It's going to be quite a week, so here's some totally real footage of a pika in the wilderness.
I remember breaking down to my Ph.D. advisor about how stupid I felt while troubleshooting a problem in my project when she handed me this paper. Years later it is still relevant to young students starting off in Science. It's ok to feel stupid, we all do on a regular basis.
Anyone out there know how to troubleshoot DIYABC-RF? Having issues adjusting my priors so that my simulated and observed SNP datasets aren’t mismatched. Could it be the scenarios I am testing?? Any and all help greatly appreciated! #diyabc #genomics #popgen #populationgenetics
And there’s a blog post!
Curious about the population genomics of invasive deer on the Haida Gwaii archipelago?! Check out the most recent work by my fellow #russelloecgl PhD student @_btburgess! nature.com/articles/s4200…
Stoked to share that our latest pika paper (and the first of my dissertation research) is published in @HeredityJournal! Check out the current issue's cover which features an incredible photo taken by fellow #russelloecgl PhD student @_btburgess. nature.com/articles/s4143…
Y'all, mark your calendars! You'll definitely want to check out this excellent talk about an application of #GTseq for use in fisheries management at virtual #Evol2021. #russelloecgl

Come watch a fellow #russelloecgl lab member Bryson Sjodin talk about pika whole genome assembly in the Genomics/Ecology section, 11:40am, June 21st 2021! Whole-genome improvements are always welcome :) Also #pika are cute little buggers. #Evol2021
My favorite part of data analysis is when you forsake the old gods and sacrifice an alpaca to get something in R to work.

Very very excited to share our latest paper out in @Ecol_Evol! 🐍🧬 Genotyping‐in‐Thousands by sequencing reveals marked population structure in Western Rattlesnakes to inform conservation status onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…
Welcome to Twitter @_btburgess! Glad you’ve finally joined @changsarahl, @faridasamadzada, and I in reppin’ the ECGL 🧬
Have you collected or do plan to collect minimally invasive DNA samples? Read our interview with the authors (@_daniAschmidt & Michael Russello) of a recent paper exploring the use of GT‐seq for minimally invasive samples molecularecologyblog.com/2020/02/17/int… (photocredit Marcus Atkins)
#PopulationViability analysis projects decline of protected #rattlesnake population due to #roadkill in new @ESR_IR study by @s_a_winton et al., highlighting need for #conservation measures to reduce roadkill of long-lived #reptiles doi.org/10.3354/esr010…
Finallllly joined twitter! Naturally, my profile photo is of me and my amazing masters defense rattlesnake cake courtesy of @changsarahl @faridasamadzada and twitterless Brock😀
