Just over two weeks left to apply! I may be biased, but it’s hard to imagine a better place to do plant evolutionary biology.

I have recently noticed a string of vandalism on our floor. These outrageous acts seem to be correlated with visits from a certain corn geneticist @jrossibarra.bsky.social

Happy to see this out! Led by Nicole Adams, we ask if morphological shifts in birds driven by climate change are accompanied by genetic shifts - evidence for adaptation? Yes for bill size: "large bill" alleles decrease over time! Not so much for body size. bmcbiol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

My lab is great. For grad student Shreya's QE seminar on limpet climate change response they built her opening slide out of cookies. Then individual "move", "adapt" or "die" limpet cookies.

SO excited to announce our lab's paper, led by @katherinelauck, is out in @ScienceMagazine today!   With >150k nesting records from @CornellBirds' Nestwatch project, we find extreme heat dramatically reduces nest success on farms but not in forests (1/n).   www.science.org/doi/epdf/10....

Today voting opened for my tenure file. Also today - a pipe burst in my cold room, water ran down the hall and into the elevator shaft disabling both building elevators... I hope they keep me around 😬
