Excited to present my work at Evolution this Sunday (June 21) at 10 AM in Room 25C. If you’re interested in the evolutionary dynamics shaping rarity through time, please come check it out! #Evol2026
Evolution title slide: "Rare today, common tomorrow: Evolutionary transitions and non-equilibrium dynamics shape species rarity".

Excited to share our new paper in @methodsinecoevol.bsky.social on data and code archiving at @britishecologicalsociety.org journals. TL;DR: Data archiving rates are high, code archiving rates are low, documentation needs to be improved! besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.....

Hey #ESA2025! Come learn how phylogenetics can make almost everything in life and research better - except chocolate. Chocolate is still #1. SS 01 - Breaking Barriers to Incorporating Phylogenetics in Ecology Monday, Aug 11 10:30 AM

Great get-together with @princetonupress.bsky.social at #Evol2025 to discuss the process of writing a science book. Check out the booth in the Grand Hall to learn more. You can also enter a raffle to win a copy of my book.

Excited to be talking about where rarity comes from and how it persists through evolutionary time tomorrow at #Evol2025! Swing by the Evolutionary Ecology IV session at 4:45 PM to hear more about the evolution of multidimensional rarity in plants 🌱
