La FNSEA propose de supprimer le principe de précaution inscrit dans la Constitution pour le remplacer par le principe d’innovation. Le syndicat agricole recycle là un vieux projet des industriels de la chimie, du tabac et des pesticides.

Il y a des chances. De toute façon pour faire un truc aussi culotté il faut avoir un poste stable (et être à quelques années de la retraite doit aider aussi).
“The city’s transition away from the car, tho fantastically chaotic, has become a global role model. Under mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social, Paris was ‘the most influential city in the world’ says Canadian urbanist Brent Toderian. Hidalgo, stepping down after 12 yrs, exulted: ‘The bike beat the car.’”
We have a new exiting PhD position in our program on the skin microbiome of amphibians, supervised by @cortazar-chinarro.bsky.social! Follow the link to read more and apply: www.uu.se/en/about-uu/.... Deadline the 8th of May.
Article rétracté c'est effectivement la honte, mais il faut que les employeurs fassent leur travail en cherchant TOUTES les publications d'un-e candidat-e.
Les causes:
-journaux prédateurs qui ne font pas la revue comme il faut
-dans les journaux sérieux les relecteurs ne vérifient pas les sources d'un article, parce qu'ils n'ont pas le temps.
-les gens mahonnêtes existent en science
-suffit de pas mentionner article retracté sur son CV
We’re recruiting!
Exciting opportunities in our lab supported by a
@wellcometrust.bsky.social Discovery Award.
• Postdoctoral researchers
• Research assistant/PhD students
Join us to study how neural circuits drive decision-making.
Deadline 26/04

A picture of a Red Wood Ant mound. The mound is composed of pebbles, twigs and pine needles. The inside of the mound is visible and shows a series of corridors and chambers, one of which is filled with ants.
Picture from my lab. The ants built their nest against the terrarium wall, letting me see the inside layout. Zoom in the round chamber to see the #ant cuddle party.

Flyer advertising special collection of stories for Frontiers for Young Minds. We invite expressions of interest for a curated collection of short articles on animal behavior to be published in Frontiers for Young Minds, an open-access journal for readers ages 8–15. This international collection, developed in collaboration with the Animal Behavior Society, will introduce young readers to how scientists explain behavior using Tinbergen’s four questions. Each article will be co-authored by a researcher and an undergraduate, with an emphasis on clear, engaging communication. Articles will be ~1,500 words and designed for a broad student and classroom audience. Contributors will work with an undergraduate co-author and participate in iterative editorial development prior to submission. We anticipate selecting approximately 10–12 articles, depending on the strength and diversity of submissions.
Do you love animal behavior & want to share that joy with younger folks?
Write a short article on animal behavior for Frontiers for Young Minds (ages 8–15), co-authored with an undergrad! Part of an international ABS collection. Expression of interest due April 30.

New postdoc opportunity: We’re looking for an independently-minded postdoctoral Research Assistant/Associate in biogeography, ecology, environmental science or a related field to join our Leverhulme Trust funded project studying urban sensory pollution. jobs.ncl.ac.uk/job/Newcastl...
This was indeed well written and clear.
My proposal: all funders mandate that all research they fund _must_ be published in their own, in-house journals. Possibly with a rating system like @elife.bsky.social. This would kill the chase for the elite publication and reemphasized content over venue.
I am hiring a research assistant (vampire bats), a Panama fieldwork coordinator (vampire bats), and also considering postdoc apps (social behavior, any species): socialbat.org/2026/02/19/h...
None of those conclusions come as a surprise, but it is still useful to have a study to confirm and measure the phenomenon
IMPACT OF PARENTHOOD ON UNIVERSITY EMPLOYMENT. Line graph shows how the probability of holding a research position changes from four years before to seven years after having children.
Becoming a parent is much more detrimental to women’s academic careers than it is to men’s

Je n'ai pas dessiné la fourmi, mais merci! Une photo et une image marcheraient bien ensemble, mais dans la plupart des cas les gens ne cliquent pas sur le post et ne voient que l'image de couverture :(
Cette photo me fait tellement mal au coeur... Personne ne devrait se faire rabaisser comme ça.
Une illustration est toujours la bienvenue mais dans ce cas le petit dessin humoristique fait toute la différence. Un dessin de ce genre attire beacoup plus l'attention
Strong recommendation to teaching faculty to just say no to this stuff, even if you are AI curious/enthusiastic. This is meant to reduce faculty autonomy and capture human labor with automation. You're selling out your future self and the profession as a whole. www.insidehighered.com/news/tech-in...

Stand Up for Science appelle toutes celles et tous ceux qui défendent les sciences comme biens communs à manifester le jeudi 26 mars 2026.
A Paris, le cortège partira de Jussieu à 16h pour rejoindre le Panthéon en passant par la rue des Ecoles, le boulevard Saint Michel et la rue Soufflot.
En France, la cruauté envers les animaux est interdite… sauf lorsqu’elle est couverte par une « tradition locale ».
Résultat : des mineurs peuvent participer à des corridas et tuer des veaux dans certaines arènes.

New research from MSU Entomology shows honeybees can “swim” across water and orient toward dark areas that likely mark the shore, but a commonly used insecticide disrupts this life-saving behavior.
