I was so fortunate to work with @rejectresubmit.bsky.social on wrapping up some work from my postdoc with @stepheniwright.bsky.social. Check out our very cool paper pulling apart the history of sex chromosomes in Rumex! academic.oup.com/evlett/artic...

Not the only path to success, but if you're someone with a theory / methods background, doing your postdoc in an empirical lab can be great. You're self-sufficient on the methods side, and seeing the data can inspire new ideas. You also get shiny in-house data to test your methods on!

I've been hesitant to comment on all the shit going on since it's not currently in my jurisdiction, but I just wanted to share I am still deeply hopeful for a long term career in US science and I am committed to riding (and fighting) the storm and making things work in my lab at U of R.

Preprint with postdoc @kerrycobb.bsky.social! When processes (e.g., ghost introgression) are omitted from training data, machine learning approaches are error-prone. Domain adaptation allows accurate inferences of introgression in the presence of unmodeled processes! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Winters are so much warmer than they used to be in Ontario, it's unbelievable. Every year now in the dead of winter we have days where it's light sweater or even t shirt weather. This basically never happened 10-20 years ago

Have had some good chats recently about pivoting to non-profit and society journals. A point to share/underline is that such options exist across the "prestige" spectrum. Some examples in the image. All heavily subjective of course; would love to hear thoughts from others!

you need to be phylogenetics-maxxing. you should be doing quartet summary and concatenated ML / Bayesian inference. you need to be calculating concordance factors and bootstrap scores. you need to map phenotypic characters on your tree with pretty color labels. you need to run PICs
