So pleased that this paper with co-authors @AoifeLeonard1 @Stevenson_Lab and @Lancaster_LT is out in @InsectMolecBio! A role of epigenetic mechanisms in regulating female reproductive responses to temperature in a pest beetle. https://t.co/qcP0RP2i4K

⏰New Research🚨

We quantified the direct impact of diversionary feeding on capercaillie productivity. We show an increase in the proportion of hen with a brood in DF sites (37% -> 85%) and, as a result, a 131% increase in chicks per hen. Read here: https://t.co/dWgU5crsZV

Exciting PhD opportunity to study supergenes in Scottish ants to understand their role in the dispersion of these insects 🐜🧬 Fully-funded competition based studentship, deadline for application Friday, January 17. @EastbioDTP with @JenniStockan https://t.co/9ZBTPLb66C

New paper: any ecological/evolutionary process that is area-dependent is affected by mountain geometry. We explore the interaction of mountain geometry with rates of altitudinal dispersal, evolutionary diversification (λ), and ecological niche breadth (K). https://t.co/h2Dt29ZQCm

After looking at parental care in kestrels (for longer, but work in progress still), here's a nice study on burying beetles led by @Karendeep_Sidhu . Gotta love creatures who dig carrion!

Functional diversity metrics can perform well with highly incomplete datasets.

Read our new paper, published today in @MethodsEcolEvol: https://t.co/rF4JNu3FAY.

This is what we found…🧵

You will be missed by many!!

[Lesley Lancaster @Lancaster_LT]

Proud supervisor moment!! Huge congratulations to @mccaw_beth on receiving her PhD diploma! Beth has been in the group since her UG honours project and continually impresses with her stellar science and discovery. You will be strongly missed Beth!!

[Beth McCaw @mccaw_beth]

@Lancaster_LT Thank you Lesley, five years of working together and it’s been amazing! Thank you for everything ☺️

[Dr Hollie Marshall @MooHoll]

I have a funded #PhD position available for September 2024 start! It's a multidisciplinary project combining #toxicology, molecular #epigenetics and #bioinformatics! Please share with potential students :) https://t.co/weOg2ISFnS

[Lesley Lancaster @Lancaster_LT]

New paper alert‼️ Interested in understanding the #temperature cues and #time period required for thermal #acclimation in the #wild? Matteo Redana has developed a new method that relies *only* on time series temperature and thermal tolerance data: https://t.co/eOCLWpqCIj

[Lesley Lancaster @Lancaster_LT]

Congratulations @AoifeLeonard1 !!!!

[Paddy Keith @PolarPaddy]

Ever wondered how temperature alters size-based feeding relationships in Southern Ocean mesopelagic fish? Have a read of our new paper in @NatureComms! https://t.co/CHxbSnGzDi
