Did you know that Evolution Letters now publishes reviews?! Our inaugural one is fantastic! Deep learning is opening new doors for evolutionary genomics, especially for nonmodel organisms with sparse or uncertain genomic data. doi.org/10.1093/evle...
Abstract submission may be closed, but it is not too late to sign up to attend the NLSEB Annual meeting. Great plenary talks and a great line up of talks and posters. And thanks to our sponsors NWO and @isme-microbes.bsky.social for helping making this meeting possible.

Join us on 4 Feb. to say hello, share ideas, give feedback and plan ahead!
Excited about this new paper studying competition between lipid-scavenging #parasitoids sharing the same host. The later-arriving species shifts to #hyperparasitism to ensure sufficient resources. Don't miss the amazing photos!

So proud of this paper led by MSc student Jasmin Merkel!
It shows the long-term detrimental effects of high sugar diet and the lack of evolutionary adaptation to it. This is in insects but humans probably don't fare much better...

So happy for you Aileen, it is a great new opportunity! (Although I am sad that you are leaving VU Amsterdam)
RIP Jane Goodall. You'll live through the inspiration you instilled in all of us.
