I'm used to working on relatively small datasets, so it's refreshing to work on a big one for a change!

For example, this #network shows all systematic associations among variables, as estimated with my model.

With such a big sample size, the problem is not whether an association will be detected but, rather, if the association is strong enough to matter. As you can see, there are only a few thick edges floating within a soup of much thinner ones. :) #ecoinformatics

#introduction I am a quantitative #biologist, striving to understand how changes in #temperature (and other factors) influence biological systems over various timescales. To this end, I employ a diverse set of approaches, such as #phylogenetic comparative methods, #ecoinformatics, #machinelearning, & comparative #genomics.

My research to date has primarily focused on the #physiological and #molecular levels, but I am planning to soon expand to higher levels (species interactions, #ecosystems).
