"Correlation is not causation"

To illustrate the point, @ocornejoPopGen and I built a model (SEIR w/ high- & low-risk groups). Because low-risk people are more common, their behavioral change can have *greater* impact on lowering peak number of infections. Ideally, everyone limits interactions, but... [2/8]

I have zero experience in a covid-related field, but I have a PhD, I am pretty goodz with the numberz, I am a man, and I know people really want to hear what I have to say so here is my take on covid-19:

You have an excellent background in #comparativegenomics or #populationgenomics, are looking for a post-doc on #comparativegenomics or inference of #populationhistory & want to apply for a #MarieCurie Individual Fellowship (ec.europa.eu/research/marie…)? Please get in touch!

Me: I love pastry Person on Twitter: I see that you like pastry and that’s fine but also I wondered if you ever knew that pastry was responsible for a murder in 1977 when someone set a sausage roll on fire which caused a fatality so you’re basically condoning murder here’s a link

#IQUIBICENPublica Les presentamos un trabajo publicado en Environmental Science and Pollution Research, que describe algunos efectos tóxicos de mezclas de nanopartículas de goethita con contaminantes metálicos y orgánicos, como el pesticida Clorpirifós, en la lombriz de tierra 👩‍🔬

Study evolution? Did you know the first African American to earn a PhD in evolutionary biology was Jospeh Graves- in 1988? His article should be required reading. We have work to do! evolution-outreach.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

It’s no secret that population genetics has roots in eugenics and scientific racism. But as a scientific community, we are skilled at avoiding the topic. Without confronting our history, we may continue to use eugenic frames of reasoning without realizing. genestogenomes.org/understanding-…

New paper is out! We studied how ECM fungi and elevated CO2 change root exudate and soil metabolites. 5 Reasons Why You Should Read This: - you love 🌳or 🍄 - soil fascinate you - you are concerned about climate change - mass spec rocks - colorful graphs sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

**Shameless self promotion** Looking for any short or long term evolutionary biology projects for 2021 around Australia. Willing to work remotely or travel. I would appreciate any retweets.. times are hard for ECRs right now!

Biodiversity science and practice are permeated with values. Let's make this much more explicit and make biodiversity policy and action not only more legitimate but also more effective.

1/4 📢New preprint out!📢 "Hutchinson's ecological niche for individuals". In this conceptual paper we (Holger Schielzeth & me) attempt to scale down Hutchinson's ecological niche from species/populations to individuals. Link: ecoevorxiv.org/zrcbg/ NC3 #Hutchinson
