🚨 Great news! The DEB special issue in Ecological Modelling is now open for submissions! 📝🌍 Submit your DEB paper now! 🎯 🔗 Check the call: www.sciencedirect.com/special-issu...

Interested in doing a postdoc in behavioral #ecotoxicology? I have a 12-months fully-funded position to work on the effects of pesticide exposure on generalist arthropod predators. More details here: rroyaute.github.io/blog/2025/po...

New preprint out from the lab, including @rroyaute.bsky.social: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... In this we test what we refer to as the "standard model" of behavioral variation. This was inspired by recent work identifying intra-genotypic variation as a major contributor to "individuality". 1/

NEWS ALERT! Clonally-reproducing species are weird. Sexually reproducing species still rely on combination of genetic + environmental cues to generate individuality like any self-respecting organism would. Film at 11 See @neddochtermann.bsky.social thread 👇

And so it begins! The DEB 2025 symposium kicked off with a presentation entitled "The evolution of how life harnesses energy and elements, from the big bang to biodiversity" by Gonçalo Marques @g-m-marques.bsky.social

#HelloESR Voici un kit de démarrage de chercheuses et chercheurs en écologie-évolution en poste en France go.bsky.app/HM6CfJ5 Aidez-moi à le compléter ! Une contrainte : une auto-nomination de chercheur doit s'accompagner d'une nomination de chercheuse

Our new paper, based on data from 1,705 studies, shows that pesticides are toxic to organisms they are not intended to harm, including fungi, microbes, plants, insects, & vertebrates such as ourselves. Questions the wisdom of applying over 3 million tonnes of them every year...

I usually reserve this account for my personal views; but today I want to represent my position as President of @asn-amnat.bsky.social to post a message that will shortly go out to the membership of the American Society of Naturalists from the ASN Executive Council

Excited to share our new paper, led by @danielwanoble.bsky.social, in @royalsocietypublishing.org! ‘We believe that the future of preprints is bright, and community-driven initiatives, such as EcoEvoRxiv, will play a crucial role in the future of scientific publishing.’ tinyurl.com/4tpbj859

Check out the new preprint from @sekharma.bsky.social! Also with @batsrkul.bsky.social (new to Bluesky!). Sekhar did a deep dive into which parts of an agonistic interaction are influenced by direct and indirect effects, from the physical to acoustic components.

Go work with Ned! He’s a wonderful scientist and mentor (plus, the subject looks really cool 😁)

I have a PhD position open to start fall semester 2025! The position will include investigations of the structure of both phenotypic (behavioral) plasticity and genetic variation in behavior as well as lots of opportunity to develop your own project. #Evolution #evobio #evolsky #Ecology 🧪

How does pollution impact behavioural evolution? We're looking for an awesome PhD student to find out. Project spans behaviour, genetics + ecotox, working with cherry shrimp @exetercec.bsky.social. Cosupervised with @lauraakelley.bsky.social and Dave Spurgeon at CEH. App + info tinyurl.com/yvthn7xn

I'm teaching a graduate course on meta-analyses this coming semester. Question for the bluesky ecology and evolution community: What are some of your favorite meta-analyses that changed your understanding of a topic? Or, just cool questions? Please repost! 🧪 #Evolution #Ecology #Biology

Interested in doing a postdoc with me in behavioral #ecotoxicology? The AgroEcoSystem dept. @inrae funds 12 months fellowships. Expected start in fall 2025 & call submission deadline by end of September 2024. Reach out if interested! rroyaute.github.io/blog/2024/po...

Join our workshop: An introduction to using simulations for study design and pre-registration, by Joel Pick When: 30th May, 10:00 am CEST This workshop is aimed at empiricists from any career stage or discipline. Register at events.humanitix.com/sortee-works... #SORTEEtools

Myself & colleagues (none on bluesky) have a new paper out in PNAS. We simulated the evolution of populations on different landscapes and examined the effects of landscape type on G matrices. We then compared the simulated Gs to ~150 estimates of G from 60 species. (1/10)

Don't miss out! Our March workshop on dbplyr is this week! Secure your spot now if you haven't already. Can't wait to see you there! Register at i.mtr.cool/qxllanlwzf #SORTEEtools #DataScience #Rstats #openscience
