Does the origin of cellular complexity impose higher energetic demands? I explore this idea here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1iWzX,L%7EyC… (50-day free acess)
Very grateful to @LabMears for this fantastic summary of our work identifying a new mitochondrial cristae shaping protein in @CurrentBiology. Be sure to give it a read and check out our paper if you missed it! cell.com/current-biolog…

We are looking for computational biologists to join our department at Purdue!
My department is looking to hire multiple Assistant Professors in computational biology, which includes comp neuroscience. It's a great opportunity to be part of a university-wide initiation in AI. Check it out: careers.purdue.edu/job/Assistant-…
"a society that abhors illiteracy but accepts—and even at times seems to celebrate—innumeracy."
Earlier this year I was lucky to be selected as a UCSB fellow of @TheOpEdProject. Today, with the help of many mentors and cheerleaders, I published a piece on math education in @Newsweek. It feels really good to be doing this kind of writing again. newsweek.com/applied-math-e…
Great study by Kelsey Williamson, @andrewjroger, and others that provides the most well-supported answer to date to the question of the root of the tree of eukaryotes.
Our new study led by brilliant PhD student Kelsey Williamson (along with many wonderful collaborators), resolves the root of the Eukaryote Tree of Life 🌍🧬 with unmatched precision! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A new mitochondrial dynamin pseudoenzyme is part of the MICOS complex in fungi. Great work led by @Abhishek_Mito and @LabFriedman!
Very excited to share that our work identifying a new factor that works with MICOS to establish mitochondrial cristae architecture is now out @CurrentBiology! cell.com/current-biolog…
