We'll be hosting a joint Crossing the Palaeontological–Ecological Gap (CPEG) meeting & Conservation Paleobiology Symposium @ucl.ac.uk in London in August 2027, which aims to bridge spatial and temporal gradients between palaeontology, ecology, and conservation: www.ucl.ac.uk/mathematical...

I'll be at the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology's annual meeting in Birmingham (UK) next week. 🦖 We have an exciting itinerary planned including several Meet the Editor sessions. Come say hi and bring your questions to any of our editors at our booth! 🤝 #SVP2025 #2025SVP #paleontology

🔹 Post-doctoral Researcher (3 years): to lead interdisciplinary work integrating paleontology, geology, geochemistry and modelling. Application deadline: 12 Nov 2025. • Post-doctoral: oulunyliopisto.varbi.com/en/what:job/...

Such an interesting (though also hard) project led by Andrew (Thank you!) - specialisation/generalisation trade-offs are really fun to think about in general, and parasites just provide a very good lens to potential mechanisms.

A PhD opportunity to work with me, @spissatella.bsky.social and our friends through CENTA - biogeography and vulnerability of exploited bivalves, with possible spin-offs about fishery sustainability and environmental economics: centa.ac.uk/studentship/...

Super excited to see the #SVP2025 #2025SVP abstract book out! Remember that all abstracts are under embargo ahead of the meeting.

Excited to see this inspiring work (by @spissatella.bsky.social and others) on the ecological consequences of (end-Cretaceous) mass extinction, also highlighting an excellent model system: doi.org/10.1126/scia...

🌍 Happy World #BiodiversityDay! What better way to celebrate than by exploring biodiversity through data? 📊 Join our course "Biodiversity in Time and Space Using R" this June with @msshanhuang.bsky.social & @joeflansan.bsky.social www.physalia-courses.org/courses-work...

Public (hybrid) lecture on fossil insights of climate impact on biodiversity (please register here: billetto.co.uk/e/climate-an...)

For anyone looking for PhDs in the UK starting October 2025 in ecology, evolution, environment etc. The new Doctoral Landscape Awards (DLAs) recently got announced so lots of people will be adverting PhDs with January deadlines. Check out findaphd.com to search for ones that interest you!

I have a 6-mo postdoc position open, which has to end by July 31st. The specific project could be determined by shared interests (macroevolution, biogeography, biodiversity dynamics in space and time) and I'm seeking further funding to extend the position. edzz.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candid...

I will be discussing some interesting patterns (e.g. LDG, extinction, etc.) and popular theories as motivations for the practicals, which will be full of elegant tricks for data analyses thanks to Joe!

(Prepping) teaching is humbling. However, confidence was boosted 100% by Wordle 992 2/6 🤣 🟩⬛🟨⬛⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

I plan to submit something, not that I could say anything as grand as the session title 😅

Already overwhelmed by social media AND a conference app before the conference starts 😳
