Good tips for people who want to enter the academic job market straight out of the PhD:

My piece on experimental design and causal inference in ecology & evolution is out in Ecology Letters to day. I'll provide some context on why I think inadequate experimental design in our field is limiting inferences & causing papers to be rejected 🧵onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…

Got into nature and got to see the eclipse. 10/10
Kids even skipped school!

Are you a recent PhD in marine and/or climate science interested in marine heatwaves and other climate extremes still on the site? Want to work in a diverse group, and help make sense of what the heck is happening in the ocean? We have a postdoc opening: simondonner.com/post-doctoral-…

A study on what many of us already know: over 75% of internal service work in academia is done by women. “We were surprised by how brazenly the male researchers described their priorities, for example that they actively didn’t respond to emails”

I’m feeling so ecstatic about this accomplishment but I have not received any offers from the clinical psych PhD programs that I applied to. If you or someone you know has a spot for a student interested in neuroimaging and neurodev disorders let’s pls chat #NSFGRFP

Our RA extraordinaire Alice Aizza got the NSF but has no grad school offers. Im determined to find her a spot! She is interested in psych/neuroscience (not clinical) and in the development of child executive functions, using imaging/computational methods. Pls RT/DM if you know

So apparently the “3 Body Problem” movie isn’t about a throuple trying to get jobs at the same university. Taking it off my watch list.

Hey #coral tweeps! Has anyone else given up on single cell RNAseq and tried single nucseq? Please share ideas! UGH

Think corals are cool? So do we! Check out this paper that I started collabing on first as a research tech and now finished as a new TT prof! Just goes to show no project is too old 😅🪸 #forthecorals
