SFI welcomes Complexity Postdoctoral Fellow Maike Morrison.
@MaikeMorrison develops mathematical tools to quantify and compare biological variation — from species in ecosystems, to microbes in the gut, to ancestral lineages in humans. Her work draws on ecology, population genetics, and information theory to study the structure, diversity, and stability of populations.

So many terrific talks and posters today at #SMBE2024! I especially enjoyed this zine from @pleunipennings... conferences would be more fun with more zines

I'm stoked to be at #SMBE2024! If you're interested in variability/diversity, microbiomes, and/or non-traditional applications of FST, I would love to chat!

Hi #ESA2023 ! Come learn about the dynamics of colonization and community recovery in the human gut microbiome at my talk tomorrow, COS 87-2, at 10:15am in room E142.
We see long lags in colonization even after major antibiotic perturbations. I'd love to discuss why!
Hey #ESA2023! Interested in quantifying community stability or heterogeneity? I'm presenting a statistic to quantify variability across multiple relative abundance vectors (collab w/ @NoahARosenberg and @ksxue). I'd love to chat!
Weds 8/9 - 10:15am - B113

I'll briefly discuss my analysis of some incredible data recently generated by @ksxue. To hear her exciting results about colonization & transmission dynamics in microbial communities, check out her talk tomorrow!
Tues 8/8 - 10:15am - E142

Just got home from a terrific 1.5-month visit at @IARCWHO! Huge thank you to the @CancersRare team, especially @nl_alcala, for the opportunity. Exciting science and kind, generous people in a beautiful French city... could it get any better?
Nothing beats impromptu alpine topology lessons!

FSTruct: An FST-based tool for measuring ancestry variation in inference of population structure (2022)

Excited to share my first project of grad school, with @NoahARosenberg and @nl_alcala, “FSTruct: an Fst -based tool for measuring ancestry variation in inference of population structure.” doi.org/10.1101/2021.09.24.4… 1/
So, so grateful for the chance to attend the @sfiscience Complex Systems Summer School over the last few weeks. Hard to say goodbye to such dear friends/math buddies/collaborators. Project updates below! 🧵
Second, a stretch project for me--connecting scaling laws and time perception across life. Highlights included exciting chats with @ChrisKempes and Geoffrey West.

Next up, #ScalingLaws & #Time #Perception: studying flicker fusion threshold (fps) for different organisms, which varies greatly.

Highlight of @sfiscience #CSSS was this group of brilliant and intellectually diverse scientists. Can’t wait to see what new works comes out of these friendships!
I knew #PEQG22 was going to be fun, but not *that* fun! Huge thanks to the conference organizers and @GeneticsGSA for an amazing week. I'm so grateful to be in a field where people are not only doing exciting research, but are also so welcoming, kind, and encouraging.
Is working with @ksxue the key to getting a poster award?
So grateful for amazing mentors and collaborators!
Super proud of @GoldmanDoran and @MaikeMorrison for their poster awards at #PEQG2022 ! Way to represent our Stanford microbiome community.
If you're at #PEQG22 and you're interested in population structure, variability measures, and/or non-standard applications of FST, I'd love to chat at my poster (286T) on Thursday!
