I'm an evolutionary biologist by training (quantitative genetics of prairie plants) but after a science policy postdoc now work in science policy/funding for computer networking and research infrastructure. I didn't really use Twitter professionally, but putting that out there. #genetics #evolution #plants #botany #computing #networking #scipol #scipolicy (part 1 of 2 for intro).
