The lab of Johannes Zimmermann at Jena University has an opening for a PhD position - exciting research in a highly innovative group: www.jsmc-phd.de/admission/va...
🌺 PhD position in Theoretical Evolutionary Biology! 🌺
There is about two weeks left to apply to come work with me on the evolution of plant reproductive strategies at @unifr.bsky.social ! Contact me or visit here or for more info: tinyurl.com/monoecy
Please share! 🌱
See the new paper by Hanne Griem-Krey and @michaelhabig.bsky.social on hitchhiking on starships... fungi are weird!
Just out: our new study on hysteresis and antibiotic resistance! Great work by Florian Buchholz, Lina Upterworth, Roderich Roemhild and others, incl @bramkamplab.bsky.social @holgersondermann.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...
super thankful for all the feedback i got from the homies and reviewers , and especially to some really detailed feedback i got from one reviewer . beyond helped to make it killer piece of werk im rly proud of now ::] ty
new framework for stochastic eco-evo dynamics of multivariate traits now published at jtb 1 new result on response of G matrices to drift , questioning classical wisdom 2 new tools to make measure-valued processes accessible 3 synthesis of classic multvr quant gen ! enjoi :3

birs @ banff ist fantastisch 10/10 do recommend maria martignoni rebecca tyson jimmy garnier organized a truly awesome workshop on host-microbiome modelling ::))

new favorite field thats not my field . and possibly most interesting read this year

excited to announce v2 of my stochastic eco-evo framework is up ! main text now clarifies links w prev werk and points to an emp test of gen corrs result . supp greatly expanded to include worked derivations and further explanation of mathematical foundations !! hope u enjoi ;)

Really nice opportunity to run polygenic adaptation experiments on Drosophila as a postdoc with the great @nedabarghi.bsky.social ! Located at MPI in the lovely town of Ploen. Come join this wonderful research community ::))

I am happy to announce publication of our new perspectives paper on applying evolutionary theory to host-microbiome evolution - new tricks for old dogs! @bweek.bsky.social @uni-kiel.de @transevo.bsky.social @crc1182.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Our perspective on Applying Extended Synthesis Frameworks to Understand Host-Microbiome Evolution is now out in Nature EcoEvo !!!

happy trails ::))
Interested in host-associated microbiomes? Attending @eseb2025.bsky.social? Then come check out Symposium S07 on Monday August 18th and hear all about how microbiomes contribute to adaptation. Gut microbiomes, climate change, thermal physiology, behaviour, invasion biology, blood-feeding, and more!
hey eseb ppl check out toms talk !
hai eseb people ! come to my talk introducing the quantitative genetics of microbiome mediated traits :) 2:30-2:45 at S07.02
btw our ppr just got accepted at evolution ! amazing and challenging reviews ::)) revised pre-print here

Stochastic differential equations for trait frequencies, mean value of a trait, and the variance of a trait in the population
Hey #ESEB2025 folk! I'll be presenting my work on describing evolution in finite populations at 11:30 am on Tuesday in S-03. Drop by to learn how taking ecology and variable population size seriously changes classic pop gen descriptions like the Price eqn, revealing novel directional eco-evo forces.
