Thrilled to share this preprint from my postdoc w/ @joannalkelley Studying Zoarcoidei, we detected gradients in antifreeze protein (AFP) copy number across habitat temperature and pressure driven by homologs translocated out of an ancestral AFP array biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

NOAA led State of the Climate 2023 report published in BAMS is out. The cover is a pair of images I took of a glacier that dissappeared in 2023 after 40 years of our continuous monitoring, overall the cryosphere not faring well. @NOAAClimate @ametsoc ametsoc.org/index.cfm/ams/pu…

Our work on caddisfly phylogenetics is out today in @RSocPublishing Proc B! I started this work as a wee PhD student, and I am really pleased to have it out. Thank you to all of my co-authors who were so patient and helpful.
