Now's your chance to become a PhD candidate in Forest Genetics at University of Freiburg! Your project will focus on characterizing genetic diversity of 30 European forest tree and shrub species in Germany's fascinating Biodiversity Exploratories. uni-freiburg.de/stellenangeb...

Tucked in the beech seeds for winter. ForScale project on late spring frost: officially begun ✅

An opportunity from my German region for postdocs in the U.S. facing political pressure: uni-freiburg.de/frias/call-f...

I’ve known scientific tree climbers since I started my PhD many moons ago, and now I’m finally one of them! One of the most exhausting and exhilarating things I’ve learned on this career path.

Looking forward to my first-ever American conference at the lovely (and sweltering) Penn State campus!

Our Cluster of Excellence FutureForest got funded! Seven years of research on complex social-ecological systems ahead! Stay tuned! 🌲🌳🧍🧍‍♂️🌳🌲 @uni-freiburg.de @dfg.de

Our most recent manuscript about gene flow in #Nothofagus pumilio is out now! Thanks to all my coworkers for their hard work @cristinamatsuura.bsky.social @katrinheer.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

My inner cartophile is just delighted with genomic offset analyses

An homage to Patagonia and my PhD, now physically part of me forever (in addition to the scar I have from taking tree cores). A cachaña (Enicognathus leptorhynchus) and Nothofagus pumilio leaves, among other Patagonian species 😍

New horizons, "new" job, new social media platform. On Monday I successfully defended my PhD, regarding local adaptation and gene flow in Patagonia's "Nothofagus pumilio" (tree species). Photos of me with my biological parents and my 'Doctor parents' (German term for PhD supervisors).
