🚨New paper alert! We explore the evolutionary processes of Neotropical grasses by utilizing morphological occupancy of pollen grains over last 23 million years. Check it out here to learn the new insights into grass diversification in tropics and beyond!

I was delighted to present my completed PhD project at XV IOPC/ XI IOPC in Prague. I gave an oral presentation on how grasses developed through time in South America and around the globe. It was wonderful to see many old friends and make new connections there :)

It's been a few months, but yes, this is my PhD thesis🥰! Thanks for posting @palaeolim

Hyperdiverse #Pleistocene fossil record first documented in #FrenchGuiana by Pierre-Olivier Antoine @umontpellier and team. An amazing insight into the response of flora and fauna to two climate extremes.

@Umba_moxos @CarinaHoorn @ELD_IBED_UvA @IBED_UvA @willem_foram @crystalmcmic @Timmedonders Thank you!☺️☺️

[Caixia Wei @CaixiaWei]

I am thrilled to announce that I have officially obtained my PhD degree in (Paleo-)Ecology from University of Amsterdam! I sincerely express my thanks to my respected promoters, highly esteemed opponents, as well as to all who have honoured this ceremony with their presence 🎓

[Caixia Wei @CaixiaWei]

@CarinaHoorn @palaeolim @limi_mao @crystalmcmic @willem_foram Following the defense, a delightful reception and dinner were hosted, where I was overwhelmed with an abundance of hugs, kisses, heartfelt wishes, and thoughtful gifts. The warmth and support from everyone made it an unforgettable celebration.

[Caixia Wei @CaixiaWei]

@CarinaHoorn @palaeolim @limi_mao I am also deeply grateful for the support from my highly esteemed opponents: Dr. T.H. (Timme) Donders, Prof. dr. Hermann Behling, Prof. dr. Henry Hooghiemstra, Dr. @crystalmcmic, Prof. dr. @willem_foram, as well as all those who graced my defense ceremony with their presence.

Big news- the McFadden Lab is launching in London! 🎉

I've accepted a permanent lectureship in computational ecology at Queen Mary University of London #NewPI

I will also help to build the new Artificial Intelligence in the Biosciences MSc program: https://t.co/myUAX77vWJ

I am delighted to share our latest paper on #grass #pollen #ornamentation is diversity across the #phylogeny in South America and globally. Please find out how it can (and cannot) be used in #palaeoecology: https://t.co/dGnDMuOzbt
