I do genomics, development, and evolution on interesting critters and I play Pokémon. Also I love my cat. That's it.

Fantastic #REU program in #evolution! Students from groups historically underrepresented in academia/science or with limited research opportunities at home institution are especially encouraged to apply. @sacnas HBCU Buzz Black Ecologists EEB_POC Black In Environment BWEEMS
I gave the first scientific talk of my PhD thesis work this weekend at the Princeton MolBio retreat and had a blast teaching everyone about non-model species genomics. Pictured is me in a Pikachu shirt with the required "I study evolution" slide.
Howdy Princeton folks! Have you ever wondered which parts of the genome tell a 🐭to be a 🐭and a 🐔to be a 🐔? Want to learn some practical bioinformatics skills? Come join @R_Mallarino , katie goodwin , @_JorgeMoreno and me this Wintersession: my.princeton.edu/OWCE/rsvp_boot…
Our department Princeton MolBio is committed to increasing the participation of students with exceptional ability and promise who will bring a #diversity of viewpoints and cultures to the #sciences #STEM. Pls apply to our MOLBIO Scholars program: molbio.princeton.edu/research/schol… Please RT

A postdoc told me today that she is leaving Princeton soon because it has been too much on her family and she can't afford to be here anymore. Here is some context to understand why if you are a postdoc with a family at Princeton University, you are fucked. To give you some context...
Princeton University You should definitely NOT do this. Your postdocs are rolling in money, especially those with kids.
Today, everyone knows who's got the power. Now it's time for University of California to settle fair contracts with all 48,000 workers who make this University run. @UAWonStrike #FairUCnow fairucnow.org/support
