Some time ago I gave a talk on co-evolution of life-history traits with #lifespan #plasticity and #variable_environments taking main roles. Now you can see it here if you want.

Interested in why do organisms age? Come study ageing with us – we are looking for a postdoc bit.ly/2WwRNYj and a technician bit.ly/2WzR88g. Our approach is to link mechanisms with evolutionary causes. Within ERC project but there is a lot of flexibility 1/2

Ever wonder what transgenerational epigenetic inheritance (TEI) is good for? (Yes, what’s the #PhysiologicalRelevance?) We showed earlier that worms can learn to avoid pathogens, and use TEI to pass on this memory for a few generations. In our new paper....nature.com/articles/s4158…

Congratulations to Irja Ratikainen who has been appointed member of the Young Academy of Norway Akademiet for yngre forskere

Out OA now - @kalchhauser of @fiwibern together with Sonia Sultan, Lisa Shama, Helen Spence-Jones, Stefano Tiso, Claudia Valsecchi & Franz Weissing discuss 3 features of 'non-genetic' inheritance systems from molecular & evolutionary biology perspectives bit.ly/3jDskpu

Swedish Ecological Society virtual meeting. Great lineup of plenary speakers! Abstract submission by Jan 29! nordicsocietyoikos.glueup.com/event/oikos-me…

Our new paper out! Very excited about this one! See Alexei Maklakov 's thread explaining it below. In collaboration with the superb Hanne Carlsson, Elizabeth Duxbury and @EdIvimeyCook !

We are looking for a PhD student to work with Joost Raeymaekers and myself at Nord universitet! Topic: Temperature #adaptation #genomics in marine snails. 🐌🌡️🧬🌊Please apply / share! jobbnorge.no/en/available-j…

I am hiring! Looking for a PhD student to work with me on my ERC StG project "Dissecting the paradox of stasis in evolutionary biology". Tempo and mode of anagenetic (within-lineage) evolution and much more. DM me for more info. cutt.ly/ivUUmba

New paper led by @EdIvimeyCook: Transgenerational fitness effects of dietary restriction via intermittent fasting in C. elegans – several interesting results: bit.ly/33CAkkc DR extends lifespan but what about future generations? Adaptive effects? 1/5

Hi Ecologists! There's a human now running this account, so expect some more content besides job ads. Looking forward being part of the ecology twitterverse! DMs are open so welcome to suggestions and ideas

New paper: Should females prefer old males? Great collaboration with Carolina Segami and QvarnströmLab where we used 18 years long-term monitoring data in combination with paternity status in collared flycatchers

Happy to see this out! Old mothers can have more fit offspring, an effect cumulatively increasing over generations, likely because of better provisioning with age. Great work led by Laura Travers, originally a MSc thesis by Hanne Carlsson, supervised by Alexei Maklakov and myself

I'm recruiting a 2-year postdoc to work on toxic effects of air pollution. Ideal candidate has a strong background in transcriptomics. Deadline for application is 21st of January. For more details please contact me directly ([email protected]).

New preprint with Alexei Maklakov and collegues where we suggest that germline maintenance is more costly in males. Experimental study using the nematode C. remanei. Animal Ecology Uppsala Högskolan i Halmstad
