My first contribution to beetle research in Current Biology 🦏
Stay tuned to know more about the genomic mechanisms underlying this cool weapon!

"Science is fun and being a scientist is a fun job!"
On this year's International Day for Women and Girls in Science, listen to 2023 medicine laureate Katalin Karikó speak about being a scientist.
What is your favourite thing about being a scientist?

Obituary to our former editor-in-chief, colleague, and friend.
Gather 'round for storytime, kids!
Many intellectual giants <cough [bots] cough> this week losing their fecal sacs over the @AmOrnith decision to replace eponymous names for birds.
"You're erasing history" they cry.
Let's explore some history with #BachmansSparrow. 🧵1\12
MIGRATION ALERT: More than 600 MILLION birds predicted for tonight! Given the tragic mass window collisions in Chicago (see our previous post), it's an important time to dim nonessential outdoor lights at night & make your windows safer for birds: https://t.co/CboDf0WiNr
Our new paper in @nature shows that protected areas work. They slow wildlife declines by as much as five times. Groups like amphibians and birds benefit most from protected areas. Stellar work with @JustiNowakowski @jessieldk@LOFrishkoff

Here's the story of how some senior academics plagiarized my work, led by my former advisor Stuart Pimm.
I reported research misconduct to @DukeU a while ago.
Earlier this year, they had to acknowledge their wrongdoing, though they did so very subtly.
This is what happened👇
So you have been accused of being a bully...? Now what? As a professor, I have witnessed 5 cases recently where a mentor or colleague was accused of harassing and bullying someone else. In 3 cases, accused individuals reflected and responded, what do I need to change?
Thank you to the Local Organisers, Volunteers and Caterers for yet another stunning feat, the #SMBE2023 Gala Dinner last night. You even ordered a lightning display for us, wow!
(Do share your pictures, all?)
@MafaldaSFe has been working on Atlantic herring adaptation. Lovely to hear her explain how SVs have shaped herring populations and how they perfectly distribute over latitudinal gradients in concordance to water temperature🐟🌡

Thank you @SMBE_IDEA@OfficialSMBE for the SMBE Virtual Lab program. Being part of this program has been phenomenal. I have grown my international network, my knowledge and skills.
Grateful for my amazing mentor-Josefa Gonzalez and for the opportunity to be part of her lab.
If any PIs are interested in recruiting students lmk! I am broadly interested in sensory ecology, community ecology, conservation and computational methods! I have a wide range of research experiences! I will be at ESA and SACNAS and I would love to chat about opportunities!
Come check my poster tonight (cloisters 859) to learn about my work on animal weapons evolution in rhinoceros beetles 🦏⚔️

I'm excited to present my PhD project in this beautiful place in @Ferrara#smbe23 !
If you r interested in evolution of recombination landscapes in cichlid fishes, let's meet at 6 tonight at the poster 291 in San Paolo cloister!
