The WinkleWatch project is only looking at the species rough periwinkles. There are many species of sea snails found on our shores and unfortunately they all look quite similar... But don’t worry! We have some handy tricks to help you find what we’re looking for. #WinkleWatch

Save the date! We are pleased to announce that OIKOS Norway 2025, the national conference of the Norwegian Ecological Society (NØF), will be held on 9-12 April 2025 at Nord University in Bodø. Info and call for workshops below. Looking forward to meet everyone in Bodø!

Our community science project "WinkleWatch" is still running - join if you are near a beach and like snails and colours! 🐚⚫️🌓🟡🟠🔴🟤🟣⚪️🐚 #CitizenScience #Evolution #Colour sheffield.ac.uk/biosciences/ne…

Today's FBA's lunch seminar about the genomic puzzles of the Atlantic cod continuum and cryptic ecotypes <°))))><... Thanks for the talk and visit, Sissel Jentoft! Nord universitet

Snails 🐚 are slow, but they can evolve fast! Our new paper shows how one ecotype evolved into another on a tiny island 🏝️ within 30 years - and that we could predict changes at the phenotypic, but also at the genetic 🧬 level. 1/3 #Evolution #Genomics science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

1ª sampling season of Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions FAIRYSCAPE completed! We collected fairy shrimps in Norway to study climate change effects on their adaptation. Huge thanks to Joost Raeymaekers Deepti Patel @jpverta Deo Macahig Irina Smolina,Ruth Turunen,Éric Jordà,Martin Pettersen,Alberto Sánchez

“Species don’t usually go extinct at once, they go extinct one population at a time” another reason to focus on not losing populations and their genetic diversity. “and also species can be protected one population at a time, so local work is vital.” AliciaMstt The Coalition for Conservation Genetics

Thrilled to be back at the Centre de Recherche en Hydrobiologie at Lake Tanganyika (Uvira, DR Congo)! We will launch the fieldwork for project #chipolata - Climate change and harvesting impacts on the pelagic fish community of Lake Tanganyika Norges forskningsråd Nord universitet

Today, at age 75, my Congolese collaborator Mulimbwa N’Sibula successfully defended his PhD thesis at the University of Kisangani. Congratulations Dr. Mulimbwa with this fantastic achievement, and thanks for serving as such a great example of perseverance! site.nord.no/landscapegenom…

I am looking for a Postdoc (2 years, start Spring 2025) with strong bioinfo. skills to work on herring adaptation to climate change at Naturhist.riksmuseet The project will use modern + aDNA, climate data, SDM and genomic simulations. Ad will come soon!

The deadline for abstract submission for Oikos Norway 2025 is extended until Monday 16 December! Submit your abstract here: nordicsocietyoikos.glueup.com/event/120232/r… Nordic Society Oikos Nord universitet

Our new article📢 Advances and shortfalls in knowledge of Antarctic biodiversity | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Because science isn’t just about knowing things. It’s about knowing what we don’t know and then enthusiastically poking it with a stick🇦🇶 By Luis R. Pertierra & co

Congratulations Arun Gowda with your fantastic PhD thesis on genetic and non-genetic adaptation in stickleback fishes! Many thanks to Elena Sarropoulou and Morten T Limborg for the splendid opposition. #fish #adaptation #genomics #stickleback
