"who needs to learn"

Anyone who wants to be able to validate the code.

I’m putting together a Zoom workshop for graduate students and researchers who want to keep track of the impact of their research. Is this something that you’d be interested for your students? It can be 40-60 min long. 🌎

Does body size predict abundance the same way in all environments, as predicted by the Metabolic theory of Ecology? Our new study challenges this assumption. Read it here: 📄 doi.org/10.1111/ele....

There’s a Stairway to Heaven, but a Highway to Hell. This implies Heaven is a walkable community, and Hell is a congested interstate.

Two of the most common climate misconceptions I see, even among knowledgeable folks, are that (1) most people aren't worried about climate change, and (2) if they were, they'd act.

Biology is much more complicated than most non-biologists can imagine. And AI is not going to change this anytime soon.

I have four (!) papers that have been in review so long that my mind, energy, and entire lab has moved on yet they still linger waiting for the minor-ist of edits to make their way through the never ending gauntlet of reviewer/AE/editor back and forth checkboxing. Good lord this system is broken.

The other thing I want to do today is upload my contributions for TidyTuesday’s datasets. I have the links ready just need to figure out how to make the contribution.

I´ve been putting off working on my website and fixing a few issues but today is the day. I did it in Quarto and cannot even begin to tell you how easy it is to fix things and change things around. One of the things I want to start working on is my Data Viz Portfolio.

I hate it when this happens 🤣 I was peacefully enjoying my bagel with strawberry jam and of course it was a messy afair an dall of a sudden bam! a student: “Hi Gabby, sorry to interrupt you but could you help me with this…”. Half my lower jaw covered in jam 🤣

One of the best things I learned in therapy is that there is nothing wrong with me or my personality. I just have certain attitudes and behaviors that I can change if I want to. Thought patterns too. This took me years to internalize but once I did I found peace.

Breaking News: Jane Goodall, one of the world’s most revered conservationists, died at 91. Her discoveries in the 1960s about how chimpanzees behaved in the wild broke new ground and represented what was called “one of the Western world’s great scientific achievements.” nyti.ms/42kpGxt

ME ON A TRAIN: Oh no, I accidentally clicked a video with sound! Oh god, people heard a second of loud sound from my phone. I have torn the social contract.

EVERYBODY ELSE ON TRAIN: Shit yeah, train time, time to watch the loudest TikToks

Thanks @cghlewis.bsky.social for the #rstats tip !! The rainbow indentation looks sooooo cool 🤩

Wait what??? That is so pretty!!!!! 🤩

For all my ecologists out there. If I tell you that I am working on a research project that is about niche segregation, what do you expect to see in that research project? 🌎🧪 #ecology
