feels wild to re-introduce myself after so many years on “science twitter” but i am liking the fresh start!
hey y’all, i’m andy (he/they). i study evolution in the rapidly changing ocean. i like going outside to touch rocks and look at bugs.

US faculty, your immigrant colleagues are lonely and scared right now. And they can no longer share how they feel on social media without fear of harming their immigration status. Check in on them.

In this new study that emerged from a great collaboration led by @morganefrapin.bsky.social and Ehsan Pashay Ahi, we dig into the molecular mechanisms of density-dependent effects in Atlantic salmon, specifically in their hypothalamus (a key site for endocrine regulation).

It's important to write hand-written letters to your friends when you need to send them something. Ideally while doing a bit. Maybe you're a union soldier, separated from your ladylove. Maybe a hot air balloon operator.
We mustn't let the realities of today restrain the nonsense within us.
