"How do we better capture Jeremy Bearimy?" - this may be the best slide title I've ever seen. @pseudacris's talk is off to a great start. #evol2019

And lastly, here's the retweet network for #Evol2019. In general, it's pretty well connected (although slightly less so than in 2016). Some of this is driven by overall number of tweets, but not all (e.g. @ebsessa, @duffy_ma, and @mrvaidya are central despite fewer tweets)

Next, here's a word cloud of the most frequently discussed topics in the #Evol2019 hashtag. Really cool to see words like "childcare", "welcoming", and "diversity" in there - I think that illustrates all the effort that's been going into making this such an inclusive meeting!

I tried re-running some of Twitter analysis that @tek_keller did for #Evol2016 on #Evol2019 (thanks to @CancerConnector for the suggestion and @ScarboroughJess for help doing it!). First, up we have total number of tweets (showing highest 40). @omearabrian's clearly in the lead!

Great back-to-back talks by Wagner lab postdoc Chad Brock and former postdoc @liz_mandeville at #Evol2019 on hybridization and evolution in cichlids and trout. Liz is looking for a grad student in her new lab at the University of Guelph!

Amazing work on cleaner shrimp / fish mutualism in @EleanorCaves #ASNAmNat young investigator prize talk. Incredible videos of the interaction and inspiring talk. #Evol2019

REMINDER!
If you’re at #AOS19AK #Evol2019 or any other ecology conference, we need folk to take part in our exercise of seeing how social these events are. See below. Thanks!

Hey #Evol2019, come see my personal hero @JohannaHarvey15 talk about climate and host associations of avian malaria in room 557 @ 4:15. This is a side project from her dissertation that she’s worked her butt off on during her free time, all while finishing her cancer treatment!

Fascinating work by @digitalwright on estimating the number of evolutionary trajectories leading to antibiotic resistance - he estimates there are ~100 for the example bacteria/drug pair he showed! #Evol2019

Like coding evolutionary models in C++? Wish it were easier to have nice user interfaces without sacrificing speed or code maintainability? Come talk to me about the Empirical library at the #Evol2019 software bazaar! Or check out the docs (in progress):...

The wave of @MarineEvoEcoLab research continues to roll at #Evol2019 tonight! We have posters by @MadMolecularMan and @maggie_schedl, as well as software demonstration of dDocent at the #iEvolBio software bazaar!

Really cool talk by @VinCannataro on inferring effect sizes of mutations in cancer from data on how common they are relative to what we'd expect given mutation rate. And they released the technique as an R package: https://github.com/Townsend-Lab-Yale/cancereffectsizeR #Evol2019

The #Evol2019 conference always smells like popcorn, but there is no popcorn.

I like how @KAMarske provided such a succinct take-home message for her talk: "Biogeography shapes origin, ecology shapes migration." #Evol2019

Great talk on gekko diversification by @jamoaks: Island connectivity looks like it's less important for divergence than we might expect. Within-island habitat heterogeneity probably matters more. Cool phylogenetic methods too! #Evol2019

Really cool opening talk of the evolutionary ecology session at #Evol2019 by Zachary Wood! He has a really cool experimental design for parsing out the effects of selection, plasticity, and stochasticity in mosquitofish.

My kombucha mother has been dropped off at its babysitter (thanks @ptchivers), which means I am now set to begin the long journey to #Evol2019, #AOS19AK, and the US leg of #fieldseason2019. Looking forward to catching up with folks!

Has anyone else had problems paying for registration for #Evol2019? I cannot get it to accept my university travel card. @Evol_mtg @sse_evolution
