We will be talking about #penstemon evolutionary genetics at #evol2023! Poster by Hoyt Williams on thursday, talks by Ben Stone, Luke Wheeler, and Zack on friday, and a talk by me on sunday! Looking forward to seeing everyone in abq!!!

Wake up early at #botany2023 to hear new work on #penstemon floral evolution!! Josh Stevens relates petal reflectance to pigments in a spectacular hybrid zone Trinity Depatie uses phylogenomic and morphological data to describe the evolution of personate flowers

The view from Mono Pass, nearly 12,000 ft above sea level. Shocked to find Penstemon newberryi here in the alpine zone — it’s not usually up this high!

Anyone in these areas of Silene menziesii that would be willing to collect some leaves and/or seeds? It’s towards the end of the flowering season in most of its range but might still be hanging around. It’s a spp I missed, would be eternally grateful! inaturalist.org/taxa/79111-Sil…

Our study is now in print! We examined genetic divergence between bee- vs. hummingbird-pollinated populations of #penstemon and find they're all mixed up ... surprisingly few loci distinguish the two types!

In this piece I shared my thoughts on the switch to hummingbird pollination and the evolutionary genetics of complex adaptations. I'm very grateful for the opportunity to contribute this!

Many folks know this already but wanted to make an official announcement: I am super pleased to share that I will be starting my lab at Mississippi State University Mississippi State in Fall 2025! We will be recruiting grad students and a lab tech to start as soon as August ‘25
