We don't know much about bee parasitism. Paulo explored this uncharted world in his thesis. In his 1st PhD article (my 1st as last 🥲). We investigate expression differences between host & parasite during reproduction. Teaser: TEs might be involved!

@HernaniFMO Faça pfv e aproveita e divulga pro @CNPq_Oficial pq pesquisadores fora do Brasil desanimam de voltar. O sistema de concurso é super arcaico em relação a outros países, exige investimento financeiro altíssimo do candidato e 80-90% das vezes é roubado. Não existe fiscalização.
When we talk about global oligarchy this is what we are talking about: Today, the top 1% throughout the world own more wealth than the bottom 95% of humanity combined. Children go hungry. Billionaires buy yachts and take joyrides on rocket ships. Change must come.
Two years ago I was doing fieldwork working with this amazing model system, my Twitter post went viral! Today, the paper on nest architecture in Scaptotrigona depilis is out in @CurrentBiology! You can download the full paper here https://t.co/lvFOer4EX4
Our new paper is out today in @Nature , showing that bumblebees possess the cognitive capacity for some of the key ingredients of cumulative culture, previously though to be unique to humans

@nat2bee, @Cin_Oi and I are organising the symposium
"Genetics & Genomics in Ecology and Evolution of Social Insects (section 17)". We would be delighted to receive your abstracts for talk or poster presentations!
Join us at EuroIUSSI 2024 in Lausanne! @Selfishmeme and I are organizing a symposium exploring the genomic determinants of caste, sex, and social organization in eusocial insects. #EuroIUSSI#lausanne#Genomics 🐜🧬🔬
We have recently uploaded on NCBI a high quality stingless bee reference genome. Besides describing this assembly, in the preprint we compare it with other corbiculate, showing syntenies, gene changes, and exploring the evolution of venom genes.
We are looking forward to having a diverse set of speakers, from multiple career stages, nationalities, and gender balanced. So, all applications are very welcome! Help us to build a very enriching symposium! #ICE2024#SocialInsectsGenomics#Kyoto
