In community ecology, this is called the "Appendix XVII of a Peter Abrams paper" effect

Applying evolutionary theory to understand host–microbiome evolution www.nature.com/articles/s41... #microbiome #symbiosis

I am happy to announce publication of our new perspectives paper on applying evolutionary theory to host-microbiome evolution - new tricks for old dogs! @bweek.bsky.social @uni-kiel.de @transevo.bsky.social @crc1182.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our perspective on Applying Extended Synthesis Frameworks to Understand Host-Microbiome Evolution is now out in Nature EcoEvo !!! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our Quantitative Genetic approach to Modelling Microbiome-Mediated Host Adaptation is now published in Evolution !!! academic.oup.com/evolut/advan...

happy trails ::))

Interested in host-associated microbiomes? Attending @eseb2025.bsky.social? Then come check out Symposium S07 on Monday August 18th and hear all about how microbiomes contribute to adaptation. Gut microbiomes, climate change, thermal physiology, behaviour, invasion biology, blood-feeding, and more!

hey eseb ppl check out toms talk !

hai eseb people ! come to my talk introducing the quantitative genetics of microbiome mediated traits :) 2:30-2:45 at S07.02 btw our ppr just got accepted at evolution ! amazing and challenging reviews ::)) revised pre-print here www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Hey #ESEB2025 folk! I'll be presenting my work on describing evolution in finite populations at 11:30 am on Tuesday in S-03. Drop by to learn how taking ecology and variable population size seriously changes classic pop gen descriptions like the Price eqn, revealing novel directional eco-evo forces.

the biggest question i have (aside from the haze of political/cultural turmoil) is ... what software is Bob Holt using for his presentations ?? shares the aesthetics of a theoretical ecology book published around the time jurassic park came out - purple background (pseudo papyrus font?) - legendary

i made a new framework for modelling stochastic eco-evolutionary dynamics of multivariate traits !! doi.org/10.1101/2025...

I signed the Bethesda Declaration support letter and please consider signing it as well! Support NIH scientists and staff!!

The call for MSCA fellowships is soon opening! This is a great postdoc program, so do get in touch if you'd like to join our group from another country, within or outside Europe. The University of Montpellier and CNRS can train you on writing your proposal! forms.office.com/Pages/Respon...

im having martingale problems

moAr!

another cutie pie

just making some cute plots to wind down after another long day

Come do a PhD on applying evolutionary principles in agriculture, conservation, or medicine with this awesome research community here in Kiel, Germany! Deadline is March 27. Job ad and application linked below! cloud.rz.uni-kiel.de/index.php/s/... transevo.de/application

New pre-print laying foundations for a rigorous Quantitative Genetic framework to study Microbiome Mediated Traits co-authored with Hannah Tavalire, Peter Ralph, Bill Cesko, annd Brendan Bohannan!! 1/n biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

new perspective pre-print on applying frameworks in evolutionary theory to host-microbiome evolution ! co-authored with a fantastic group of thinkers i met at a workshop on symbiosis :) doi.org/10.32942/X2H...

A new platform, a new thread. Here's a thread explaining our recent work on #evolution in finite populations, now available ahead of print in @asn-amnat.bsky.social 🧬🧪
