Besides teaching Intro to Evolution for the first time, I will have a few other things on my plate for this fall. The first one that’s actually been scheduled is a talk at City College of San Francisco. The CCSF Department of Biology has a long-running seminar series that is open to the public (note the fall schedule is not yet posted). The talk will be November 16, and I’ll be talking about wild turkeys instead of sage-grouse for a change. Appropriate for the week before Thanksgiving I guess!

I am hoping to arrange a local Audubon Society talk as well- I’ll post more about that as soon as I have any details. And my former colleagues at Berkeley (Sam Diaz-Muñoz, Emily DuVal, and Eileen Lacey) are threatening to write a review paper, and in the Patricelli Lab we will continue to forward on a number of sage-grouse projects. It should be enough to keep me busy!
