Our “Why are cells the size they are?” workshop was an inspiring delight. Thanks to all the participants and @biologists.bsky.social, I’m so grateful to everyone.

The Why Are Cells The Size They Are workshop by @biologists.bsky.social was superb. The attendee list was exceptional and whole thing was inspiring. Chose a special conference to be my first for nearly three years.

The Company of Biologists Workshop: Why Are Cells the Size They Are? Thank you to Workshop organisers Dustin Marshall and Craig White. #Workshop #Biology #CellBiology #Cells #Community #Collaboration #Research #Researchers #Academia #Academics

In about a week we (Biological Sciences @ Monash Uni in Melbourne, Australia) will be opening a search for 3 (!!!) permanent academic positions (40% research, 40% teaching, 20% service) at Lecturer/Senior Lecturer. 1 Genomics, 2 Ecology. Please share, email me, DM, follow, send carrier pigeons…

Why throwing all potential predictors into your model and letting it decide has, and always will, be bad for inference.

Very exciting news! In Sept 2025, I will move my lab to the School of Biological Sciences @monashbiol.bsky.social at #Monash University in Melbourne! I am recruiting #PhD students to work on #ecological & #evolutionary dynamics of #phytoplankton #communities – find out more here giuliaghedini.com

Happy to share our new paper! We tested how species evolve in response to #competition. We tracked the evolution of 3 #phytoplankton species, evolved alone or together. Our main finding is that #density-dependence weakens through #evolution to increase population production. doi.org/10.1002/ece3...
