Our new paper that details impediments to international collaborative research in evolutionary ecology and then introduces a website that we developed with toolkits to address each one. Please check it out (it is open-access). DOI: 10.1002/ece3.11633

How I published zero first-author papers during 2023: - All the data were already collected - 5 papers could have come from all that data - I read mostly manuscripts I am reviewing and student assignments - I write mostly emails

Would love to talk to anyone interested in applying that is interested in urban ecology / evolution projects! My lab will be relocating to Philadelphia next month, and will have postdoc funding if a Smith application doesn't work out
