I'm excited to announce a tenure track faculty position in conservation genomics in EEB @UCLA! We're looking for candidates who use genomic tools to study evolutionary processes related to conservation. Note, the actual application deadline is Nov 29. recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF09875

Please share - PhD with me, @BAS colleagues and @LaurenNadler @unisouthampton - Fish metabolism across latitudes - lovely team, cool science and great fish! Please contact me, details: tinyurl.com/mhfp8f2h

Hi all, my lab at UC Riverside is recruiting PhD students for Fall 2025! These positions will be fully funded and include NIH-funded projects on recombination rate evolution and chromosomal inversions. Get in touch with me at ksamuk@ucr.edu, and please RT!

Check out this exciting, fully-funded #PhD project with @clivetrue, co-supervised by me and colleagues at @BAS_News exploring field metabolic rate across global latitude gradients. Details here: findaphd.com/phds/project/f…

Our work on the genetics and evolution of a sexual mimicry polymorphism is now out in @CurrentBiology! Link to paper: cell.com/current-biolog…

🚨🚨🚨Jobs at IU!🚨🚨🚨 Multiple positions in computational biology, broadly interpreted. Positions can be in multiple depts, including Biology, Informatics, and CS. Please apply--we want new colleagues! jobs.sciencecareers.org/job/664327/mul…

New preprint with @UCSB_OakleyLab @niko_hensley @JeroDelr et al. on the molecular evolution of bioluminescence in brittle stars!

Our latest out today @Nature! We revisit a century-old theory and show that metabolic gradients work hand-in-hand with genetic&signalling instructions to shape the embryo. Glucose isn't just an energy source, it acts as a major conductor of the body plan🍬 nature.com/articles/s4158…

📢New Paper Alert📢 🪸Selective breeding enhances tolerance of corals to marine heatwaves Take-home message: -Breeding corals for heat tolerance is feasible -R&D needed to optimise outcomes -Not a silver bullet solution -Still need climate action bit.ly/4h0Tc0P 1/9

New preprint w/ @SciStrader and Gretchen Hofmann! We show that parental environments alter the fitness consequences and genetic architecture of offspring plasticity and associated gene expression pathways in purple urchins. Check it out! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are looking to hire a marine ecologist at the Assistant Professor level here at UMass Boston. We are defining this very broadly, so check the ad. Applications due by Nov 20! See the thread below for more details. employmentopportunities.umb.edu/boston/en-us/j…

📢 I’m hiring a 3yr postdoc Interested in evolutionary origins of miRNA/RNAi in animals? Keen on working with early branching metazoans and unicellular relatives? Please join my lab 🧬 @thembauk ⏳Deadline 25th October 2024 ℹ️ Details: jobs.ac.uk/job/DJW823/pos… Please RT!

I'm recruiting a fully funded PhD student for a Fall 2025 start - see details below and learn more about my lab here: dornsife.usc.edu/carlslab/

@TomaDesvignes @friel @ihartcaves @zwculumber @cichlidosaurus @kmkocot @BrianSidlauskas Congrats, Thomas!!!

Shamelessly stealing a figure by postdoc fellow Kevin Archibald today because I want to shout out his very cool new paper in JTB. Kevin’s work shows a tradeoff between speed of acclimation and maximal growth in mixotrophs. Read more at: doi.org/10.1016/j.jtbi…

@ZooMechanist I’m sorry about that typo!

@granogan I feel the love Sam ❤️

Whenever I start feeling down about my small Twitter following, it always helps me to remember that even extremely rich and famous people only get 1 or 2 likes sometimes. But I will also take this opportunity to thank all my robot followers that help me fill this void in my❤️

As a reminder I'm searching for a PhD student interesting in working on our NSF-funded project on minnow evolution and diversification. I made a post to EvolDir:

Excited to share the preprint with @granogan and many others! This is a project we have been thinking about for years in the lab and collecting important samples! Thanks to all those who contributed! We're really excited about the findings!
