Always happy to host anyone who might be interested in freshwater ecology and networks (and hopefully their combination!)

We're currently seeking postdocs (3 years) to work on biodiversity change under environmental variability. Please let your colleagues know about it! riken.jp/en/careers/res…

A fantastic week in sunny Seville SETAC Europe Conference. Great to have the opportunity to present my PhD project, catch up with the ECORISC CDT gang and learn a lot from the 100s of talks/posters! Thanks to @CardiffDA for supporting my attendance.

What's going on in our agricultural fields when we stop looking? 🤔🌾❓ A lot of biocontrol that current monitoring and research is overlooking! 🫨 Read about our review and proposal for year-round monitoring of biocontrol below! 🧵 doi.org/10.1111/afe.12…

Brilliant news! Europe will adopt the #naturerestorationlaw following this morning's vote in the European Council. Read our primer on what the law could mean for freshwater restoration: freshwaterblog.net/2024/03/19/can…

Behavioural ecology isn't just for animals! Come and research how #fungi behave in this fully-funded #PhD Cardiff University School of Biosciences. Supervisory dream team of Veronica Grieneisen Fredric Windsor FungusProf and me! Please RT! findaphd.com/phds/project/t…

Networks galore in this project, including some interesting ideas around dynamic responses to change and spatial network structure! British Ecological Society Network Science Society

🎉New paper in SICB from a collaboration with Evolutionary Biomechanics Laboratory and Fredric Windsor! 🎉 Understanding trophic interactions in a warming world by bridging foraging ecology and biomechanics with network science Check out the paper and the thread below! 🧵📜 doi.org/10.1093/icb/ic…

Super excited to see this out and to start applying nutritional networks to different systems and topics! 🥳🕸️🍽️ It was great working with @DarrenMarkEvans Ian Vaughan Shawn Wilder Max Tercel Fredric Windsor on this. Thanks for a really constructive process Journal of Animal Ecology!

Folks interested in working with me as postdoc should reach out! The NSF postdoc now supports a call on "Understanding and Solutions for a Resilient Planet" with a focus on large data (e.g., NEON) and fun modeling work. Submission deadline: Nov 7 nsf.gov/pubs/2024/nsf2…

Register by Monday to present at the Royal Entomological Society Sustainable Agriculture SIG meeting in Sciences at Newcastle this November! Alongside talks and posters, we are also accepting presentations of cool technology used for monitoring or managing insects. It's set to be another great event! 🪲

🚨PHD OPPORTUNITY!🚨 Join us in Newcastle University to assess carabid beetle ecosystem services and foraging ecology, and develop new methods for inferring interactions between beetles and their food! 🪲🍽️💻 iapetus2.ac.uk/studentships/a…

🚨 !!PhD opportunity!! 🚨 Ponds are often overlooked, but are super important. We need to better understand their contribution to freshwater biodiversity and how to support them! Come work with a great team Daniel Read @lynseyrharper Jordan Cuff 🕸️🧬🕷️ nercgw4plus.ac.uk/projects-2024-…
