I'm an evolutionary biologist at the Uppsala University interested in sex-specific selection, sexual conflict, sex chromosomes and life history evolution.

Job alert: #Postdoc on the repeatability of evolution and historical contingencies in thermal adaptation of an insect pest species. Job is based at Uppsala U (Sweden), supervised by @DBergerBiol and me. Ad is here: https://t.co/fvOvb2FlEG

Paper alert: Experimental life history evolution results in sex-specific evolution of gene Expression in seed beetles https://t.co/GQ3Id3Fiau Big thanks to all who contributed to this work!

@karlgrieshop @uniofeastanglia @biouea @NorwichResearch @AlexeiMaklakov @SimoneImmler @alperakay_ @PhilipLeftwich Fantastic news, congratulations!

@MartynaZwoinska @Phi_Kaufmann @axel_wiberg Can't offer more pay or less work but how about a fika tomorrow 😅🫶

[Elina Immonen @e_immonen]

@AnneMarie_DC Thanks a lot ☺️

[Elina Immonen @e_immonen]

Congratulations Dr @Phi_Kaufmann!!! Philipp did a wonderful job defending his thesis yesterday on the evolution of sexual dimorphism, with Tim Connallon as the opponent.

[Elina Immonen @e_immonen]

Cheers to my first student :)

[PLOS Biology @PLOSBiology]

Filip Ruzicka, @LukeHolman_Evo & Tim Connallon use data from @uk_biobank to show that #HumanGenomes carry signatures of sex-differential & #SexuallyAntagonistic selection; these signatures affect mortality, reproduction & overall fitness #PLOSBiology https://t.co/TLCcEkeDrT

What the actual F???? 🤯

[Elina Immonen @e_immonen]

Interested in sexual conflicts, size dimorphism, gene expression or sex chromosome evolution? Go hear the talks from my group: Axel @axel_wiberg in SO1 tomorrow Wed at 11.00 and Philipp @Phi_Kaufmann in SO2 on Thu at 12.00. See also Martyna's @MartynaZwoinska poster 387!

Thrilled to announce today the publication of our paper on “promoting scientific literacy in evolution through citizen science” in the #ProcB @RSocPublishing . The paper is available #OpenAccess at https://t.co/nRvgNjdNiI

Hot out of the press! Years of work to show how concerted evolution of metabolic rate, economics of mating, ecology, and pace of life plays out across 12 seed beetle species | PNAS https://t.co/j03GuA9CqI

Really cool paper by my former office mate Agnese Viluma who reconstructed the full haplotypes from the unsequenced founders of the Scandinavian wolf population! https://t.co/wyAlsos387

Ohikiitävä ilo taivaalla on loputon suru meressä.

Aallot tuovat ympäri vuoden ilotulitemuoviroskaa Hankoniemelle. Kerään näitä loputtomasti rannoiltamme. Huudan Itämeren puolesta, jotta saisimme tämän älyttömyyden loppumaan!
