My favorite answer to a final exam question: What is one thing you learned in this semester* that you found interesting or surprising? (*required Ecology and Evolution course for Bio majors) "That I actually liked this course." lol

Our publication on the genomics of the firecracker penstemon is out. This was the result of a two-semester graduate class that I co-taught with David Jarvis. We wanted to sequence something meaningful to the western US, so we chose a penstemon species. doi.org/10.1093/jher...

Whole-genome assembly and annotation of the firecracker penstemon (Penstemon eatonii)
Abstract. The penstemons are ornamental annual flowering plants native to the Intermountain West and Rocky Mountains and commonly used for urban landscapin
