We’re going to be seeing a lot of bad haircuts when this quarantine ends.

Hi everyone! This isn't how I normally use Twitter, but now that I'm finished with 8 years of grad study, I'm on the market for a job in #scicomm or as an editor. I'm putting out a steady stream of apps, but if you happen to know of open positions, I'd love to hear about them 🙂

How old are moss sex chromosomes? Do they have strata? Do they degenerate? Dr. Sarah Carey has answers - check out biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Friends, join me in toasting Dr ⁦Dr. Leslie M. Kollar⁩ who today defended a killer PhD thesis on the genetics of sexual dimorphism in Ceratodon purpureus

I am pleased to present our newest manuscript with Karl Grieshop Stuart McDaniel Todd Rosenstiel (and several others not on twitter) on the genetic architecture of sexual dimorphism in the smelly moss, Ceratodon purpureus. (1/4) royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Today at 11:15am (room 16) in the Genomics IV section, @eleanore_ritter (Niederhuth lab) is presenting some of her dissertation work on “The impact of clonal propagation on DNA methylation in angiosperms”! #Evol2022

@ja_pelosi is going to give a fascinating talk you won’t want to miss on whole genome duplication in ferns! 10:15am Grand ballroom A UF Department of Biology @ebsessa #Evol2022

Interested in population differences in plasticity and my plans to study genetic architecture of plasticity? Come chat with me at poster 103 tonight! #Evol2022

BREAKING: White House issues new policy that will require, by 2026, all federally-funded research results to be freely available to public without delay, ending longstanding ability of journals to paywall results for up to 1 year. Coverage coming on ScienceInsider.

I'm super excited to share my first 1st-author publication with the world! doi.org/10.1101/2022.1… I and my advisor, Emily Josephs, tested a hypothesis proposed in a 2010 paper by Emilie Snell-Rood

🚨 We've got a new preprint out 🚨 - We developed a series of logical frameworks for analyzing how transposable element content contributes to structural variation (SV) within maize 🌽🧬🌽. How'd we do this + what did we find?? - 1/11

On my way to #MGM2023, excited to meet and talk with folks -- I'll be talking Saturday at 7:20 PM about our work looking at how TEs contribute to structural variation in inbred maize lines 🌽🌽

Relatedly, check out these awesome posters by @Hashtag_Read , Claire Menard, and Nathan Catlin building upon this work!

Hey #MGM2023, come and check out our method for detecting TE presence/absence in a maize diversity panel at poster 224. Emily Josephs, Adrian Platts, and with collaboration with Manisha Munasinghe and Nathan Springer.
