I am now an associate editor for the new open access journal Ecology and Evolution, published by Wiley. The journal’s goal is to publish sound science without regard to novelty. In that sense, E&E is similar to PLOS ONE, but E&E is much more focused and should be more visible to ecologists and evolutionary biologists.

It’s taken awhile, but my lab is finally looking ship-shape. Here’s the main lab, where we’ll do both molecular and lizard-based work. And here’s the newly renovated Anolis breeding facility, currently devoid of any anoles to breed. You can see that we’ve got our work cut out for us assembling all those shelves and light fixtures.

I have officially joined the faculty of the Department of Biological Sciences at Virginia Tech, and the McGlothlin Lab is open for business science!
