Never more hungry than after fieldwork in cold water.

Congrats Bluesky for now having enough content to make me go not one but TWO stops past my train station before looking up.

I’m a year in from starting my own lab and have yet to come up with a good lab name. Feels like so much pressure!

Jane out here doing the work as always.

Hey Tessa, these are great! Would you mind adding me to the second women in ocean, please.

There comes a point where you start being able to give your former supervisors/mentors some good advice and wow, that’s really lovely.

Me: we should bring back serving food at department seminars!

Me giving a talk while watching my colleagues eat cheap pizza: oh, wait.

I bought this teeny, adorable poinsettia today in hopes that it can do some very heavy lifting this holiday. So far, it’s delightful.

You get the start up. You spend the first month ordering ALL THE THINGS. And the next 3-5 months waiting for all the things to be delivered I guess.

Come work with me :) I’m recruiting a post-doc to collaborate on a funded coral population genomics project! Flexibility to develop additional projects in marine ecol-evol. (Deets: 2yr contract with possible extension, start within next ~6 months, good pay/benefits/work-life balance.)

I guess this is more a multi-author, multi-version problem but anyways, you’re still welcome.

I was today years old when I learned: if you’re loosing your mind on an unwieldy track changes doc of a MS during major rev, you can use Compare in word of the OG vs Rev version and it will create a fully tracked doc for you. U’re welcome.

Started a new (TT) position this month, start up ready to spend. Need to order EVERYTHING. Instead I’m paralyzed by having to submit a taxi reimbursement. The learning curve for a new system of academic bureaucracy is steep.

We have a cool study coming from Hong Kong! Just finishing the revisions so maybe not that useful quite yet. Happy to share a preprint if you’re interested. Also, Hi!
