It's out. Immune activation may erode signals of local adaptation in thermal limits along a cline. Exciting work led by @toby_hector. Some populations may get a boost, others suffer more. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

How does pollution impact reproduction? Review paper led by School of Biological Sciences, Monash PhD student Lucinda Aulsebrook available here: doi.org/10.1530/REP-20… With Michael Bertram Jake M Martin @AnneAulsebrook Tomas Brodin Jon Evans Matt Hall @OBryanMoira Andrew Pask & Charles Tyler. #BobWongLab

I'm very pleased to say our new paper was published today with The Royal Society Proceedings B! Key finding: Maintaining #immune function does not appear costly for overall #fitness in a wild #bird population. doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2…

New paper out from the lab! Sex, infection, and thermal limits. Females when uninfected are resistant to heat stress than males, but infection negates any advantage that females are afforded. With Tess Laidlaw, @toby_hector and Carla Sgrò. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Interested in infectious disease, global change, and sex-specific adaptation? We will soon be advertising for a full-time Post-doc and Research Assistant position in the group. Please forward to those you think might be eligible and interested. Any questions – DM or email.

The advert for a full-time research assistant for Australian or New Zealand residents (Honours or Masters degree) is now live. Please forward to those you think might be eligible and interested. Details here. careers.pageuppeople.com/513/cw/en/job/…

We are looking for a post-doc with interests in the evolutionary ecology of host-parasite interactions. Work across projects linking sex-specific adaptation, global change biology, or invasion biology. See lab.mattdhall.com/publications and job details here careers.pageuppeople.com/513/cw/en/job/…

Less than a week to go for the 2 year post-doc. Come work with us on host-pathogen interactions and Daphnia. Aus/NZ applicants particularly encouraged.

#job posting is live! Join this bunch of friendly weirdos as our #lab #manager, flex your #data, #fish, stuff and people organising skills! Scope to make this #research heavy, addressing #disease #ecology #evolution questions! DM/email us, and pls RT!! cfopitt.taleo.net/careersection/…

Please RT: Up to four highly attractive lectureships with generous startup packages offered at the Science Faculty at Lund University! Please spread the word to all talented young biologists. We want at least one or all to go to @Biology_LU lu.varbi.com/en/what:job/jo…

New paper from the lab, led by Stephen Gipson, on how host sex shapes the flow of energy from the environment, through hosts, to their pathogens. Bio-energetic changes in males were much less sensitive to variation in food availability. journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/71…

The next competitive PhD scholarship round for international students at Monash is open. Interested in what we do in the lab (evolution, ecology, host-parasite) then DM away. MSc or Honours + research thesis needed. Deadline in late August.

Congrats Lucinda Aulsebrook (cosupervised with Matt Hall) who submitted her PhD thesis today 🎉🍾🥳. Lucinda studied the impacts of pollution on life history traits in interaction with other environmental stressors (🌡, 🦠) using Daphnia as her model. School of Biological Sciences, Monash #BobWongLab

I was delighted to contribute my research with Matt Hall and Bob Wong (@bbmwong.bsky.social) to the Royal Society Publishing Phil Trans theme issue on 'Infectious disease ecology and evolution in a changing world’. Check it out here: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs… Monash University
