I’m so excited for this preprint to be out! It’s my first first-author paper & the first paper of my PhD!!!! 🧬🐆

We found novel pseudogenization events fixed in multiple cheetahs in fertility & immune-related genes ⬇️

I've just been told that my PhD #metaanalysis paper was not only a #TopDownloadedArticle but also one of the top 10 most-cited papers published in Journal of Animal Ecology! 👏

Crunching worms, squeaking voles, drumming ants: how scientists are learning to eavesdrop on the sounds of soil

🎧 Listen to what soil sounds like with and without 🦓💩

Ever looked at a bar chart and thought “there must be a better way of plotting this data…”? Look no further than sea stack plots!

Check out our paper on improving data visualisation in ecology!

New paper led by Juan Serratosa, we mapped migratory bird mortality (1704 deaths of 45 species) and the main causes of death. Electrocution is particularly impactful (40.5% of mortality) showing new measures are urgently needed to decrease this mortality risk UEA School of Environmental Sciences UEA CEEC

Great to see the 4 little storks being encouraged to feed by their parent (I was lucky to capture that moment!). They are looking great despite the recent winds and rain White Stork Project excellent hatching rate. UEA School of Environmental Sciences UEA CEEC

Congratulations Vildan Acar 👏 well deserved and nice to see UEA CEEC feature at #BOU2024

Many thanks to everyone at #BOU2024 for recommending my poster! It was a great conference with great people and full of inspiring talks!

Great to be in Nottingham for #BOU2024 and looking forward to hearing Amanda Rodewald Cornell Lab deliver the Alfred Newton lecture BOU 👩🏻‍🏫👨🏿‍🏫🧕🏽👳🏽‍♂️ 🌈 #ornithology

Ready to share my research outline at #BOU2024 , aiming to answer 4 key questions at the intersection of gut microbiota(GM), behavior, and urbanisation in wild, using great tits as model. 🌟 No results yet, but excited for what we'll discover throughout my PhD journey! #BREAK1

The #BOU2024 Urban Birds conference is underway with the 1st ECR workshop from Natalia Zielonka (she/her) 🌈 on using social media as an ornithologist. Looks like it's time to start blogging! BOU 👩🏻‍🏫👨🏿‍🏫🧕🏽👳🏽‍♂️ 🌈 BTO RSPB

Great article about the UK white storks. They are learning new migratory ways and are already showing a diversity of movement strategies. Thanks to all that send sightings White Stork Project UEA School of Environmental Sciences UEA CEEC bbc.com/future/article…

Had a great time presenting some of my PhD work and hearing about all the amazing research at #SCCS2024 last week!

I am very happy to announce the recent publication of a beautiful theory paper with Michael Scott and Karl Mackintosh (not on X) on the interactions between mating system evolution and haploid gametic selection in PLOS Genetics
