Today marked an exciting day in my career as I started my new position as research scientist at Advanta Seeds!
Conference time! I am grateful to have the opportunity to attend the Corteva New Frontiers Conference.
TGIF. There should also be TGFHPC (Thank God for High Performance Computing). I have been using the Arkansas High Performance Computing Cluster for my research. I was able to parallelize GWAS for many traits in a way that instead of taking 50 hours it only took 2 hours. #TGFHPC

I decided to upgrade to ChatGPT Plus, which includes DALL·E. I am quite impressed with the latest version of DALL·E. After describing an analogy of GWAS to DALL·E, here are some of the results. Finding genes is like finding a needle in the (genomic) haystack.

2023 was truly an exciting year for me:
-Got my second paper published from my PhD
-Big One! Successfully defended my PhD and became Dr. Murphy!
-Moved to Arkansas to start my postdoc.
2023! You were great! Here is to 2024 and what it has in-store!
Another experience that I am gaining in my postdoc is creating presentations with Quarto! 📊📚 While the learning curve is steep, I enjoy the seamless integration of code and content into Quarto, especially with interactive plots!

Plant a tree and stay focused with Forest! I started using the Pomodoro Method this year to supercharge my productivity. I have primarily used a good old timer for my Pomodoro sessions, but after discovering the Forest App and Chrome Extension, I will use this from now on!
The feature, known as Automatic Data Conversion, converted certain human gene names into dates and created massive errors in scientific research. morningbrew.com/daily/storie… via @MorningBrew

I am excited to announce I will be starting as an Assistant Prof at @UNLincoln Jan 2024. My lab will focus on applied quantitative genetics and plant breeding. I will have an immediate opening for a US domestic master's student Jan 2024. Please share
