It's been over a month now, but... I defended my dissertation! Big thanks to my advisor @joethorntonlab.bsky.social for all the mentorship over the years, and to my family for coming out to support me ❤️

I'm also super excited to announce that I'll be starting a postdoc with Joe Parker at Caltech this fall, where I'll be studying the mechanisms of convergent defense gland evolution in rove beetles. 🪲 Can't wait to get my hands dirty with some single cell sequencing

Ok, life update over. Final shout-out to my lab mate Romi @sensitiveroots.bsky.social for crocheting me this sick hat 🧶🧬

Thanks also to my lab mate Santi for 7 years (and counting) of friendship and collaboration. Look out for our paper on how genotype-phenotype maps shape the evolution of protein phenotypes, coming soon!

Hi! I'm Romi. I've finally decided to make my profile here. I love plants, yeast, evolution, ASR ... currently obsessing over the evolutionary origins of the nuclear auxin response.
