Catch Maxence Brault's talk at Symposium 04 to learn more about how to use FAIR principles in population genetics, a topic he has also approached in the recent pie recipe paper in GBE. 📋 Symposium 04 🗓️ June 29, 3:50 pm Read the paper here 👉 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evag103 #SMBE2026 #societyjournal

Nicolas Galtier @nicolasgaltier.bsky.social is presenting the hidden costs of the current publishing system and the DAFNEE initiative, which includes a list of more ethical journals #SMBE2026

Researchers in #EvolutionaryBiology & #Ecology wanting to do the right thing? @nicolasgaltier.bsky.social at #SMBE2026 talking about DAFNEE, a database of >600 #ecoevo #evoeco academia-friendly journals for "responsible publishing" - @plos.org seems to do OK here...!

For my next de-extinction project I'm eyeing the kraken. Anyone want to get suckered?

Our lab is hiring a postdoctoral researcher with expertise in bioinformatics, evolutionary genomics and single-cell data analyses, to explore the evolution of reproductive organs across fishes. We are located in Rennes, France (INRAE-LPGP). For more details: florentmuratwebpage.wordpress.com

Up to what degree of interspecific genetic distance is it possible to form viable and fertile hybrids? A strange species of paramecium breaks the record: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Réflexions intéressantes dans ce post de @freakonometrics Thread de mes réflexions et actions. Contexte: je suis chercheur dans un domaine où la forme principale de publication est l'article de journal, pas la communication de conférence, et je suis directeur de département […]

Happy to highlight an essay I wrote together with @marcdemanuel.bsky.social, @natanaels.bsky.social and Anastasia Stolyarova, trying to think through what sets the mutation rate of a cell type in an animal species: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... 1/n

Are you a recombination researcher heading to #SMBE2026? Submit your abstract to our Symposium, organised by Marie Raynaud, Laurent Duret, and myself. We're excited to have Aurora Ruiz-Herrera from UAB Barcelona as our invited speaker. 🧬🦄🦠🌿🐝🐟🍄🪱 @aruizherrera.bsky.social @duret-lbbe.bsky.social

Honored to be part of this exciting symposium at #SMBE2026! Huge thanks to Marie Raynaud, @duret-lbbe.bsky.social, and @susanjohnston.bsky.social for the invitation. Looking forward to sharing insights on recombination and evolution with such an amazing community. See you in Copenhagen!!!

Seeking a postdoc position? ​Balancing selection is a fascinating process: malaria resistance, self-incompatibility,etc. Yet, countless examples remain hidden in genomes! ​If this question intrigues you, the project led by Laure Segurel and Violaine Llaurens (Paris + Lyon) is perfect! urlr.me/Huj2De
