#Speciation in miniature. #RiceEEB PhD student @maryamrfaghihi.bsky.social and a team of amazing #RiceUniversity undergrads are raising thousands of galls to collect 1mm wasp inquilines to test for reproductive isolation associated with host use (ecology) and geography.

Lotta people ask me for tips on how to talk about complicated ideas to the Public. First, there’s no such thing as the Public. Second, just talk the way you would at drinks at the conference. Peers you like and respect who are in different fields but so what. And they’re hot.
