!!Funded PhD available (start 2024)!! Do you want to study #collectivebehaviour in weaver ants (in particular how they build their ultra-cool and totally unstudied silk nests), and develop #bioinspired#3Dprinting#swarmrobotics? Let me know! And please RT!
Hey tweeps, help an author out? Have you ever worked with an indexer who did a great job for you? If so, could you share contact info? Thanks!

MEGA FACTCHECK
EVs are “likely crucial” for tackling transport CO2, says the IPCC – and sales are rocketing
But EVs still face relentless hostile media coverage
So, I spent the past few months debunking 21 (!) of the most common EV myths

Hello #JMIH23! I am recruiting PhD students to my new lab @uvabio starting Fall '24. I won't be at JMIH to meet in person, but I look forward to chatting with interested students about opportunities in the lab - thanks for spreading the word!
I am looking for 1-2 PhD students and 1 postdoc to join my lab (https://t.co/nnjrtizajc). I will be available to chat with potential candidates about these positions during #ESA2023 at Portland, Oregon in 2 weeks. RT and spread the words please, thanks! https://t.co/pYF5t8Cmx1
🧵Since it is becoming hard to track, here is a thread of the simply astounding weather records planet Earth has started shattering in recent weeks:
1. Dramatic flood events have begun striking various countries around the world simultaneously this week.

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes! 🤯 Even for me as a nest researcher, these are the craziest bird nests I've ever seen. Today my paper came out on this rebellious behaviour. And it's like telling a joke...
A thread. 🧵
@3rdreviewer I think many other countries have campaigns with police issuing warnings to everyone who fails to signal properly at roundabouts.
In Indiana on the other hand, courts ruled that signaling wasn't even required in principle (in 2020) https://t.co/Vtf9NQdLFo
Here's an odd request: a friend works for a museum in the UK & is in charge of redesigning exhibits. They are making a tallgrass prairie exhibit and want a taxidermied (ethical, legal, yes they have import paperwork) American Badger. They have 5 hrs before funding expires. Help?
I'm a big believer that we can improve the real world while building fictional ones.
On Lore Master's Deck, we're $1,000 away from a stretch goal to plant 3000 trees in critical environments in coastal Madagascar! https://t.co/DMHm9oOnDl
Would love to hit that goal today!
When a study finds that sucralose, at ridiculously high concentrations, is genotoxic in petri dishes, we get headlines, warnings, & outrage!
When roasted meat, in less ridiculously high concentrations, is genotoxic in mice, we get crickets.
Figuratively.

I'm recruiting a postdoc to study tropical shorebird genomics! Experience with whole genomes, phylogenetics, color analyses, and/or historical DNA recommended but not required. Min. salary $56,484. Start date flexible, ideally Spring 2024. Application: https://t.co/grtvqWckv0.
Looking for a PhD position on host-microbe interactions? Consider applying to our international graduate program @MPI_Bio: From Molecules to Organisms!
My lab is currently recruiting a student as part of our funded @DFG_Public grant to work on insect-microbe symbioses!
Today marks the last day for all of National Geographic's staff writers and many of their brilliant editors.
I'm so proud of all the work I've done with these talented people, and know they'll all land on their feet. But it's a sad day for journalism...
