Very excited to have participated in this interesting work unraveling how we estimate generation time in natural populations. I didn't appreciate before this how intertwined generation time and population growth rates were. Enjoy! journals.uchicago.edu/doi/full/10.10…

Revisiting part of my 2020 x-country bike route and places I missed, sadly by car…but in preparation for the book! First stop #GeorgeFloydSquare in Minneapolis. Very moving #BLM

I thought the bridge over route 2 of the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail near Concord, MA was going to open in November, but it's open now, and it's beautiful! shar.es/afse5Z . Enjoy the nice day on two wheels, wherever you are! Friends of the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail #adventurecycling

Overjoyed that Svante PƤƤbo has won the #nobelprize2022 !! A great boost for the importance of #evolutionarybiology! I had the honor of working in Allan Wilson’s lab UC Berkeley when Svante was a postdoc there. A truly exciting time. Congratulations šŸŽˆ Svante!!

It's #BlackHistoryMonth in the UK. University of Bristol just put on an amazing display of success in science by Africans and African Americans. There are some great scientists and several good friends in this display!

Very nice Special Issue on Reptile Evolution and Genetics mdpi.com/si/100806 put together by the incomparable Ettore Olmo. We were glad to contribute mdpi.com/2101076 #mdpianimals via Animals. Bottom line: we need more non-avian reptile genomes!

#phylogenetics software MP-EST 3.0 github.com/lliu1871/mp-est is finally out and available on #bioconda anaconda.org/bioconda/mp-est !! Species trees from thousands of rooted gene trees fast. And a likelihood, for better testing of hypotheses. Thanks Liang Liu and Gregg Thomas!

Very excited to see the paper "Likelihood-Based Tests of Species Tree Hypotheses" in Molecular Biology and Evolution academic.oup.com/mbe/article/40…. We need to return to direct hypothesis testing when using species trees, rather than the 'ol bootstrap. LRTs using gene trees as data are a great way to go!

Tens of thousands of Australians have marched today in support of recognition through a Voice. Let this spirit of solidarity carry our nation to a successful referendum next month. Let hope and reconciliation prevail. #VoteYes2023 #VoteYES23Australia

Very excited to share a news article about our paper on a nuclear genome of a little bush moa, the vision of the late Allan Baker Royal Ontario Museum, drawings by Wren Lu ā€˜19 Harvard Organismic & Evolutionary Biology. Great help from friends #Maori #Aoteroa from whom I learned much abcnews.go.com/International/…

Got a life bird for my birthday! #WillowFlycatcher in downtown Waitsfield, VT, while watching my daughter run the half Mad Marathon. I know…I’m sure I’ve seen before but never really connected song to great view. Nice #commonmerganser family on Folsom brook a bonus!
