have different patterns of codiversification! @TribbleTweets @crothfels @fern_way #ccpg biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
