With Megan Vahsen and collaborators on Sapelo Island collecting cores. The goal is to resurrect ancient seeds from the cores and see how the plants have evolved over time.

We were at the beach today, too! But surveying plants, not inverts. We did see a crab.

Thanks!!

Happy to get a visit from a past student (class of 2010) who is now working as a physician's assistant in intensive care. The kids are alright!

This is a helpful guide for students new to the publishing game. A step-by-step guide to getting your manuscript across the finish line, from start to finish.

I appreciate how it doesn't assume hidden curriculum and is informed by the author's experience with English not being his first language.

A Pocket Guide to Scientific Writing and Publishing is out🎉

This is the book I wish I’d had 20 years ago — short, practical, and designed to help researchers write & get their papers published

I hope it helps many
Please share with anyone who might benefit!

Pro tip for writers:
Read your text out loud when you're done with your paper. you'll catch lots of errors.

Even better (updated 2025!): Use your computer 🖥️ to read it to you, and you sit and take notes. You'll catch even more🔥
