New gig - who dis? 😊

visited two Irish websites in the past two days that had this kind of pastejacking pop-up attempt. -do not- follow these steps under any circumstances

Avocados come in 2 varieties - A-types start each day female and switch to male midday. B-types do the reverse. In work just published from the last chapter of my PhD, we show this system evolved 40+million yrs ago and is regulated by alleles of 1 transcription factor www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Balanced polymorphism in a floral transcription factor underlies the ancient rhythm of daily sex alternation in avocado | PNAS

In avocado and certain wild relatives in Lauraceae, a highly synchronized daily rhythm of floral sex timing promotes cross-pollination between two ...

San Diego Pride is such a beautiful vibe!❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜 #sandiegopride

Who did this? #worldcup #chemistry

After a long week of engaging and fascinating talks and conversations it's good to take in the sights. The Monterey Bay Aquarium is a must see, incredibly gorgeous view of the ocean! #PEQG26

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Really saddened to hear about Prof. Edwards diagnosis 😥 I'm hoping he gets the care he needs during this difficult time.

Hi peeps - my friend, @sandiegostate.bsky.social colleague & kelp forest restorationist, Prof. Matthew Edwards was recently diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer & his family is raising $ for his treatment and care. If you're able, please consider donating & sharing. Thanks! gofund.me/9551fd442

Congratulations to all awardees - especially to our lab's very own @trevormugoya.bsky.social! The next generation of genomics right there on one stage and pic! So proud of you, Trevor!

Aaah! New preprint from the Sethuraman Lab has dropped! Tamsen and I have been working on this for a while, and we can’t wait for your feedback. Short thread on our swanky new polyploid genome simulator, DemographiKs, and its functionality.

Shout out to the #rstats {performance} package. Its check_model() function is super helpful for model evaluation. #statistics #STEM

I felt this in my bones.

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

When I randomly think to myself I'd rather have root canal surgery than go through another git rebase operation 😫

Also before I broke for Spring, I worked on theoretical expectations for biases in estimates of Fst, nucleotide diversity, and Tajima’s D due to gene flow from an unsampled ghost population; and updated our 4 year old preprint and submitted it. Fun! Comments welcome.
