"I know there's a lot of concern about the proliferation of journals, slop in the in the literature — the best way to combat this is to publish in society-owned journals." — @asn-amnat.bsky.social President @beckyfuller82.bsky.social preaching the Gospel #Evol2026

I’m here at #evol2026, as is a sizable chunk of Systematic Biology’s editorial board (academic.oup.com/sysbio/pages...). Early career folks: Please feel free to grab us to talk about publishing in the journal. We are here to help!
