Gemiddelde dag op Twitter tegenwoordig.

Van 19 t/m 21 aug. Organiseren we weer onze jaarlijkse (gratis) urbane expeditie in Amsterdam, ditmaal naar het Amstelpark. Er zijn op 19 en 20 aug. nog een paar plekje vrij. Belangstelling? Neem contact op!

We have a bunch of paid work coming up doing species identification work. If you can ID bats, birds or frogs from audio, plants from images, or mammals from camera traps - apply using your form and we will be in touch! 🐦🦇🐸🌿 researchgate.net/job/1013726_Ec…

World Congress of Herpetology is coming up soon! Excited to listen to talks on #coloration as adaptation to changing environments from Kyle Summers, Rasmus Nielsen, Dr. Hayley Layne Crowell 🐍🦎☀️, Jonathan Goldenberg, Udita Bansal, Liliana d’Alba, and Doris Preininger on Wed. 7! Come and join us for a colorful symposium!

Mijn column van 20 juli 2024. Over hoe armoede een keuze is.

You may already have seen a preprint, but now our paper (doi.org/10.24072/pcjou…) Peer Community In on a Bronze Age right whale bone tool is finally published!

Our most elegant expedition is filling up rapidly. Sign up for a unique mix of Italian conviviality, limitless wine and rural cuisine, and biodiversity discoveries in this mosaic landscape of nature and culture! And did we mention that we work from a restored Medieval castle?

Congrats @Jenn_dRose getting your MSc work on the genomics of Bermuda bees published! 🎉 resjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ic… Jenn designed the project, got samples, and learned genomics! #ProudSupervisor Also, check out the coverage in The Bermudian! 🇧🇲 tinyurl.com/4azvztdm #Bermuda

🧵I am teaching a course in #coral #reefs 🪸 and happy to see how students apply their knowledge in our journal clubs, where we discuss relevant scientific papers🤓. Starting a weekly thread of some my fave phrases from their assignments✍️:

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…

Call for applications! The Godfrey Hewitt mobility award supports fieldwork or lab visits of young researchers in evolutionary biology. Details and application procedure at ow.ly/Mb1g50TIL1q

🚨Please RT!!! I’m currently on the search for my next position. I’m looking for something herpetology/ecology research related and/or has a community engagement around conservation component. Please send any leads my way!

Don't miss Roberto Biello presenting our study🧐 on conservation gaps and tends in seahorses 🌊🐴🐠 led by Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn 🧜‍♀️ at the free, online BioDiversity Genomics 2024 Conference on Thu Oct 31st in the topical session Marine vertebrate genomics biodiversitygenomicsconference.org

#3Domics was at the #Tecan User Meeting at the Tecan HQ in Männedorf last week. isac, Amalia Bogri, and Jonas Lauritsen presented our work with the Tecan DreamPrep® NGS. A great opportunity to get and share insights with the community!

That's Not a Hybrid: How to Distinguish Patterns of Admixture and Isolation By Distance | Molecular Ecology Resources onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/17… Very important paper! Indeed, I have also noticed that Structure/Admixture plots are often overinterpreted as introgression.

Early announcement of another speciation webinar by Speciation_network on 12 November. More details, including the Zoom link will soon appear here: speciation-network.pages.ist.ac.at/seminar-series/
