@devisatarkar.bsky.social gave beautiful talk on the extent to which social network traits are heritable vs. shaped by the spatial & social environment at birth using long-term data on blue tits 🐣🧬 @behaviour2025.bsky.social @asab.org

Wild great tits signal ‘divorce’ long before the breeding season — even in the winter, months before the couples rebreed with different partners in the following spring New study with @universityofleeds.bsky.social in @royalsocietypublishing.org 👇 bit.ly/4lRt7TN @sheldonbirds.bsky.social

New research shows that the early-life environment of great tits shapes their adult behaviour more than their genetics 🐦🍃. Read more here ⬇️ bit.ly/40SkDDT @devisatarkar.bsky.social, @sheldonbirds.bsky.social, @iremsepil.bsky.social 📷 @davididiaquez.bsky.social

Lovely to see Devi Satarkar’s first DPhil paper out in print

Had such a wonderful time at #ECBB2024 where I had the privilege of presenting my PhD work at an international conference for the first time ever! Beautiful city & campus and absolutely brilliant people & research 🤩 Thanks to everyone for being so encouraging about my work 🐣

Excited to share the first preprint from my PhD https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.07.11.603055 Turns out social phenotypes are not heritable in great tits! Presenting this at #ECBB2024 tomorrow (10 am, Meerkat room). Please come along if you like social networks and birds!...

Presented my first ever poster at the @royalsociety conference on age and sociality this week and immensely enjoyed 2 days of really cool research and chatting with even cooler people 🤩 Massive thanks to the organisers for such an enlightening meeting ✨

Wonderful talk this evening by @WhySharksMatter at @morethanadodo. So many cool shark facts & anecdotes! TIL that some female sharks can just birth clones of themselves🦈 they don’t need no man 🫢 Great insights on irresponsible conservation actions due to misinformation too

Excited to share my 1st ever paper that got published last week! It's a #review on the role of CXCR3 (a chemokine receptor) in neuronal 🧠 and cardiovascular 🫀 diseases. Beyond grateful for @drchinmoypatra's encouragement and guidance as I wrote...
