I presented John McAuley's PhD work on the polygenic basis of individual recombination rates in house sparrows at #Evol2024. Now in press at Molecular Biology and Evolution. The live captioning did a commendable job throughout the conference 👏👏 #Evolution2024 www.youtube.com/watch?v=gptl...
If you missed my talk at #Evol2024 #Evolution2024 on coexistence of mixed cytotypes with Nico Andrade, Ethan Cockey, @jlandisbotany.bsky.social, Nic Kortessis, Jose Miguel Ponciano and Soltis lab you can see it here:

I had a great time presenting my undergraduate thesis at #Evolution2024 #Evol2024. Stay tuned for more, the manuscript is submitted!!!
In case you missed my talk at #Evolution2024 #Evol2024 on mosaic hybridization and secondary contact of three darter lineages with @fishgenomes.bsky.social, Tom Near and @dmacguig.bsky.social you can see it here (starting at 56:00)

If you missed my talk at #evol2024 #evolution2024 on convergence in transitions from red to yellow monkeyflowers/Mimulus (conflicting with @amylafountain!), we have a preprint up here:

It seems quite appropriate that this was featured in NYT at the same time as #Evolution2024 in Montréal…

.@ScottVEdwards1 points out that tenure and promotion committees are often a body stopping folks from publishing in society journals because they are often not familiar with them - Tracey Chapman points out that we need re-education on this. Big issue. #evol2024 #evolution2024
.@eseb_org reminds us that folks interested in ESEB 2025 (Barcelona, Spain) can pre-register until 2 Feb 2025 for a 5% discount off early bird registration! #evol2024 #evolution2024
Tracey Chapman (former EIC of @journal_evo) speaks about the importance of considering publishing in society journals - they fund society grants and help keep costs low for members of the society, plus often membership publishing benefits. #evol2024 #evolution2024
Another plenary speaker (ESEB President Tracey Chapman) stating a debt of gratitude to her mentors over her career. I really appreciate how senior folks in this conference have been acknowledging things like this. #evol2024 #evolution2024
Black text on a white background reads: "A career acknowledgment: I have been blessed with a wonderful and fulfilling career. This is not simply the result of innate talent or hard-work but entailed abundant good luck and undeserved privilege. I acknowledge this reality and the many individuals who unfairly missed out on opportunities that I was granted. I believe that this reality obliges me, and all similarly fortunate individuals, to honor those who have helped us and to give back to the community through teaching, service, and especially by doing what we can to advance the careers of individuals who have fewer privileges." Powerpoint captions are displayed below, mirroring the text.
David Baum's career acknowledgment for his plenary at #Evol2024 / #evolution2024 on Saturday. Alt-text is in the image but I will also thread it here. Such a powerful message, especially coming from someone so senior in the field! Made me tear up.
So glad to hear @ferrisifolius talk about how failure is normal in science, not talked about enough, and something that we all experience - during her awesome talk on spatiotemporal adaptation in Mimulus! #Evol2024 #evolution2024
If you're at #Evol2024 / #evolution2024 and identify as disabled, chronically ill, Deaf, neurodivergent, etc - or are an ally (or unsure of your identity!) who wants to support us - please join us for the morning coffee break in 725 at 10:45am!
Gentle reminder to folks screenshotting the program to remind people to come to your talk/poster - adding alt text or stating details in the text of your tweet (vs relying on the inaccessible image) means more people know where to come listen to you! #evol2024 / #evolution2024
A title slide from a talk with black text on a tan background. The title reads "Integrative investigation of within-species floral shifts in monkeyflowers (Mimulus/Erythranthe) reveals convergence on yellow flowers and possible reversals to bee pollination". There are also photos of red and yellow monkeyflowers, drawings of bee and hummingbird pollinators, and the John Innes Centre logo as well as author and contact details.
Come join me at 11:45am on Sunday 28 July in room 520C (symposium "Convergent evolution in natural experiments") to hear about parallel phenotypic and genetic shifts from red to yellow in two species of monkeyflowers/Mimulus/Erythranthe! #evolution2024 #evol2024
Really excited for the start of today's "Convergent evolution in natural experiments" symposium here in #evol2024 / #evolution2024 in 520C! I'm speaking at 11:45am, come join me!
#evolution2024 / #evol2024 - posted on the social part of the app - first table inside 220D (across from Yale Press) is special dietary needs table (vegan/gluten free/allergy specific items). please don't take food you do not need from this table however!
Reading this article on neurodiversity in ocean sciences while sitting in the Quiet Room (441) here at #Evol2024 / #evolution2024. Well worth a read.

Amazing talk by @JessicaLWareLab on the Black in Natural History Museums network/program. Really setting a standard for inclusivity work and some great resources too! Check out www.blackinnhms.org

Just a reminder that the monkeyflower/Mimulus/Erythranthe/Diplacus talks list for #Evol2024 #Evolution2024 is here if that's your thing!

Fantastic plenary on the STEM Scholars Program providing opportunities for underrepresented minorities (and much more in the #DEI space) from @coreywelch.bsky.social to kick off #Evolution2024
So excited for this IDEA Plenary by @CoreyWelch_STEM! VERY well deserved award by such a great scientist and DEIJ advocate. #evolution2024 #evol2024
Loving the subtitles on the IDEA Award plenary powerpoint talk! #evol2024 #evolution2024 #accessibility
Very excited to be visiting Montréal for #Evolution2024! Enjoyed a little beautifully green downtime this afternoon ahead of what’s promising to be a full-on few days 🤓
image of poster header, title: function of conspicuous primate natal coloration
I'll be at #Evol2024 #evolution2024 — if you want to hear/chat about conspicuous primate babies, I'll be at poster board C17 on July 27.
Also keen to chat with folks about birds, colour, sensory ecology etc.
(really miffed autocorrect removed the u from colour 🫠)

Heading to the airport (London Heathrow) in less than two hours for my flight to Montreal! Looking forward to seeing many of you at #evolution2024. Let's hope the wheelchair-in-cabin fight goes easily this time :-/
