My first first-author paper has just been published! We conducted an experiment in Borneo and found that insects and fungi compensate for reduced seed predation when we excluded large vertebrates. Access for free here: nature.com/articles/s4146…

Who knew cyanobacterial isolations could be so pretty? I call this one “The many faces of Microcoleus”. #biocrust #cyanobacteria #microbiology

#SB202 suppresses voters, criminalizes compassion & seizes election authority from local + state officials. In 11 years, I never witnessed a massive bill approved at such speed and signed in such desperation. This wasn’t efficiency or principle. This is cowardice. #gapol 1/2

Are you a trans or non-binary scientist? Many of us are writing a letter to NSF to ask for improved gender options on forms and to allow for preferred/chosen names. Please message me if you would be interested in signing! (and Please RT!) docs.google.com/document/d/1if…

Calling ALL scientists: support your trans and gender diverse peers by signing our letter to the National Science Foundation. Google form linked with letter + questions to answer! Please RT + spread the word! ALL scientists are welcome, past or present. forms.gle/9Vsd6QYBJj9UNM…

New paper out in GBE (Genome Biology and Evolution) from the Miller lab! We show how the activity of a single transposase can fuel adaptation for many generations. Great collaborative work lead by Arkadiy Garber and Scott Miller, with Heidi Eliza🔬 💜🖤 and others! academic.oup.com/gbe/article/13…

I'm recruiting a post-doc! Flexible start (Fall/Winter 2022), lots of sequence data & tissues in hand to get you going, and lots of opp. to start new projects on placental phys., hypoxia, adaptation, and reproductive diversity in Peromyscus! Ad coming soon ...

Cyanobacteria in the Baltic Sea are blooming even in winter, this picture was take just a few days ago from Laajalahti #cyanobacteria #algae #algalbloom #winter #research #originbyocean #Helsinki

Another chapter of my dissertation out in Current Biology! We show that the functional divergence of Acaryochloris marina's light-harvesting complex has resulted in specialization on different far-red wavelengths for photosynthesis. authors.elsevier.com/a/1jDeA3QW8S6E…
