🧵Check out our preprint where we discuss the opportunities - as well as challenges - of AI to improve evidence synthesis in conservation science, with relevance also for the disciplines of ecology and evolution more broadly. 1/2

Just about a week left to submit a talk on reproducibility in ecology & evolution to the symposium that Shinichi Nakagawa | 中川震一 (Shinichi Nakagawa) & I have organized for #Evol2024 Evolution Meetings in Montreal this summer!

Check out my blog for relevant links & more info: blog.phytools.org/2024/03/evolut….

SORTEE hits 2500 followers!

Join them to learn about open, reliable, and transparent science in ecology, evolutionary bio, and related disciplines.

A great opportunity - if I was a bit younger, I would be heading to France and knocking on his door right away. Working with Pierre de Villemereuil has always been fun and fulfilling, and I learned so many things!

I am looking for candidates for 54-months (!) lead research technician position, working on my #ERC project, developing haplotagging methods, managing data and helping with field work. More information here :

Exciting opportunity in Paris!

Please RT!

Regular reminder. This conference will be epic #SORTEE2024

My piece on experimental design and causal inference in ecology & evolution is out in Ecology Letters to day. I'll provide some context on why I think inadequate experimental design in our field is limiting inferences & causing papers to be rejected 🧵onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…
