My first textbook is officially available for pre-order today. Grab a copy if you're interested in developing a (statistical) research-oriented mindset. The book is designed as a stepping stone from statistical coursework to novel statistical research. routledge.com/Exercises-in-S…

I-trustworthy Models. A framework for trustworthiness evaluation of probabilistic classifiers ift.tt/Jlbn9Yu

New paper led by star PhD student @mrschwob (who is currently on the statistics job market) building a bayesian hierarchical model to understand gene flow across space and time in ancient DNA datasets. academic.oup.com/biometrics/art…

Just gave my first JSM talk - and I promise there was more than one person in attendance #JSM2022

Our wolf paper is out! nature.com/articles/s4158… Analysing 72 ancient 🐺 genomes from the last 100,000 years, we: #1 chart wolf natural history through the Ice Age, #2 directly detect natural selection, #3 reveal that dogs have dual ancestry. A 🧵 (11), illustrations by @jessrpeto

Over the last two weeks, I had the opportunity to help with the NSF Bayesian Short Course, hosted at CSU. It has been a pleasure meeting such wonderful and curious ecologists, agronomists, and environmental scientists. Based on the smiles below, I think it went well!

Several years ago, my dad decided to quit his job and return to college. Today, he received his PhD in Mechanical Engineering at 54 years old! Very proud of him 🎓🎉🎉

🚨 Publication alert 🚨 Theorems and Algorithms Relating to the Collatz Conjecture An undergrad side-project that I did is now published. It's a deviation from my statistical work, but if you're into number theory, feel free to check it out below! hindawi.com/journals/ijmms…
