Super hyped that our project *PREDICT – Platform for REsilient Data Integration and Coordinated Forecasting Tools* is among the selected ones - oscars-project.eu/news/2nd-osc... We will demystify complex ecological predictions to make them usable for decision makers. @ebdonana.bsky.social

Amy Angert and I are recruiting a #postdoc to participate in a collaborative NSF-funded study of demographic responses to climate across the geographic range of the scarlet monkeyflower. Please repost! jobs.ncsu.edu/postings/224...

Biological modeling is organized inquiry, but how should we think about the process? My new paper in #EcologyLetters argues that we should model like experimentalists: define treatments, measure responses, validate, perturb, repeat. 👉 doi.org/10.1111/ele.... Do you agree?

I am pleased to announce a new postdoctoral position in Theoretical Ecology. More info here: info.bc3research.org/2025/11/06/p...

The idea for this seminar series is the product of a conversation at the @ecolsocaus.bsky.social conference. We were inspired by great online seminars like the @iite-ecotheory.bsky.social and @theobiophysics.bsky.social but wanted to have something in our time zone. Now the idea has come to life 🤩
