What an exciting idea! I'm a postdoc working on phylogenetic comparative methods (esp. speciation/extinction models), currently developing causal inference approaches (for diversification, trait evolution, ...). My talks can lean more empirical/methodological depending on interest.

Octavia Butler has a piece I assign to all grad students who are writing up: A Positive Obsession.
The gist: Do it poorly. Do it weird. Do it until writing feels natural and you canβt live without it.
Get the awful first draft out and build from there.

I'll have more info in a few weeks when I get back from fieldwork but I'll be recruiting 2 graduate students to begin in 2026 (1 PhD, 1 MS). My lab investigates macroevolutionary dynamics using phylogenetic methods & the fossil record. Please share with students having strong research interests!

Today is the day! Go visit @alencarlrv.bsky.social's poster to check the work she's brilliantly leading with the participation of a stellar team (and me)! See some cool stuff about the evolution of ovi/viviparity and climate in squamates, trying to uncover its hidden dynamics! #evol2025

What a great week at the 2025 Evolutionary and Quantitative Genetics Workshop! This was a fanstastic opportunity to practice scaling from micro- to macroevolution from some of the leading researchers in the field (in-between herping excursions, of course). Looking forward to reuniting at #evol2025!

Iβm doing background research on the history of science funding in the US. Does anyone have specific info on how early biologists in the late 1800s and early 1900s US funded their research? I have the general picture but looking for citeable sources & details about individuals.
