Congratulations to our Master student Nic Schröder for the successful defense of his thesis!

Paper from one of our new lab member is out - congrats @robertpeuss

Beneath the #COVID19 headline, this is a story about how hard it is to disrupt dogma in science - in this case, misassumptions about how #vaccines & #immune memory are supposed to work. 1/2 quantamagazine.org/trained-immuni…

Eine Infektion mit dem Bandwurm Schistocephalus solidus führt bei Dreistachligen Stichlingen zu einer geringeren Fluchtbereitschaft bei drohender Gefahr. Eine aktuelle Studie zeigt, dass das auch Konsequenzen für gesunde Artgenossen haben kann. ethologisch.de/infizierte-sti…

Very proud that our group member Barbara Milutinovic got the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions fellowship at Rudjer Boskovic Institute in Zagreb to study evolution of group disease defences Congratulations Barbara @BarbaraMilutin1

We are extremely happy & proud to announce that, after evaluation by the #DFG, our SFB will continue for 4 more years! Congrats 👏 to all members and contributors! Stay tuned for more research on individualized niches!

**Funded PhD and PostDoc offer** NC3 We offer exciting projects to study the ecological and evolutionary consequences of host-parasite interactions from the individual to the ecosystem level. See uni-muenster.de/Evolution/anim…

First time hosting a seminar speaker. Might seem small to some but feels like a milestone to me 😁 My amazing mentor @NatalieSteinel gave a fascinating talk on host-parasite interactions and the immune system Clark University . #phdlife
