At last, thanks & apologies to everyone who went to my talk in #ESEB2025. I said this new version of our manuscript would be online "soon", but it ended up taking this long. 😂 Now that it's here, come & check it out!

Proud to have presented two poster presentations at #ESEB Congress in #Barcelona about our work on the hybridising and rapidly evolving spined loaches (Cobitis)🐟🧬

I had a really great time at ESEB 2025. I think the organizers did a great job 👍, and it was a truly gargantuan effort. I am excited that the next ESEB is a hub conference. I hope that future ESEBs also decide to go plant based and plastic free to become even more sustainable. #ESEB2025 #ESEB2027

What a great conference #ESEB2025 was! Catching up with, and making new friends 🤓 I also presented our latest results on genetic load. And Barcelona was 👌🏼

Here are all the talks I attended and sketched at #ESEB2025 ! Only a fraction of the 642 speakers at the conference 😮

I had an absolutely amazing week chatting about lots of fascinating science

Had an amazing time at #ESEB2025 in Barcelona, learning new science, meeting great people, and presenting my PhD work on genomic signatures of symbiosis in a beetle-associated fungus. Surreal that my poster won 2nd place! Grateful to the #MutualismsLab, MPI Biology & ESEB for the support 🍄🪲

We had a fantastic time at #ESEB2025 thanks to the organizers and see you all in copenhagen for #SMBE2026!!

I am so happy I got the chance to present our work at #eseb2025 I heard many great and inspiring talks and met some awesome people.

Poster titled 'The Evolution of the Mammalian Oral Microbiome'

Thanks to everyone who stopped by my poster for your thoughful questions, remarks and suggestions (all duly noted)!
If you didn’t get to see it and are interested in wild animal #microbiomes 🦠🦷 or #museomics 🦴🧬, I’m posting it here -- an attempt to artificially extend its lifespan! #ESEB2025

Back to office, but mentally still in Barcelona and #ESEB2025 🦎

The range of questions, approaches and study systems was fascinating -- I got plenty of inspiration for my own work and my reading list has grown quite a lot!

I had the pleasure of presenting my research on "Reproductive success of immigrants depends on the population of origin in Atlantic salmon" at the ESEB Congress 2025 in Barcelona

Thanks to the organizers and to all participants ! #ESEB2025

Last week #ESEB2025 wrapped up. It was a great opportunity to chat with colleagues, hear about great evolutionary research, present the group's work, and be a proud PI of Laura, who did a great job presenting her PhD work! Two years to go until next ESEB!

Feedback so far talking about this including at #ESEB2025 recently: more conversations about this can help sharing tips on how flexible working can be effective, inspire those to try etc. Very keen to continue the conversation with our expanding working group, please get in touch with me to join!

Thank you #ESEB2025 for a wonderful week of science interactions, symposia, posters, chats with friends old and new. It's such a fantastic conference, the main challenge being choosing among so many wonderful parallel sessions! I loved being in Barcelona and seeing the energy of the organisers.
