POSTDOC recruitment! We’re looking for a post-doc to join us to work on the (epi)genetic basis of inbreeding depression as part of the ANR-funded project FRIDA macrostomum.wordpress.com/the-genetic-... Please share!

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...

New Pre-print Alert ‼️ Fascinated by bird nests? Me too!! Some birds add fresh green plants to their nests, even after laying eggs! 🌿 Could this behaviour have benefits? Check out our meta-analysis on @ecoevorxiv.bsky.social here: doi.org/10.32942/X2X... Why do birds use green nest material?

Meet our plenary speaker Kulbhushansingh Suryawanshi Director of the India Program for the Snow Leopard Trust working on snow leopards and human-wildlife coexistence in the high Himalaya. His work focuses on the interactions between large carnivores, their wild prey, and farming communities.

New preprint on @ecoevorxiv.bsky.social : Why do birds bring fresh green plants to their nests? 🕊️ From courtship displays to parasite defense, many hypotheses have been proposed — but what does the evidence really say? Check out our systematic review & meta analysis: doi.org/10.32942/X2X...

New in #ProcB - From policy to practice: Progress towards #data- and #code-sharing in ecology and evolution @asanchez-tojar.bsky.social @eivimeycook.bsky.social tell us more in our blog royalsociety.org/blog/2025/09...

📣 Hot off the press at #ProcB! 🔍 Our study checked data/code-sharing policies in 275 eco/evo journals and compliance in Proc B (n=2,340) & Ecology Letters (n=571). Policies exist, but clarity and strictness vary, affecting reproducibility. 🔗 doi.org/10.1098/rspb...

Publication alert! ✨ Our recent paper in Ecology & Evolution addresses how to make conferences more inclusive. We collected observational and experimental data during Q&A sessions at the Behaviour 2023 congress hosted by Bielefeld University, and circulated a survey among conference attendees [1/4]

We’re offering a fully funded 4 yr PhD position to work on Sexual selection in complex environments at the @uv.es. Co-supervised by @dbergerbiol.bsky.social. Find details below 👇

In 2023, we conducted a study during an international conference in Bielefeld to investigate patterns of inequality at the conference through Q&A sessions and an extensive post-conference survey. The study is finally out in Ecology & Evolution: 🔗https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ece3.71588

In our latest preprint, we showcase how to use a phylogenetic meta-analysis of variance to test evolutionary hypotheses across species. We collected data for 172 birds (314 populations) to test patterns of stabilising selection and canalisation for wing length. 🔗 doi.org/10.32942/X2P...
