I’m back from my secret spot in Portugal. You can find me where the sky looks much more blue with my same handle @wcresko. See you there

@frankvonhippel standing next the memorial to the massive Good Friday Earthquake in Alaska in 1964. It was a terrible day for many Alaskans, but provided an opportunity for us to team up and study the genomics of stickleback evolution in just decades. Thanks @NSF for the support.

@DanielBolnick I’ll be In Anchorage the 30th as well and picking up folks at the airport around 11pm. Maybe dinner at Moose’s Tooth? We can touch base in a couple days. Happy trapping.

Just dropped traps in Rabbit Slough and realized it was 30 years to almost the day that I put my first traps in that beautiful mosquito blessed creek by the highway.

Denali (and Foraker and Hunter) out in all their glory. It is truly breathtaking how beautiful and huge these mountains are.

Back in Alaska for some field work and thinking a lot about everything that Susan Foster and John Baker taught me. Now to put the dry suit back on to see what the stickleback are doing. Thank you S & J.

I’m thrilled to announce that I will be joining @uvabio as an Assistant Professor in January 2024! My lab will be studying the evolutionary genomics of sexual conflict using genetic engineering & experimental evolution in Caenorhabditis nematodes. More details to come! 🪱🧬🔬🧡💙

I love the fact that February 14th shows up several times on the first two pages of the indictment. Who needs flowers when there is hush money?

Sharing this in case it's useful: I find that students often have a hard time conceptualizing quantitative parameters in genomics and popgen Here's a cheat-sheet I put together for teaching. It's also part of a textbook I have been writing on human genetics (more on that below)

It is with great sadness that we share the news that Dr. Casey Brown passed away on Saturday, March 18. He was a friend, colleague, and mentor to so many in the GCB and CAMB communities, as well as the scientific community as a whole, and will be deeply missed.

I’ve been at the bench the last few weeks setting up reactions, running gels, organizing my notebook…. After years of not I am realizing what a treat it is to be in the moment and the flow. Best part; I apparently haven’t lost too many steps (to my students’ clear surprise).
