Special Issue of @ScienceJlit that @cnsiscoking and I edited with 9 articles on literature, film, and TV about genetics. Great pieces on #OrphanBlack #XMen #District9 #SorryToBotherYou #bladerunner #IAmLegend #neverletmego and 5,200 TV medical shows. @kh_oliver @MsCynthiaPorter
I am honored and thrilled by this wonderful review of Literature, Science, and Public Policy: From Darwin to Genomics by Jerome de Groot. bsls.ac.uk/2025/03/clayton-j…
As a quick reminder, the book is available Open Access from Cambridge University Press.

The new edition to our magazine dropped today! Check it out here: vanderbilt.edu/evolution/mag… #Evolution @VanderbiltU Some featured departments: @vanderbiltEES @VandyPhysics @VUmedicine
ALT Cover page of Evolutionary Studies the Magazine, Fall 2022 edition. Four photos of houses and people in Malaysia. Text over the front highlighting work in E. coli and the use of the word "genetics" over 100 years.
Intrigued by @AarthiVadde's paper at @ASAP_artsNOW last weekend. She showed how CC licenses enshrine the principle of authorial rights as property. Requiring attribution maintains property rights, even as it enables free distribution.

It's a beautiful article, which includes lovely words about @hurricanejenny.
My friend Mehdi wrote a beautiful reflection on our walk through the Nordmarka forest in June and the @FuturelibraryNO as "a social infrastructure for practicing interpersonal and intergenerational trust." ursaminor.blog/2022/09/03/ar…
Here's an article of interest to my students in "Robots and Clones": nytimes.com/2022/09/02/techn…
Completed the final step--installing a water source for birds--to qualify our yard as a Certified Wildlife Habitat with the @NWF! Thank you, @genomemom, for getting me this bubbler as a late birthday present. ❤️

#BladeRunner is a SF classic, but how can we know if it’s representative of the treatment of genetics in popular culture? See how it compares w 409 SF films and TV shows w strong genetics content in “The End of Genetic Privacy in the Blade Runner Canon.” @ScienceJlit @kh_oliver
