Testing the survival of different isopod species with red wood ants #isopod #ants #ecology

Early morning birding at the Belgian coast

During the research I gained a lot of new skills and knowledge while having fun, thank you for the opportunity Nick Wybouw TEREC

Happy to announce that our paper on a rare intersex phenotype in a natural isopod population is published. Nick Wybouw @tjparmentier Read more doi.org/10.3897/zookey…

Proud to see my master's dissertation paper published "Dissecting the costs of a facultative symbiosis in an isopod living with ants". doi.org/10.1007/s00442… A big thank you to my supervisor @tjparmentier and everyone TEREC for lending a helping hand when needed.

Ending the HNB Conference 2022 at Wytham woods. Big thanks to the organisation for this very interesting and fun conference #HNB2022 #Oxford

The HYBRIPEST project is hiring two PhD students! These focus on resolving the mechanisms that underlie host - #Wolbachia interactions and hybrid defects; nickywybouw.org/images/PhD1-ON… and nickywybouw.org/images/PhD2-ON… Happy to answer questions about the positions, work and group! Please RT.

First waxbill energetics paper out today🔥. Huge work led by @CesarePacioni and Marina Sentís! TEREC FWO

Out now Heredity - our study of the underlying mechanisms and relevance of Wolbachia-induced sex allocation distortion (Sd) in haplodiploids! Sd is an often neglected symbiont-mediated reproductive phenotype in haplodiploids and is expressed when females are infected.

So happy to have received this award! Many thanks to #EOU2023 for the great conference. Looking forward to the next one!

Had an amazing time at the #EOU2023 conference. Many thanks to the organisers and participants! See you next time 👋

What is this pathetic sudden attack on wolves ? And pretending it is a danger to human, where do you get your science from, Ursula von der Leyen ?

Nearly 1,000 migratory birds died at ONE building just this morning in Chicago. Imagine across the whole city. Please please please consider turning lights off in your home and offices over night as our feathered friends make their journey south! 📸 Daryl Coldren

Out now CR in Parasitology & Vector-Borne Diseases our methodological study "Xenodiagnosis in the wild: A methodology to investigate infectiousness for tick-borne bacteria in a songbird reservoir" doi.org/10.1016/j.crpv…
