Proud of myself because I especially nailed the bifurcation diagram this year. #figaday 3.235/n #year3 #teachingfigs

Phew, this one is less tricky but always glad to get it right. #figaday 3.249/n #year3 #teachingfigs

Last year I got super into making a board plan for lecture, a tradition that will hopefully serve me well today, too. #figaday 3.236/n #year3 #teachingfigs

So. much. color-coding. #teachingfigs #figaday 3.034/n #year3

Hoping I've not made any gratuitous math errors while teaching from a convention center nook. #figaday 3.078/n #year3 #teachingfigs

It took a whole hour but this may have been my best explanation of the logistic growth equation ever. #figaday 2.085/n #year2 #teachingfigs

[Break in our regularly scheduled data analysis programming to congratulate myself on FINALLY conquering my small-chalkboard-syndrome this quarter by actually pre-planning the board layout. 🌲🐛 #teachingfigs] #figaday 2.257/n #year2

One of my favorite parts of lecture today. Students cobweb on poster-sized Ricker diagrams which lets us build the discrete time logisitic's bifurcation diagrams together. #figaday 3.238/n #year3 #teachingfigs

Each year we ask our first-year grad students to chart out causes of bias in ecological/evolutionary research, and what we can do about them at the individual, group, and institutional level. So proud of this rising generation of scientists! #figaday 3.175/n #year3 #teachingfigs

How it went. Just so much fun teaching a brand new final lecture connecting ecology models to neurons! #figaday 2.307/n #year2 #teachingfigs

Gray points: Self-reported height & weight data from 20,000 Americans. Red points: adult subjects used to generate a 100-year-old calculation of body surface area still used in chemotherapy dosing today. #figaday 2.048/n #year2 #teachingfigs

Very satisfying to pull down a database of terrestrial mammals and see that 2/3 scaling pop out. #figaday 2.044/n #year2 #teachingfigs

Anyway, back to the classroom while we figure out all of our experimental shenanigans. Fun to talk about disease models today, but realizing the board plan didn't finish with... any figures? #figaday 2.262/n #year2 #teachingfigs

When all the derivatives line up and you can link biological intuition, mathematical proofs, and reinforcement simulations in the same hour! Love teaching this class so much. #figaday 2.097/n #year2 #teachingfigs

I hate to say it, but my green chalkboard this quarter has left me hankering for whiteboard days. 🫣 #figaday 2.297/n #year2 #teachingfigs

Re-peat-ing one of my faves. #figaday 2.292/n #year2 #teachingfigs

I spent the weekend down a rabbit hole of pharmacokinetics & limits of data used to generate dosing recommendations. I feel squeamish putting "ideal body weight" on a graph, but hope to generate some impt discussions with students this week. #figaday 2.047/n #year2 #teachingfigs

I know I'm an ecologist because I'm busy downloading & fitting more population data when I should be making scripts for surface area:volume ratios and drug dosing. #figaday 2.046/n #year2 #teachingfigs

I'm a couple weeks ahead of myself in course prep and need to circle back to prep for this week but... building the infrastructure to calculate growth rates of wild populations. Western Snowy Plover data from copr.nrs.ucsb.edu/wp-content/u.... #figaday 2.045/n #year2 #teachingfigs
