Today, we have received an announcement that Intranet of @charlesuni.cuni.cz is becoming an official communication channel between the university and its employees. Probably a good idea but... the university decides to ignore a few hundreds (I guess🤔) non-Czech speaking staff🤡 (please fix it!)

Our mini-review on the role of moths in pollination of tropical plants has been published! Maybe interesting not only for entomologists, botanists, and pollination ecologists...

🚨New paper on tropical moth pollination 🧵1/8 - What happens in tropical ecosystems when the day ends?🌔🦋 Our new review that @robtrop.bsky.social and I wrote highlights moths’ vital role in pollination and outlines research gaps, challenges and biases. Sharing valued! Link: doi.org/10.1017/S026...

Grateful for the opportunity to present our very recently accepted review paper on Nocturnal Moths as Pollinators in the Tropics that @robtrop.bsky.social and I wrote at the #OIKOSFin2025. Stay tuned for the full paper coming soon!

Any slug enthusiasts among my followers? Please RT. Our lab develops a slug laboratory model from Deroceras laeve (genomes, CRISPRs, small RNAs ...) and I am opening one PhD position on "piRNa and genome defense in gastropods". Info & online application here: www.img.cas.cz/kariera/phd-...

I have just arrived, finally escaped from Twitter, probably too late. Give me some time to look around...
