    This is awful. Who would do such a thing as post web links to illegal sites where you can freely access all the scientific literature which should be free to access?

    There's also tricky issues that I wasnt full aware of before going to a women-in-science session discussing mental health. Eg. Uni. Mental health providers aren't mandatory reporters, receptionists/nurses are. Ie reveal no details in making appointments

    Thanks ! Also would encourage others (especially new hires!) to share their research/teaching statements. Email or pull request or fax or smoke signal.

    I was thinking about this tweet (certainly not a propos of an job as that will be online soon...). I wanted to plug database of teaching & research statements myself & have successful PUI statements there

    Gregor Mendel is widely credited as the father of genetics, for his discovery of the rules of hereditary. Did you ever wonder about Mendel's motivations for his research? My colleague Peter van Dijk did but was not satisfied by the relatively few primary sources...

    Honestly think it was probably 's undergrad genetics course. Thought they were weird as hell, never thought I'd actually study them, but keep getting drawn to them directly or indirectly. I really like things that make me think "that's really, really weird"

    Wow. In a class of 76 nobody had heard of McClintock. They might here a BIT more when we talk about transposons...

    I'm just going to rename tomorrow's lecture "Badass Women in Genetics". I finish up mutation with Frances Arnold, and then use Barbara McClintock to teach recombination. Will be rad.

    I believe says I'm supposed to always retweet praise.

    We read this preprint by et al. for lab meeting today. It was good, and spawned lots of interesting discussion. You should read it, too.

    It's probably a good thing had to cover my lecture on mutation for intro genetics this year. Here's the first slide of my following lecture from last time.
