My department at Washington State University is recruiting an Assistant or Associate Professor in vector-borne disease 🕷️🦟🦠
Full job description is linked below.
Come join us on the Palouse!
👀There will be a Keystone Symposium with a focus on Vector-Pathogen Interactions to be held in Geneva, Switzerland in February 2027. It should be a great meeting and hope to see you there! www.keystonesymposia.org/conferences/...
Wildlife disease data, especially negative data, are one of the last types of data that ecologists just... don't share. We built a place for them to archive it - and now, journals are encouraging people to use it! Big congrats to @danjbecker.bsky.social on this push ❤️
So great to finally have this out!!
This isn’t fully true! You can request a manual postmark at a post office, you just need to know to do it. Just another thing to educate mail-in voters about.

A new genetic study in Science overturns the myth of the “London Underground Mosquito,” revealing that this common urban insect originated not below the cities of modern Europe, but in ancient Mediterranean civilizations more than a thousand years ago. https://scim.ag/43xWovB
I wrote an opinion piece about parental/family leave at UConn. I’m only ~75% happy with it but … something needed to be said. Many things actually. Loudly. Repeatedly. And with as many voices as possible.
