Just ran into a blast from the past - Nijhout lab Duke Biology ca 2000 where I got my PhD; for comparison: our current team IU Biology ~2 months ago when we finally got our act together for new lab shots. Wow!

This is such a great idea! Kirstin Milks (KEER-stin, she/they) National Center for Science Education

No poster is left behind. City bike taxi transfer for two posters that were missing. #EED2024 Hope to see you all at today’s poster session starting at 6PM!

IU Biology is leading research on how organisms respond to environmental conditions, focusing on dung beetles. This collaborative study features Prof. Armin Moczek, Ph.D. candidate Josh Jones, and UCSD’s Patrick Rohner. Read more: go.iu.edu/8pYf The College at IU

After two packed days and vibrant poster sessions, it's already the last day! Get ready for three more parallel sessions, the business meeting, prizes, and a plenary session. And don't miss Gala Dinner & free conference party at Pikku Finlandia tonight! #ConferenceFinale #EED2024

Fantastic talk by Patrick Rohner on the pervasiveness, mechanisms underlying, and consequences of developmental bias Euro Evo Devo 2024 Can’t wait to see where his lab will take this work next!

Moczek-lab members and various hangers on went on a rather unusual field trip this weekend!

Dung beetle central has the coolest field trips!

Fantastic workshop integrating island biogeography, climate science, conservation advocacy & cutting edge teaching to empower pedagogy with 24 fantastic teachers and the one and only kimberly milks! A Saturday very well spent! IU Environmental Resilience Institute IU Biology The College at IU U.S. National Science Foundation National Center for Science Education

My new investigation for @newsfromscience: Did a top NIH official manipulate Alzheimer's/Parkinson’s research for decades? Neuroscientist Eliezer Masliah found to engage in scientific misconduct; 132 of his papers fall under suspicion science.org/content/articl…

Thank you Sarah McAdams for this wonderful write-up of our Educating for Environmental Change workshop integrating island biogeography, climate science, conservation advocacy & teaching-to-empower pedagogy Kirstin Milks (KEER-stin, she/they) IU Environmental Resilience Institute National Center for Science Education IU Biology U.S. National Science Foundation biology.indiana.edu/news-events/ne…

Things you likely only ever hear @ dung beetle central: - Whose poop is defrosting on the counter? - After you squeeze it through cheesecloth it needs to feel like play-dough! - Dung is a crappy diet. And then there is this masterpiece.... youtube.com/watch?v=ptt6Lf…

Our latest manuscript, published today in #PLOSGenetics: The Drosophila circadian clock gene cycle controls the development of clock neurons dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…

Our new Current Biology paper provides a rare glimpse into a morphological novelty in Drosophila eugracilis In it, Gavin Rice and colleagues, infer and reproduce the likely initial steps of a novelty's formation sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

We had lab meeting today and I encouraged everyone to dress up for Halloween. Here is what they did! Can you guess the theme? This totally made my day!

Microbes matter to hosts (and vice versa) in oh so many critical ways. But how does a host establish, maintain, or even adjust symbionts as they metamorphose, switch diets & environments?
