"The academic structure … makes planning for a family feel like an impossible luxury." In this #ScienceWorkingLife, two postdocs share how, as women in academia, having children can feel impossible—and how talking about it makes them feel less alone. https://scim.ag/46uBWgD #WomenInScienceDay

Pertinent for this #11F

💜 Hoy celebramos el #11F, el Día de la Mujer y la Niña en la Ciencia 🔬🌱 En la @ebdonana.bsky.social todas hacemos ciencia. Investigadoras, técnicas, profesionales de administración y compañeras del servicio de limpieza, con su trabajo diario, hacen posible que la ciencia avance con excelencia.

La ley del unicornio: seremos invitadas a dar charlas como mujeres en un ámbito en vez de poder hablar de nuestro conocimiento en ese ámbito. Feliz #11F 😉

En este #11F queremos hablar de un dato incómodo: Aunque las mujeres representamos casi un tercio de la comunidad científica, nuestra presencia en puestos de decisión sigue siendo mínima 🚪❌ No es por falta de talento, sino por barreras que se repiten una y otra vez media.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2l...

I find this result super important!! bravo you guys!

"Understanding leaf variability within tree species" 🍃🌿🍂 I wrote a "behind the paper" post talking about our recent paper in @natcomms.nature.com communities.springernature.com/posts/unders...

In trees, intraspecific and intraindividual leaf trait variability decrease along a gradient of tree species richness and are an important part of functional diversity in forest stands, Our new paper is already out in @natcomms.nature.com doi.org/10.1038/s414... Want to know more about it? 🧵

"por una ciencia que cuide. Que cuide los cuerpos, los tiempos, los entornos y las personas que la hacen posible"

enhorabuena! 😍

Working with individual trait data and functional trait spaces and bored about means? With @cpcarmona.bsky.social, Agnese Bissi and @etordoni.bsky.social, we put together a perspective to test the effect of individual observations on trait space properties 👇👇 www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Did you know that our editors @marsobral.bsky.social and @ibartomeus.bsky.social gave a surprise talk in the AEET-SIBECOL congress? Here, you can read the full talk in english. Let’s reclaim publishing as a space that serves science and not profit! #OApublishing blogaeet.org/2025/06/19/a...

21st June: #ShowYourStripes day 1) Download your warming stripes: www.ShowYourStripes.info 2) Use the graphics to start conversations about climate change risks, how you are already experiencing the consequences and what you are doing about it 3) Encourage others to do the same

Some shots of my talk on the big stage @sibecol-aeet-25.bsky.social thanks to dear friends @marsobral.bsky.social @cmoeller.bsky.social @vtec.bsky.social @irissammarco.bsky.social @troyee.bsky.social Francesco De Bello Javier Puy #sibecol #sibecol2025 #sibecol25 ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

🎉Closing with emotion🎉
Our final full day was filled with powerful sessions, reflections, and a moving closing ceremony. We wrapped it all up with music, smiles, and the joy of having been part of something big.
Thank you for being here 💚 #SIBECOLAEET2025 #EcologyMeeting #AnotherScienceIsPossible

🌿🧘‍♀️ Because Another Science Cares At #SIBECOLAEET2025, science doesn’t just happen in sessions and symposia—it also happens in how we care for each other.

Because science grows best in spaces where we listen to our bodies, honor our emotions, and celebrate community. Let’s make room for all of it. #SIBECOLAEET2025 #Ecology #EcologyMeeting #AnotherScienceIsPossible @eco-aeet.bsky.social @mbgcsic.bsky.social @sibecol.bsky.social
