S1E6: Population genetics, authorship lists, work/life balance and raining cockroaches with Jeffrey Ross-Ibarra
In this episode, we discuss a relatively recent paper from Jeff\u2019s lab that illustrates the pros and cons of planning authorship lists in advance. We have an honest discussion about publishing in \u201chigh impact\u201d journals (please note the ironic air quotes) as a pre-tenure professor and how his lab members made deliberate trade-offs in work-life balance to get experiments done quickly. Today\u2019s paper is Hufford et al. \u201cComparative population genomics of maize domestication and improvement\u201d, published in Nature Genetics in 2012.\n\nRead more about this episode on Plantae at: https://plantae.org/blog/taproot-podcast-s1e6-population-genetics-authorship-lists-worklife-balance-and-raining-cockroaches-with-jeffrey-ross-ibarra/\n\nShow Notes:\nHufford et al. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22660546\nGithub site with successful faculty and grant applications-- https://github.com/RILAB/statements\nThe Maize Diversity Project https://www.panzea.org\n\nTwitter handles\n@jrossibarra (it\u2019s the cool cow with sunglasses)\n@ehaswell\n@baxterTWI
