@mikejackson1948 @astacus @mikejackson Yes, Jim was my PhD supervisor. He was mostly studying mites while I was studying mice - confused everyone!

@b6mup, @astacus, @MBE_liv, @c4pr_liv, @catffranco, @Jonathan_PGreen, @livuninews, @LivUni_IVES, @LivUniISMIB report that females pay greater energetic costs when rearing offspring with an unrelated partner. https://t.co/6DjKzQaBm4

[Jane Hurst @b6mup]

Revealed more skewed milk investment when cooperating partners are sisters, but sisters pay lower energetic costs than unrelated partners to produce the same wgt of pups, and pups gain better access to non-maternal milk. Great when a plan all comes together! @LivUni @LivUni_IVES

[Jane Hurst @b6mup]

Excited that our paper tracking milk investment when females rear pups together in communal nests now out!
A neat dual tracer approach devised by @astacus @CaTFFranco allowed @Jonathan_PGreen @AmandaD459 @MBE_liv to track milk from each partner female into each pup.
