Two weeks left to apply for this position! Feel free to email if there are any questions.

Team fish - we need your help! We are trying to build a database of all the fish chromosome-scale genomes where sex chromosomes have been identified. Have you build one or some? Do you know someone who has? Can you post the link in the comments? Please spread the word and repost! Thank you!

Happy to share that I got 6M sek FORMAS career grant to continue investigating infection diseases in amphibian species and its relation to immunity and microbiome and the huge opportunity to be a lab leader! 😀

Breaking news! New publication in co-infection dynamics in wild amphibian populations. Thank to all co-author for the support: Jaime Bosch, Gemma Palomar @boixrichter.bsky.social and Peter halvarsson 😀. academic.oup.com/jeb/advance-...

If you want to understand why-how behavioral phebotypes change from tadpoles to metamorphs along a lat gradient check this cool paper here!. Thanks to all co-authors who has participated in all life stages of the study! 😜 dx.doi.org/10.1002/ece3...

The @scilifelab.se ancient DNA unit is looking for an bioinformatician placed at Uppsala University. This is a great way to be part of diverse #aDNA research projects as a staff scientist with permanent (!!) employment: www.uu.se/en/about-uu/...

A chromosome-level genome assembly of the European green toad (Bufotes viridis) Published yesterday in G3 @GeneticsGSA

If you want to understand why-how behavioral phebotypes change from tadpoles to metamorphs along a lat gradient check this cool paper here!. Thanks to all co-authors who has participated in all life stages of the study! 😜 dx.doi.org/10.1002/ece3...

Our super cool paper lead by @vdbijl.bsky.social and team! Congrats!

Delighted to announce our last review piece on MHC variation in space and time doi.org/10.1002/ece3.... Thanks to @Mette Lillie and Kayla King. Enjoy reading!

New paper out in Molecular Ecology! "Molecular ecology of microbiomes in the wild: Common pitfalls, methodological advances and future directions" Was great co-writing this paper with other Mol Ecol microbiome editors. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

So very happy to see this out at @genomeresearch.bsky.social . Transposon wave remodeled the epigenomic landscape in the rapid evolution of X chromosome dosage compensation. Absolutely beautiful work by Dave Metzger genome.cshlp.org/content/earl...

Just out at Nature E&E - @corrallopeza.bsky.social's tour de force! Functional convergence of genomic and transcriptomic genetic architecture underlying sociability. Heritability, GWAS and neuro-transcriptomics of collective behaviour, @ www.nature.com/articles/s41... w Niclas Kolm and many others.

As it's grant rejection time in Sweden too, all in one week and in the midst of a very dark November no less, this will certainly resonate with many more. And yes! Academic institutions should check (extra!) on their researchers right now, so many of us are not okay! #AcademicSky #mentalhealth

Our study is out where we study associations between immune genes (MHC class II) and 16s microbial diversity in Rana arvalis. Great study and great team , @JacobHglund1 , @RodinPatrik, @sweediepetie , @Aka_RichterBoix , Jürg and Laurila doi.org/10.1111/mec....

Hidden labour is all over academia and open science. Let's change that! We published a paper with some suggestions, but what we're most excited about is to hear from you in the comments section at @plos.bsky.social website - go there and add your voice to the choir!
