Why Cross-Fertilize? The first volume of my OPUS project on sex/asex is now out. Beautifully illustrated by Zoe Dinges. Made freely accessible as pdf, url, and ePub by Adam Mazel at IU Press. Designed especially for educators and graduate students, covering key concepts in evolutionary ecology.
I am halfway through Metamorphosis. It is a fantastic book! Lots of interesting history told in a very engaging way.
Very excited for the arrival of Oren Harman’s latest book.
Few combine deep knowledge of the history of biology with such compelling writing.

Great new postdoc fellowship for foundational plant research.
If you’re into genetics and genomics of plant reproductive evolution or adaptive convergence (incl in the cool and charismatic nightshades!) I’d be happy to talk about possible projects!
