🎉 Exciting milestone … my first PhD paper has been accepted in the Journal of Experimental Biology! 🥳 Not all winter warming is equal: steady, mild winters increase activity and can cause molecular damage, but short, warm spells have little effect on wall lizards 🦎

PhD opportunity with me at University of Edinburgh linked with Forest Research, funded by E5 DTP. On the microbial mechanisms of soil carbon cycling in tree-planted upland soils. Apply before 14th Dec. Please share with your network. Pic: one of our Scottish sites. e5-dtp.ed.ac.uk/project?item...

📣 New PhD student position opening in my lab! Soils are full of microbes, but how many are active? Surprisingly, we still lack reliable methods to answer this. If you are interested in microbial dormancy and are fascinated by the Alps and glacier forefields, contact me. 🏔️ 🦠 💤 🧬 🎓

PhD opportunity in my lab!
We’re looking for a proactive student to join our project on how CO dehydrogenase is regulated in response to atmospheric mercury. Investigating genetic markers and mechanisms of CO dehydrogenase regulation in response to atmospheric mercury FindAPhD.com

Just published an interactive article about a magical algorithm known as the Burrows-Wheeler Transform, which powers sequence alignment tools like bowtie and bwa: sandbox.bio/concepts/bwt It's also notoriously unintuitive so I'm hoping this article helps you build that intuition.

If you’re looking for a PhD studentship in some really exciting areas of plant science 🌿 take a look at this year’s Sainsbury PhD studentships - you could come and study orchid mycorrhizas 🌸🍄 with me & @garethphoenix.bsky.social! www.findaphd.com/phds/program...

First PhD sampling completed! I went to sample the blackout experiment with 20-year old bare fallow plots at the Henfaes Research Farm (Bangor University) Here, we want to study SOM/SOC and the cycling of “old persistent” carbon in the absence of new fresh plant input.

"Women are PIs on 58% of the canceled grants, although they are PIs on only 34% of all active NSF grants. Similarly, Blacks are PIs on 17% of the terminated grants, although they make only 4% of the total pool. Hispanic PIs and those with disabilities were twice as likely to lose a grant."

🚨 PhD alert. PhD opportunity studying how nutrient availability impacts the ability of ecosystems to absorb more CO2 as CO2 levels rise. With Catriona MacDonald and Ben Smith at Western Sydney University and myself here @sheffieldpps.bsky.social Sheffield www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

NEW preprint!🥳 Orthogroups are a prerequisite for comparative genomics and Tree of Life inquiries Introducing #OrthoHMM, software that improves the inference of orthogroups (blue in fig) OrthoHMM may refine our understanding of genome evolution and the Tree of Life 🔗 tinyurl.com/4s9mwxz6 🧵 1/8

Abstract submission for the International Mountain Conference in Innsbruck #IMC25 is open! Come join us for a great session on mountain soil biodiversity: imc2025.info/imc25/sessio... @msteinwandter.bsky.social @nadinepraeg.bsky.social @euracalpenv.bsky.social

I am really happy that I was able to present my first PhD results and I am grateful to the jury for this prize 🦠🧬

One of the biggest questions we get is when will our journals be here. We thank you for your patience. You can now follow our journals with this starter pack!
