It is with great sadness that I have to resign as eLife - the journal editor and early-career advisor after Michael Eisen was fired as editor-in-chief for making use of his freedom of speech to stand up – once again – for the people who were silenced. A brief statement here:

Hurry up! The deadline to apply for the research position with me Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn to explore the evolution of range shifts in a 🌊🐚 in the fully funded FIASCO project is approaching: February 12th! Details here: raffinifrancescalab.weebly.com/join.html

Excited to share that our paper is now out on Molecular Ecology! We unravel the mystery of endemic versus translocated populations of the endangered Australian lungfish.

🇬🇧 SIBE is back! 😎 Join us all for the 10th SIBE congress in Naples (8-11 September 2024) Plenty of good science, great people and an informal vibe! Looking forward to seeing all of you! Find out more: sibe-iseb.it/napoli2024 #EvolutionaryBiology #SIBE2024

Interested in #climatechange, #biodiversity, #evolution, #genomics, and #conservation? Join us on an exciting journey as a PhD student🎓 at Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn in🧜‍♀️ and collaborate with passionate experts 🌊🐌🐚🧬. Let's work together to make a difference🤝! Details:rb.gy/viglit

‼️Deadlines extended ‼️ If you didn't finish your abstract in time (or you totally forgot 😉) you still have until Friday to submit it. For those just attending #SIBE2024, you have one extra week to register with the early bird fees #EvolutionaryBiology #BiologiaEvoluzionistica

I'm thrilled to announce that the first preprint from the Amphibian Genomics Consortium (AGC) is now available on bioRxiv. This paper was greatly improved by the contributions of the AGC's diverse members 🐸🧬 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Beyond happy & honoured that Joana Meier is opening the #SIBE24 symposium on "The wild side of population genomics" that I am co-chairing with Roberto Biello! Symposium program: sibe-iseb.it/_files/ugd/03f… Don't miss Joana's exciting science: joanameier.ch #EvolutionaryBiology

Don't miss Roberto Biello presenting our study🧐 on conservation gaps and tends in seahorses 🌊🐴🐠 led by Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn 🧜‍♀️ at the free, online BioDiversity Genomics 2024 Conference on Thu Oct 31st in the topical session Marine vertebrate genomics biodiversitygenomicsconference.org

We’re delighted to share our latest preprint from the Hogenhout lab (Saskia Hogenhout, John Innes Centre) on the molecular mechanisms of plant-aphid interactions. We show how the aphid Mp10 effector protein acts as a local anesthetic, suppressing plant perception of aphid attack.

Don’t miss the first edition of the SIBE Summer School in Ferrara from 7th to 11th September 2025! Registrations are open until 20th of April! #genomics #pangenomics #conservation SIBE-Società italiana di biologia evoluzionistica

Coexisting with humans: genomic and behavioural consequences in a small and isolated bear population biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #biorxiv_genomic

We have a new pre-print! Here we show how selection may shape behavioral traits in small isolated populations. We also show selective signatures at genes associated with reduced aggressiveness, possibly involving alternative splicing Maëva Gabrielli Roberto Biello
