Great Docs is a
#python
pkg for creating beautiful Python package websites. We make it easy to use but also give you lots of options.

Ha! Spoke too soon 😣 The TICR Perl scripts for
#SNaQ
and
#PhyloNetworks
broke down with my own data, so I had to modified them for the new ARM64 architecture. Make sure to install an appropriate Perl version and use Rosetta2. Also, deleting the server portion and saving MB log files don’t hurt 🙃💻

I'm recruiting a PhD student to join my lab at the University of New Orleans starting in Fall 2025. Research topics will focus on building and using phylogenies to study the diversification of birds, with an emphasis on Neotropical bird radiations. Contact me if interested.

#SNaQ
tutorial ready for Systematics class at

! However, teaching Julia+a little Perl+a little Bash on top of our mid-level R background would be too much for one session… Should I just turn this into a week-long post summer-break workshop?
