Great opportunity at a great institution in a great city!

led by @mlagisz.bsky.social - an important message to all learnt society #EcoEvo royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10....

Happy to share that my paper on creativity in research labs is out in the "Ten Simply Rules" article series. Ten simple rules for fostering creativity in research labs I hope you find it to be useful. #AcademicSky journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol...

Painted lady butterflies that migrate from Europe to the Mediterranean are not genetically distinct from those that migrate from Europe to West Africa. Instead, environmental cues likely determine migration distance. In PNAS Nexus: academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/ar...

It's Valentine's Day, so let's talk about sex. Eel sex! Well...we can't, really. We don't know exactly where, or how, eels get busy. It's a 2000+ year old puzzle. It's not like we haven't tried. But the sex life of eels is a mystery smothered in secret sauce. 1/5 🗃️🧪

Amazing work by @cegrueber.bsky.social - not only the content (excellent) but also the quality of methodology (outstanding) - follow this paper if you want to do a meta-analysis bsky.app/profile/cegr...

New paper led by Losia Lagisz out today in @royalsocietypublishing.org! 'We recommend tangible actions towards making learned societies more affordable and accessible.' tinyurl.com/2jww44j2

Excited to share our new paper, led by @danielwanoble.bsky.social, in @royalsocietypublishing.org! ‘We believe that the future of preprints is bright, and community-driven initiatives, such as EcoEvoRxiv, will play a crucial role in the future of scientific publishing.’ tinyurl.com/4tpbj859

Check out our new contribution, a massive collaboration brilliantly led by @danielwanoble.bsky.social. Full of interesting insights such as "What's the average time between the first manuscript submission to its acceptance in a scientific journal?" Go figure that and more at doi.org/10.1098/rspb...

Interesting study on who stays in academia www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
