Another week of Sunday volleyball from the sidelines ๐ but Garbanzo (hello, what a perfect name for her!!) makes a good spectating buddy. #figaday 4.285/n #year4
Frustrated to still be hobbling around, but at least I can sit/stand from the floor now to do culture transfers. More importantly, we're thrilled to be getting cultures ready to welcome back rotation student Jonas Larson as a permanent member of the lab! #figaday 4.284/n #year4
Playtime. #SciencewithFriends #figaday 4.282/n #year4
Maybe today's the day I'm finally "anonymous blobfish." Finally feeling sufficiently pain free to try editing w/o being a total rewriting jackass. #figaday 4.281/n #year4
Doesn't look that fancy/different, but I learned how to use options(scipen) to kill scientific notation in axis labeling for this! #figaday 4.280/n #year4
First qqplot in a hundred million years (sorry for the delay, i was too grumpy yesterday b/c of missing volleyball and transient inability to walk) #figaday 4.279/n #year4
Feeling so grateful for and proud of amazing trainees-turned-friends, who were fabulous hosts all week (and even held my hand for stitches before rushing me to the airport -- in other news, sidewalks are still uneven, Boulder healthcare is exceptional, and I am 100% OK) #figaday 4.278/n #year4
Obviously when you're struggling with one model, the right thing to do is fly halfway home and write down another model. So lucky to have such brilliant, kind early-career collaborators! #figaday 4.277/n #year4
Stole this from Dr. Detmer's excellent latest paper. We used a ๐ฆ metaphor for approaching ideas throughout her dissertation, so Raine chose #manu colours (g-thomson.github.io/Manu/) for this, the most elusive of her chapters. Read more: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #figaday 4.275/n #year4
Of course on Julian's first day back from Antarctica he's already cranking on paper revisions. Now I gotta figure out how to automate an analysis for him! #figaday 4.272/n #year4
This week's visit to @suleles.bsky.social and her lab is off to a great start! #figaday 4.271/n #year4
Ten 10-out-of-10 presentations by our fantastic ecological modeling students mean I'm recycling a figure from the expansion files today. M. pulex is such a weirdo. #figaday 4.269/n #year4
Giving the victory lap lectures this week: Yay, we did 9 weeks of math biology, now see all the cool stuff it can do that I'm not going to examine you on. #figaday 4.268/n #year4
It took me two hours to make this highly imperfect outline but I've done it. #figaday 4.267/n #year4
Submitted two papers this week so I feel like that means it's OK that I spent #Caturday playing with #meetCapone. #figaday 2.265/n #year4
Me: "OK I gotta go back to the lab."
Colleagues: "Of course she does, it's Holly."
Not my fault the denaturation incubation is perfectly timed for a 1-cocktail break. #figaday 4.264/n #year4 #overlyhonestmethods
Just me trying to schedule a meeting with 7 of my closest colleagues ๐๐ญ๐ . For the grad students in the audience, this is why we gotta schedule your committee meetings months in advance. #figaday 4.263/n #year4
Fun visit from Allison Shaw chatting about mutualisms (between people, as well as between organisms). Grateful to be part of a generous and thoughtful community of theoreticians. #figaday 4.262/n #year4
When the reviewers say Fig 1 should have some new data so you insert gratuitous UExM. #figaday 4.260/n #year4
Year 4 had an amazing time visiting Foyles! ๐ They loved exploring the shelves, choosing their own books, and discovering exciting new stories to enjoy.
