We are delighted that our Winter Meeting 2025 in Leuven 🇧🇪 is approaching! Abstract submissions now open: www.iussi-nweurope.org/meetings Date: December 18-19 Abstract deadline: October 15 Host: Laboratory of Socioecology and Social Evolution at KU Leuven Plenary: Ido Pen & @rmash.bsky.social

Too bad the article is behind a pay all, but the title says a lot. We don’t talk enough about mental health challenges in academia and most institutions don’t seem to have resources in places to support students and postdocs going through difficult times www.nature.com/articles/d41...

UPDATE: The 2025-2026 list of faculty and postdoc positions in ecology and evolutionary biology is out! Be sure to check out this active and helpful community run resources! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Confused writing is usually a symptom of confused thinking. As we struggle to clarify writing, we clarify our thoughts. AI writing aids rob us of that struggle, leaving clean-looking text and thoughts still confused for lack of inspection. Writing is not just a product; it is a diagnostic tool.

Thanks @christianhof.bsky.social for inviting me to give a keynote #gfoe2025! Lots of interesting talks so far and for coming

So much of functional trait ecology has not considered intra-specific variation (often for lack of data), but here is a guide to using ITV when the data is available

Great opportunity to play an important role in open research with the largest society of ecologists in the world! You can have an impact by working with editors of multiple journals! It comes with a financial compensation! Good way to network if you are EARLY CAREER!!!

Hot off the press 🔥 New Ecological Monographs paper shows why, when and how to include intraspecific trait variability to enhance functional diversity research. Huge shout out to Facundo Palacio for his vision and leadership. Read here 👉 doi.org/10.1002/ecm.... #traits #functionaldiversity 📏🌐

✨ The Bernhardt Lab at the University of Guelph is recruiting graduate students for 2026! Join us! We have several fully funded grad positions available ✨ Please spread the word! www.bernhardtlab.org/join-us #CSEE2025

Seeking Data Editors! Are you an ecologist or environmental scientist with a keen interest in open research? We're looking for Data Editors to work with our journals & implement our Open Research Policy. Honorarium provided! 🚨Applications due 7/18🚨 Learn more: shorturl.at/3qzIu

Great workshop this morning led by Mike Dawson on navigating scientific publishing and responsibility and opportunities we have at making it better. Includes great examples of long lasting impacts of society run journals (love seeing @asn-amnat.bsky.social at the top!) #Evol2025

Postdoc call in Mechanistic Biodiversity Modelling (up to 6 ya) at my lab @unibonn.bsky.social. We focus on modelling terrestrial plant communities, island biogeography, range dynamics, eco-evolutionary feedbacks, diversity gradients, tropical forests, vascular epiphytes. Pls rt! shorturl.at/CL1ny

To solve the reviewer crisis, Brian McGill argues that we should review 2 papers for each submission we make to a journal. If your paper gets rejected and you end up submitting to 3 different journals, then you owe the community 6 reviews. dynamicecology.wordpress.com/2025/06/10/y...

Global change reshuffles species communities: who could interact with whom? We introduce new ways to measure the capacity of species & communities to rewire interactions, which can be used to predict how ecological networks might adapt to changing conditions. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

"Dark diversity" sometimes pops up to warn us that it is real even if concealed to our eyes. I've only met Myolepta difformis (Syrphidae) twice in my life, when I took these two photos (both on flowers of Cistus monspeliensis). Just two occasions on 15 years, or living in the "darkness" 87% of time
