🚨 We're hiring computational evolutionary biologists! 🚨 Boosting this - industry evolutionary biology jobs don't come along often, so if you're excited to apply your computational evolutionary biology skills to cutting-edge problems, let's talk! 🧪🧬💻

Nice writeup of the impacts of great instructor (yes, this is a Brandon Gaut stan account) www.bio.uci.edu/students-bri...

Do you like Arabidopsis thaliana? Do you like linked selection? Are you at #PEQG26? Well you're in luck! Come by my poster 244W tonight, June 10th, and hear about my attempts to estimate the extent of linked selection in Arabidopsis thaliana evolution experiments.

Excited to be at #PEQG26! I have a poster tonight on measuring selection on intraspecies variation in large microbial communities (415W), would love to hear what folks think!

How do plants locally adapt to challenging habitats despite ongoing gene flow? Come find me tomorrow at poster 236W to chat about life history divergence on small spatial scales in the yellow monkeyflower! #PEQG26

My poster number is 375! Ohh, looking forward to checking that out!!

Having a great first experience at #PEQG26 ! So many cool projects and friendly people. Come visit me at my poster tomorrow to talk about TEs and SVs!

I am recruiting a #postdoc to work on assembling and analyzing #genomes of the amazing Furnariidae. Let’s unlock the secret behind their #evolution. The official application portal will be available soon at www.uno.edu/careers. Feel free to contact me for details at [email protected]

The list of Ecology/Evolution/Marine Bio Labs recruiting grad students for Fall 2027 is live! PIs enter your position info here: forms.gle/MAGd4ohyPeoY... students (and PIs not recruiting) share the composite list: docs.google.com/spreadsheets... Please share widely! 🧪

postdoc alert 🚨! NIH-funded postdoc in my lab to work on Ancestral Recombination Graphs in space. Please spread the word widely in your networks, and please reach out if you're interested! (2-3yr position, start date flexible, pay/benefits good!). details here: careers.umich.edu/job_detail/2...

So no publication fees, no conferences, no international collab, and we can terminate or reject your grant anytime for any reason. This might have some impact on how science works, folks. And maybe just maybe not a positive one.

Update! The posting for the postdoc opening in my lab is up! Apply here: unc.peopleadmin.com/postings/319...

Friends don't let friends copy pasta AI-generated citations of imaginary papers

We are hiring! We’re excited to recruit a postdoc to our lab at UC Davis to work on plant immune engineering and single-cell analyses of plant pathogen interactions. Apply by June 1. Please repost. www.coakerlab.org/postdoctoral...

What a nice day: Great people that I know getting tenure, getting into the national academy, or wrapping up their last PhD Committee meeting as they think about future postdoc positions. Science is awesome and the people that make it happen are awesome. Keep pushing forward everyone.

Congrats to @jrossibarra.bsky.social on being elected to NAS!!! 🌽💻🧬🎉

Please circulate: I will have a postdoc opening soon, ideally with a start date sometime this summer or fall. If you're interested in empirical population genetics, computational methods development, and/or evolutionary modeling via simulation, don't hesitate to reach out. For more info on the lab:

I'm hiring a postdoc (start date flexible) and a PhD student (for Fall 2027) to work in any area of computational phylogenetics! More info here: mhibbins.github.io I will be attending both PEQG and Evolution in June, so please reach out if you want to chat at these meetings!

Thank you @adrigov.bsky.social for the nice summary in Plantae.org of our paper!

Excited to share our new preprint! 🍇🧬 We analyzed 639 genomes across 48 grape species to understand how hybridization drives adaptation. • ~14% of average Vitis genome is introgressed • Most parallel adaptations are shared via gene flow • Two "hybrid species" are actually hybrid swarms

I am seeking a postdoc to join my group at UCLA -- ideally the candidate would have some experience in either population genetics or microbes/microbiome (computational background needed). We have a range of projects and are happy to tailer to your interests. Please dm/email me if interested.

Interested in working to apply ARGs to real data in messy plant genomes? (Yeah it sounds hard). DM or email!

Friends, please help spread the word about our microbiology REU program at Montana State University. www.montana.edu/mbi/reu/ Each student receives a stipend ($7000 for 10 wks). Travel compensation, room, and board are also provided. Details in the attached pic--Feb 14 deadline 🧫🧪🦠#microsky

Congrats @jeffgroh.bsky.social et al. Some avocado trees open female-phase flowers in the morning & then male in afternoon. Others show complementary pattern (m->f), to synchronize pollination of two types. Jeff show this to be a >45Mya polymorphism at a transcription factor across 100s of species.

Check out our new paper! :)

Our plant-focused REU program, led by Prof Nagel, is open for applications, please forward to undergrads and reskeet etap.nsf.gov/award/7573/o... 🌱 🧪

Hello bluesky community! I'm hiring a postdoc to do machine learning in population genetics. Starting to build up a lab at Indiana University Bloomington where I just started a faculty position. Apply with the below link: indiana.peopleadmin.com/postings/30325

Looking forward to my lecture on Wednesday @ucriverside.bsky.social in the Botany & Plant Sciences seminar series! I’ll present some of our recent work on forward time whole genome sims & demographic inference in the polyploid continuum. See y’all there? plantbiology.ucr.edu/seminars

Congratulations to @jeffgroh.bsky.social on the publication of his paper on an ancient balanced polymorphisms controlling heterodichogamy in two genera of wingnuts. The paper shows the putative turnover & reversal of dominance of a mating type polymorphism www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Paper is finally out!! Thanks to reviewers we dig deeper on the differences between domestication events -spoiler alert: it doesn't matter that much. nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

I'm recruiting a postdoc for my group (based in beautiful Eugene, OR). Please get in touch if you're interested, esp if you'd like to chat at #ASHG25!

I keep trying to get people to recognize that my having a PhD says a lot more about me being stubborn than me being smart.

Please share! I'm looking for a postdoc. The position is to lead one of the following projects: 1) regulation of plant specialized metabolism by cell fate, or 2) foliar embryogenesis in the succulent plant Kalanchoe. Learn more abt projects: cxli233.github.io/cxLi_lab/res...

I'm hiring a computational biologist interested in complex trait genetics using deep learning approaches. Reach out to me, if interested.

@emccnicotiana.bsky.social @jlandisbotany.bsky.social any thoughts on this?

Don’t be afraid to share your writing. There are six Sharknado movies.

Wonderful (and humble) essay on mentorship by Brandon Gaut, on occasion of Brandon receiving the inaugural Mentorship Award of @genetics-gsa.bsky.social. I hope this will be widely read! academic.oup.com/genetics/art...
