My resolution for this term is to write at least 15 minutes each day with the exception of the day I teach all day. I want a fit bit that records how much I write. PS Email doesn’t count.

Just heard an absolutely fascinating talk on social behavior in vampire bats by Gerald Carter from OSU.

Just saw the interactive slide in The NY Times that allows you to examine the impact of number of days of social distancing on disease spread. I kept sliding it until I could get the fatalities down to 100,000. It takes 56 days. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Please call your Congress Person and register your concern about the ICE ruling concerning international student. I just called Rodney Davis. The lady that I spoke to said that I was the first call she had received on the matter. Davis’s office number is 217-791-6224.

OK fish heads. What's your opinion on the best shark paper for upper-level undergrads/grads? I like something relatively short that either (a) they can understand or (b) I can explain in 10-15 minutes. It can't be so dense that I have to give 20-30 minute lecture on the method

Right now, I have a recent Current Biology Paper - sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

These are just wonderful!

Happy to release Stacks 2.0Beta8. I think this will be our last 2.0 beta. Major changes include a fix to a performance bottleneck while smoothing and the addition of two measures (SNP + haplotype) of deviation from HWE. catchenlab.life.illinois.edu/stacks/source/…

I need help. I am talking at a liberal church tomorrow for the Darwin weekend. I found out that a local anti-Evolution person will be there. This person is hung up on the evolution of novel traits. I have my favorites in the talk now but please send me yours. #noveltraits
