Hello new biology followers!
I teach biology at a PUI and sometimes write papers that use genetics to understand topics in both conservation- and evolutionary-biology.
Most often with fish!

This Rachel Carson documentary on PBS's American Experience is pretty amazing. I've long been a fan, but I learned a lot more about her career, writing, and the societal context.

For those interested I've started putting together this starter pack for the field of environment & climate law, broadly construed. It's a field in which I'd love to be able to get more involved.

Ppl who have been teaching in higher ed longer than me: have grade complaints always been a thing? When i was an undergrad in Brazil in the 00s complaining to a prof about a grade was absolutely unthinkable. The volume and unabashedness of complaints we get these days is mind boggling to me.

How are people dealing with AI use in their grad programs, specifically for thesis proposal, qualifying exam, dissertation? Banned completely? Allowed, but have to recognize its use? No guardrails at all? We have to develop a policy and I’m totally at a loss.
