So proud of Cinnamon Mittan and VERY excited to continue working with her and our collaborators on Mitchell's satyr butterfly conservation genomics! Nick Haddad Midwest Climate Adaptation Science Center W.K. Kellogg Biological Station EEB at MSU

Excited to share our pre-print for a shiny new Florida-Scrub Jay genome assembly and annotation! Long-read sequencing and a linkage map helped us add ~260 Mb of sequence and find a few more chromosomes in comparison to previous assemblies. Nancy Chen 陳嵐欣 ✨🧬 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

On a day like today, in 2016, David Jailaca re-encountered one of the most enigmatic little frogs of Ecuador, believed to be extinct for almost 30 years. Today we celebrate its rediscovery. Today is “Jambato Day.” 🐸🟠⚫

Congratulations to @Sprunger_PhD for her new grant to explore how regenerative ag practices enhance soil health & yield stability, evaluate the relationship between soil health & greenhouse gas emissions, & identify factors influencing farmer adoption of climate-smart practices!

Congrats to my PhD advisor Becky Fuller on being elected president of ASN! Becky Fuller
