Happy to share our new research article in People and Nature with Orou Gaoue! We explain how indigenous people select medicinal plants in West-Africa and suggest new methodological guidance in testing the theory of non- random medicinal plants selection. besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pa…

Enjoyed Jacob Moutouama #ESA2023 talk: plant populations at center of the distribution range are more resilient to perturbation than populations closer to the periphery of the range. Shoutout to UTK EEB family!

Join our group as a postdoctoral researcher investigating the macroecology of plant-fungal interactions across scales UTK EEB on a U.S. National Science Foundation funded macrosystems grant with S. Fei Rich Phillips John Parker Joe Edwards and many more.

New work by Jacob Moutouama & Orou Gaoue Effects of range and niche position on population dynamics of a tropical plant esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

How do mutualists influence species' range limits?

For the first research out of my PhD, we reviewed studies addressing this question. Even though many focus on abiotic and negative biotic interactions as drivers of range limits, mutualists leave an underappreciated footprint.

Congrats to Jacob Moutouama for an excellent exit seminar to UTK EEB on the ecological drivers of range limitation in species. His work directly contributed to address the tropical bias in ecology that we always talk about. My lab was lucky to have such a brilliant student for 4 yrs

We are recruiting PhD students for our two new collaborative NSF-funded projects studying eco-evolutionary responses to climate change. More info at these links. Please RT! seemasheth.weebly.com/grad_student_o…

The Gilchrist lab in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EEB) at the University of Tennessee Knoxville (UTK) is recruiting M.S. and Ph.D. level graduate students interested in studying functional molecular evolution and genomics. 1/n

Our U.S. National Science Foundation integrative biology project with Nick Smith, Susan Kalisz, and Lalasia Bialic-Murphy is hiring a postdoc and graduate student. Investigating how allelopathic invaders disrupt mycorrhizal mutualisms, scaling from molecules to ecosystems. See me at #ESA2022 if you want to chat!

**GRAD STUDENT & POSTDOC OPPORTUNITIES** Funding for 1-2 grad students (MSc or PhD) and 1 postdoc to join the lab at UBC in 2023. We study how evolution & ecology interact to change population dynamics & species interactions in space & time. williamslabubc.weebly.com/join-us.html (1/4)
