Finally published my master’s work in Global Ecology and Biogeography! 🦋🌎Huge thanks to all coauthors for their patience and support during this project. If you’re interested in butterflies/mimicry/biogeography, or just curious, you can read it here: https://t.co/BkSCJ11iKH
Help students attend the 2026 IUSSI conference in Freiburg, Germany! 🐝 Our goal is to support at least 4 students. Let's raise more than $10,000 and show our support for students in our community! 🐝 PLEASE donate if you can! Scan this QR code, or click the link in the thread 🐝
We are delighted to host the Biology25 conference @UNIL on 13-14 February, 2025. We are also bringing four engaging Satellite Events on February 12th.
📢Registration and abstract submission are now open!
Spread the word! #Biology25

Seeing Ant Course friends in Lausanne brought back memories from the course. Here is one of my favourite species from then, a Colobostruma. Thanks Doug Booher @antmuseum for showing me a colony!
Just had my first conference talk today! I presented my work on ant biogeography 🐜 at #iussi2024
Great times here in Lausanne with so many inspiring people!

➡️ Jusqu'au 30 juin
🔍 Differentiating fly species by eye, especially their larvae, is a tough task.
🧠 But on a temperature gradient, we discovered distinct behaviours.
🏔️ These temperature preference shifts align with their ecologies!

We are happy to announce that our paper is finally out in @NatureComms 🎉. It is about ant biogeography and how non-native ants species impacts biogeographic boundaries and are homogenizing ant species assemblages. Come and have a look here 👉https://t.co/2buwdWg6Te

In a prospective study, an autism screening app administered using a tablet computer to young children showed high diagnostic accuracy and may facilitate a scalable approach to autism screening. @GeriDawson

Tristan is a PhD student in Bertelsmeier’s group at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland. He has a broad interest in insect ecology with a preference for ants. He is working on the ecology and evolution of color in ants at different scales from interspecific variation.
Plenary Marianne Elias spoke about the stunning glasswing butterflies and mimicry rings in Heliconiinae and Ithomiini butterflies. Glasswings are transparent thanks to nanostructure types and densities, and transparency🪟 might help them hide better from predators🐦⬛ #BoB2023
