New paper! We can do functional genomics to study how genes affect behavior in wild, non-model organisms— but it takes lots of dedication. Congrats to @evolutionsultan and kudos for the dedication to making this possible in social wasps!

If you’re into scary movies, listen to @GreenLeftArrow and I discuss The Exorcist III in the latest episode of @guyswerescrewed! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/guy…
To celebrate my b-day, look at our manuscript in @InsSociaux! We report our successes and less-than-successes when developing RNAi in paper wasps. Of special interest to anyone considering RNAi in non-model systems. @Amy_L_Toth @IDsignals @AndrewGuinness link.springer.com/article/10.100…
Blinding reviewers to a manuscript's authors is a nice idea, but it's nearly impossible to not figure out whose paper I'm reviewing from the species, location, and questions being addressed.
I got a job offer and a paper accepted and my lab mates and I just won the departmental biology trivia night! Good day!
