Delighted to share our new perspective article Journal of Evolutionary Biology: rising evidence suggests unexpectedly robust link btw micro- and macroevolution. It challenges past views of evolution and calls for interdisciplinary research. #Evolution #EvoDevo #Paleontology 1/7 doi.org/10.1093/jeb/vo…

The single greatest misunderstanding about science by the public is that scientists solve problems; in reality, scientists are primarily concerned with creating them.

My entire team wrote an opinion paper about Common misconceptions of speciation research. Each section is written by 1-2 team members. The bulk of the writing happened during two writing retreats. It was a lot of fun and I am very happy with the result. academic.oup.com/evolinnean/art…

The way to go! I am in bluesky now! :) #Bluesky

Special Issue: Inferring macroevolutionary patterns and processes from microevolutionary mechanisms Wow! A lot of interesting papers to read in here! academic.oup.com/jeb/issue/37/12

Rethinking ‘Statistical Significance’ – why it may be a misleading measure in data science. A thought-provoking read by Samuele Mazzanti on Towards Data Science. 🔍📊 [buff.ly/49A05CX] #DataScience #Statistics #MachineLearning #Research #DataAnalysis

OMG, I want to live in this article! Spiegehalter puts in words exactly how I approach probability: it doesn't exist as an objective measure, but it's still useful to pretend it does. In a way, it feels like Calibrated Bayes, my favorite kind of Bayesian!

Bayes' Theorem, clearly explained:

Evolutionary implications of a deep-time perspective on insect pollination 🌺🪲 David Peris et al. review the current knowledge on insect pollination of gymnosperm and angiosperm plants, highlighting the relevance of the study of the fossil record. doi.org/10.1111/brv.70…

Contrary to popular belief, what is important in science is as much its spirit as its product: it is as much the openmindedness, the primacy of criticism, the submission to the unforeseen, however upsetting, as the result, however new that may be.– F Jacob nature.com/articles/s4158…

Bayes' theorem is used to update the probability for a hypothesis as more evidence or information becomes available. Bayes' approach to probability was notably different from the frequentist approach, which dominated statistical methods at the time.

Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

The joy of science isn’t in the certainty; it’s in the struggle to make sense of the chaos.

There's a huge difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something. We talk in fact-deficient, obfuscating generalities to cover up our lack of understanding.

Not a single one of the cells that compose you knows who you are, or cares. - Daniel Dennett
