It was a pleasure to do some cool modelling with this fascinating brood parasite system, check it out on PLoS Biol!

Warmer environments harbor greater thermal trait diversity in moth assemblages - Nature Communications Climate limits where insects can live and which species can coexist. Using thermal tolerances of 653 moths on Asian mountains, this study shows warmer temperatures broaden thermal tolerance traits div...

How do temperature regimes shape trait diversity in communities? Does variability promote more specialists or more generalists?

Our new Nature Communications paper tackles this with eco-evo simulations + 653 moth species across latitudinal and elevational gradients.

Models linking species diversity with ecological stability may not be as straightforward as we thought! Amazing talk

Excited to see our latest work published on GEB! We comprehensively compared various environmental predictability measures, their impact on statistical analyses and their global patterns 🤩

A couple of weeks ago Dr Ming Liu from Sir William Dunn School of Pathology, University of Oxford gave a very insightful External CBER Seminar on ‘Warmer environments harbor greater thermal trait diversity’ @mingpapilio.bsky.social @ox.ac.uk @dunnschool.bsky.socia
