Great, thank you!

Absolutely love Skype a Scientist (got my first Spring session as a scientist tomorrow morning!), but I do feel like this is not a match for the call here. A college class and a 1-on-1 interview. But I guess it could be a nice collaboration for the future, I may look into asking Sarah. Thanks!

PLEASE REPOST AND SHARE!

My intro biology course has an "Interview a Biologist" project where students connect with a wide range of biologists using cell/molecular tools.

If you are willing to speak with a student for ~30 minutes on Zoom, please fill out this form: forms.gle/BCjJPgURsgSr...

Amen, just taught a gene-editing and ethics course and we unfortunately had to discuss this guy and these awful ambitions 😫

Ryan! We just checked the first issue out and sang the song at the same time. But alas, there’s a typo at the end of the song (no more “where there’s a city crime-torn”).

In the immortal words of Galactus, “the fate of your world now rests in your hands!”

*Also, super exciting news!!!

The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl Wolverine, Deadpool, Doctor Doom, Thanos: There's one hero that's beaten them all-and now she's got her own ongoing series! (Not that she's bragging.) That's right, you asked for it, you got it, it's ...

Squirrel Girl is back - in Webtoon form! Marvel has reformatted our earliest adventures with Doreen, Nancy, Tippy-Toe and everyone else for online reading and is releasing 'em all for free on Webtoon! ENJOY

In this video, I learned that our new butterfly species is a larval grass flinger!!!

Look at that poo fly!

They're growing (and admittedly having a good time too!)

Pop-up museum with specimens?

I admit that it took me an embarrassingly long time to refold the zine during your SICB talk 🥴

Today marked a new era for the lab!

We're beginning our butterfly phase, rearing our own Squinting Bush Brown butterflies! Look at those adorable eggies!!!

Thanks so much Matthew, we had a blast!

So excited to have @matthewcobb.bsky.social join our Hacking Inheritance class today to discuss gene-editing, including the science, the history, and the ethics!

Highly recommend this book for all those interested in diving into this topic!

Thank you soooo much!

Thanks for coming!

Thanks so much! And yes, I can share with you Jess! And always happy to talk further.

Looking forward to our #SICB2026 session on Technology, Games, and Play in Biology Education tomorrow at 8am in Oregon 203! So many amazing talks and people lined up!

My talk at 8:45am on CYOA fun in an organismal biology class!

Boxing up the NSF at Eisenhower Av for the forced relocation. Boxes have “Details Matter” signage.

NSF

- Forced reorg

- POs down ~ 40% (DRP, most rotators not renewed, retirements)

- Forced move (and we have to pack and clean) to a building with no furniture, little to no conference space for panels, inadequate 🛜, …)

I personally love the boxes they gave us for packing.
“Details matter” 🙃

Thrilled to share that @corriemoreau.bsky.social and I have a new paper out in Evolution, digging into the varied ways that extreme worker plasticity impacts genome evolution in turtle ants!

Thank you! 😊

Getting fired up for my Entomology class's community outreach event this Saturday!

Using 1,000 butterfly and moth genomes to investigate evolution and climate change resilience A major milestone has been reached, with experts across Europe, including those at the Wellcome Sanger Institute in Cambridge, UK, sequencing 1,000 species of butterflies and moths. This includes almo...

1,000 butterfly and moth genomes have been sequenced… and guess what they are using them for?

This month's #InvertArtChallenge is one of our Pacific Northwest fireflies. They're largely overlooked because they don't light up in spectacular displays, although the larvae can glow. But they still deserve attention.

Excited to announce the final version of the Mosquito Cell Atlas is out now in @cellpress.bsky.social!! 🦟🩸

There is SO much left to find & investigate in this dataset (& the rich biology of the Aedes aegypti mosquito)! We hope this helps scientists in many fields!
