Poster advertising the inaugural Gordon Research Conference on Urban Evolution and Ecology held January 31-February 5, 2027 in Ventura Beach, California
We are pleased to announce the inaugural Gordon Research Conference on Urban Evolution and Ecology which will be held from Jan. 31 - Feb. 5, 2027. Please save the dates, and we look forward to welcoming you to beautiful Ventura Beach, California!
That both of Turning Point USA’s founders are dead from public health crises their organization worked hard to enable is a parable for our time.
UT's entomology teaching lab, where I run the fall field entomology class, is being forced out of its decades-long home to make room for the Republican Civitas think tank.
No obvious replacement site for us has been offered.
Now published! We examine how female competition shapes movement ecology. We provide the first genetic evidence of female philopatry and male-biased dispersal in a socially polyandrous bird species!

Thanks for the response hannah! i'm not on slack..would love to get deets to the google sheet whenever that's available
anyone know what is going to happen with the #BRC-BIO NSF fellowships?? (lol prolly not) #BRC #NSF #earlycareer
A card showcasing Dr. Maurine Neiman, Preprint Editor for Proceedings B, and informing that the team is recruiting new members.
Interested in learning more about #preprints and publishing? Join me and @maurineneiman.bsky.social on the @royalsocietypublishing.org ProcB Editorial Preprint Team! We are now accepting applications from #ECR to assess preprints for potential submission to Proceedings B! 1/3
Much thanks to the NSF for funding and the SQuID workshop for facilitating this international collaboration! 4/4
Such information is fundamental not only to our understanding of how behaviors might change in urban environments--but also to our understanding of their potential for evolution in the face of human-induced rapid environmental change. 3/n
We examine how behavioral means, variances, repeatability, and correlations differ between paired nonurban and urban conspecific populations and find robust evidence for increased average boldness, aggression, exploration, and activity in urban populations. 2/n
I am very happy to announce my 1st postdoc preprint on
@biorxiv-ecology.bsky.social!! @neddochtermann.bsky.social, Anne Charmantier, & I use meta-analysis to provide the first quantitative evidence of urban-associated behavioral shifts across taxa globally (130 species!). tinyurl.com/dwpkufe2 🧵1/n
