The @systbiol.bsky.social Mentorship Program is looking for a few more faculty/curators/etc. to help mentor the next generation of systematic biologists. Great way to meet new people and build community, and only takes ~1 hour per month. Link: forms.gle/1daBQbswoFqj... Please share!

UC Berkeley Law creates new AI policy that bans AI for "conceptualizing, outlining, drafting, revising, translating, or editing any work submitted for credit" or exams because "thinking remains the sine qua non of good lawyering (and of a quality legal education)." That's what I'm talking about.

Rule:
The use of AI is prohibited for aid in conceptualizing, outlining, drafting, revising,
translating, or editing any work submitted for credit. AI use is prohibited for any use for
any purpose in any exam situation. Students may not upload course
materials—including assignments, readings, slides, class recordings, or other class
content—into generative AI systems. AI can be used for research on papers ONLY for the
limited purpose of identifying sources, such as cases, statutes, or secondary sources.
Students are responsible for the accuracy of their research and all other aspects of their
submitted work. Citations to sources that do not exist will raise a presumption of
prohibited AI use

Its hard to overstate just how urgent this is, we need to get vaccinating BEFORE we have lots of sad wildlife documentaries of mass deaths in penguin colonies...

If you'd like to celebrate the biology of viruses - or the fight against viral diseases - this winter, try out our free and updated #VirusSnowflake designs. Please share, and if you have any photos of Virus Snowflakes in your area it would be lovely to see them! cvr-engagement.co.uk/virus-snowfl...

Just created my Bluesky! Let's hope I use it more than twitter. Hope you follow me if you want to hear about Bayesian phylogenetics with fossils, state-dependent diversification, and canids!!
