she/her ~ PhD candidate at @TheHoffmanLab working on the genomics of sexual trait expression in black grouse

[Rebecca Chen @rebeccas_chen]

Our preprint is out! We predicted deleterious mutations and reveal the genomic mechanisms underlying fitness variation in black grouse, a classic lekking bird. Check it out https://t.co/5GApU9YOJm

This will be my last post on X as I have now migrated to https://t.co/KXKJ9Hqv7W!

Just over a year ago, we hosted the @2023Behaviour congress. My colleagues and I took this opportunity to study inclusivity issues with regard to gender, nationality, LGBTQ+ and other identities. Check out the results in our preprint! https://t.co/uXrYUy9Bec

We thank all our delegates for making #Behaviour2023 such a success!
We would like to get your feedback on the congress though our survey- https://t.co/jgLgeRSppi
Alternatively, you can also simply scan this QR code to go to the survey. Looking forward to your feedback.

Come talk to me about the genetic burden of mutations in black grouse this afternoon at 17! Poster number 32 (downstairs) at #EOU2023

[Rebecca Chen @rebeccas_chen]

Hopefully see you this afternoon at #EOU2023! Also for those not working with epigenetics 🧬

[Bernice Sepers @BerniceSepers]

@rebeccas_chen and I can't wait for our symposium on Avian Ecological Epigenetics at #EOU2023. With talks by @KvanOers, @M_Tangili and Sameli Piirto. Join us today at 15:30 in Kerstins rum, especially if you want to learn something new!

Arrived in Lund for #EOU2023! Found the perfect spot for exercising after my long night train, practising my talk and of course, fika!

[Rebecca Chen @rebeccas_chen]

Still buzzing from how well the #Behaviour2023 was received - from our EDI symposium to the social activities! Now it's time for a quick recharge before taking the train to #EOU2023 🐦‍⬛

[Behaviour 2023 @2023Behaviour]

And that's a wrap! We can't begin to describe the amazing and overwhelmingly fabulous week of science we have all had. Big shoutout to all the organisers, delegates and everyone else who contributed to the succes of #Behaviour2023 #bielefeld

[Joelyn de Lima | joelyndelima.bsky.social @joelyndelima]

Excited to be facilitating a workshop on #IncreasingInclusivity in #HigherEd at #Behaviour2023. Can we change our behaviour and work to enhance inclusion in our institutions & classrooms?
Thanks to @rebeccas_chen, @tubariz786 & @OncuMaraci for prioritising DEI

[Tuba Rizvi @tubariz786]

@rebeccas_chen @OncuMaraci Full house at the DEI Symposium #Behaviour2023 Join us after the coffee break if you haven't already! #EDI #diversity

[Rebecca Chen @rebeccas_chen]

Come join us this afternoon at the #Behaviour2023 to talk about diversity, equity and inclusion! #EDI

[Behaviour 2023 @2023Behaviour]

The first round of registration happened today, we are so excited to see you all tomorrow! #Behaviour2023

[Rebecca Chen @rebeccas_chen]

Three more days!! We can't wait 😍

[Behaviour 2023 @2023Behaviour]

The organising team is ready to welcome you in Bielefeld for the #behaviour2023 conference!

[Rebecca Chen @rebeccas_chen]

@Peter_Th_R Thank you Peter!
