Please consider supporting this campaign from @TeamMarmot ! Enjoy cute #marmots from @RMBLGothic while helping sustain one of the world's longest-running field studies (since 1962!). It has also launched generations of researchers, including me @TeamMarmot.

‘OnlyMarms’: Marmots Are on OnlyFans to Raise Money for Research

The researchers track marmot behavior and lineages to understand, for example, how mammals react to environmental changes. @emmettlindner

@kokayart Do you have a website with your illustrations? Specifically European rodents I could use and cite?

[Jamie Winternitz @jcwinternitz]

Excited to share our recent paper! Props to @NadineSchub9rt @HazelJNichols @J_I_Hoffman Mike Cant and all coauthors.

Out in MEC!
Sex matters for immunity: In banded mongooses, higher MHC diversity boosts male fitness but harms females, supporting sexually antagonistic selection on the immune system. #immunogenomics #sexualconflict
