There is still time to apply! I'll start reading the applications this Friday.

Come and work with us (the Kokkonuts) as a postdoc! Our research within (theory-evo-eco) is broad; let's say it's implicitly defined by the journal club papers we read. Which is why the application process includes a JC-related task, I hope it'll be a fun one for you! www.evoldir.net/brian/evoldi...

Andrew is great!

A future with this every summer is not inevitable. We have knowledge, technology, and pathways that can be leveraged. We can reduce emissions. Yes lower your footprint, but also write your representative about your swampy summer and ask them to make a change so you don't have to buy that AC.

This month I have discovered two super important meeting that I have apparently been skipping for the last two years, that I did not even know I was supposed to join. I think there needs to be some kind of cheatsheet or something handed to new faculty (or a greater use of calendar invites)

Hey team - it’s looking very likely that I’ll be hiring not one but two four year postdocs! We’re a fun lab with tons of theoretical and applied pop gen projects - broadly in polyploid, conservation, and human evo. Competitive salary, sunny San Diego! Do share with your about to defend grads!

I am heading up to Copenhagen from Frankfurt for #SMBE, while theoretically a very simple 10 hour trip, the [catastrophic] heat wave caused by man made climate change is making this very challenging. Today we have already had fires on the line, signal failures, and I am not even in Hamburg yet!
