Interested in how urbanization influences host-parasite interaction and parasite diversity ? Check out our new paper on avian malaria, now in PCI Ecology !
Proud to be part of the transition to a more ethical publishing process. Thank you Peer Community In doi.org/10.24072/pci.e…

Check out our new paper in Molecular Ecology 'Does urbanisation lead to parallel demographic shifts across the world in a cosmopolitan plant?'
Thanks to all the GLUE collaborators we were able to investigate #urban #evolution at a global scale. doi.org/10.1111/mec.17…

How hard is it to do science in a language that’s not your first language? We quantified the severity of #languagebarriers for non-native English speakers when reading/publishing papers and attending/presenting at international conferences.

Urban observation of the day: daddy bird taking care of its babies, cozy in a famous coffee shop sign! just in front of #evolution2023 in #Albuquerque and despite the 36c degrees 🥵 ! Urban evolutionary biology rocks! Life In The City: Urban Evolution

1/Aujourd’hui, nous avons des révélations majeures à vous faire. 🚨

Pendant des mois, l’équipe scientifique de @BLOOM_fr a analysé des données qui n’avaient jamais été regardées de près, et ce qu’on a trouvé nous a sidérés.

Voici la face cachée de l’industrie du thon.

Before a PhD: I don’t know.

After a PhD: That is outside the scope of my current knowledge.

‘Le problème des écologistes c’est que leur monde ne fait pas rêver..’

Parce qu’un monde avec sécheresses, inondations, mégafeux, disparition de la biodiversité, les glaciers qui fondent, des chaleurs insoutenables où il n’est plus possible de vivre, ça fait rêver ?

Urban fieldwork today ! Collecting clover samples for #globalurbanevolution #glue2 .0 project. Working with two wonderful women young scientists 👩‍🔬 #WomenInSTEM Sophie Breitbart @[email protected] and Isabella Vessio

Are behaviour and stress-related phenotypes in urban birds adaptive? doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…

New research shows great tits in urban areas to be more aggressive, more exploratory & have higher breath rate than their rural counterparts. But are these adaptations to urbanisation?

Join the RCN urban eco-evo network tomorrow for their seminar and workshop series! This month Aude Caizergues will talk about her work on evolution and epigenetics in urban great tits! Marina Alberti Dr. Elizabeth Carlen @ruth_rivkin (zoom link via dm available)

1st paper of the #GlobalUrbanEvolution project came out today in Science Magazine. How fitting to have clover on the cover for St. Paddy's Day 🍀☘️🍀☘️! We show that urbanization leads to similar enviro changes and repeated adaptation across the world science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… 1/8

It’s that time of year again 😊

When people say 'I can't change,' what they often mean is 'I don't want to change.'

The greatest barrier to adjusting behavior isn't a lack of skill. It's a lack of will.

Motivation fuels capacity. Before you teach people how to alter their habits, they need to find the why.

Thrilled to see our study now out in Current Biology

Plus, my new resolution for 2021 : draw a comic strip for each of my papers. What do you think ?
