everything is terrible but MY FAVORITE CONFERENCE IS BACK Species on the Move - Sun Moon Lake - Taiwan - April 20-24, 2026 mark your calendars!!! #speciesonthemove #speciesonthemove2026

Completely agree. It hugely reduces the value of the substantial time invested in reviewing grants. Just been on German and Portuguese panels, and many of best proposals were resubmissions, some improved massively following revisions based on reviewers comments.

Pride in STEM's Small Grant Scheme is officially open for 2025! This year's theme is Strengthening Queer Community in STEM. If you have ideas for a small project in the United Kingdom that fits this, we would love to support you! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #QueerInSTEM More info here: prideinstem.org/2025/07/16/s...

What an amazing culmination of knowledge on Andean pollination biology, and a great team effort, led by the incredible @cristinaruedau.bsky.social

Happy to be part of this effort led by CrisRuedas and the caminos network, which has just been published today. In it we review what has been done on pollination research in the tropical Andes and propose new lines of research. Pollination onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Check out our symposium on time dependent evolutionary rates! (near the bottom of the list 😂) @EvolOdonata.ecoevo.social.ap.brid.gy

The transphobe position being expressed here is that autism sometimes causes people to falsely believe they are trans and that it's impossible to be both trans and autistic. This is of course false and is just another excuse to assert state dominance over trans lives.

Right now in the UK being an ally or comrade to trans people will mean being willing to challenge and upset various people in your workplace, your sports club, the various institutions you are part of. Despairing or posting solidarity on social media won't help without also doing the hard stuff.

It is an important time to support our trans family, friends and colleagues. A wonderful turnout of wonderfully diverse people in Aberdeen today.
