Have you considered the role of epigenetic variation in niche individualization? We explored the interplay between interindividual phenotypic variation and epigenetic processes in a paper recently published in Trends of Ecology and Evolution 🧪 Read more here: www.cell.com/trends/ecolo...

Thank you to the best supervisor ever 🤗 Can’t believe this day finally came!

My interview with @manymindspod.bsky.social! Come for a deep dive into the evolution of kissing 💋, stay for the earth-shattering insights 🤯 "fish don't run" 🐠🏃 "monkeys tend to loll around quite a lot" 🙈 "chimps have moved on to grass-in-bumhole behaviour" 🍑🌱 disi.org/origins-of-t...

Happy 2026! I am glad to have ended 2025 one step closer to finishing my PhD. Published the first chapter of my thesis where we talk about the importance and ways of studying sex-specific effects while investigating shared mating traits. Read here: doi.org/10.1007/s002...

2025. The impact of urbanisation on social behaviour: a comprehensive review. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

🎉 Very excited to share that our review on the impact of urbanization on animal social behaviour is out now in Biological Reviews! We synthesize evidence across taxa to understand how city life reshapes social systems 🏙️🐦🐒🦎🦝🐟 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... @lizabeldm.bsky.social

1/9 I came across this paper published in #BiologyLetters @royalsociety.org by @averymaune.bsky.social and her collaborators, while working on a university project. It is about social structure in urban lizards and how cities seem to shape interaction amongst individuals. doi.org/10.1098/rsbl...

New paper out now in @jexpbiol.bsky.social! Led by star PhD student @miaryras.bsky.social, we tested the effects of winter warming (a constant increase as well as fluctuating temps - see pic) on common wall lizard behaviour and physiology. journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/...

After the Ngogo chimpanzee group killed 21 members of neighboring groups and expanded their territory by 22%, female birth rates more than doubled and infant survival increased sharply—showing clear fitness benefits from intergroup killing. In PNAS: https://ow.ly/TKmf50XuPjY

Watch #BiologyLetters author Avery Maune talk about new research revealing that urbanization can reshape social behaviour in the common wall lizard (Podarcis muralis): cassyni.com/events/3Hp2U... #AnimalBehaviour #ethology

City lizards are more social. In a new paper in #BiologyLetters, social network analysis revealed that urban lizards have more social connections and stronger bonds than their non-urban counterparts. buff.ly/kqf2YfZ | #Behaviour #UrbanEcology

New paper! 🦎 Urbanization reshapes the social behaviour of wall lizards Now out in #BiologyLetters @royalsocietypublishing.org 🔗 royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... @averymaune.bsky.social

📢 City lizards are more social ! Thrilled to share the first paper from my PhD, out now in #BiologyLetters @royalsocietypublishing.org ! We show that urban lizards are more social than their non-urban counterparts 🦎🏙️🌳🧪 doi.org/10.1098/rsbl... @behavecobie.bsky.social
