Network, we are looking for PhD students and Postdocs on evolutionary and ecological genomics in 2025/2026 Join diverse and welcoming lab at @UCBerkeley @HHMINEWS! moilab.science/team/join-us Team members are giving talks at Evolution/GRC EEG/SMBE/ASPB this summer, reach out!
Don’t miss @liti_nice presenting “Continental-scale 🌍 variation of Saccharomyces yeasts” 🌳 on Thursday, 24 July at 12:45 PM at #ICYGMB32 in Paris 🇫🇷! @ircaninstitute @CNRS
We hosted illustrious international guest for our workshop on yeast genomics and evolution in Sweden! Thanks to @FcocubillosR @pablovilla81 and Gilles Fischer for sciencing, kayaking, walking, talking, beer tasting, and just generally making science as fun as it can be!




The latest story from the @haploteam highlights the phenotypic impact of acquired subgenomes in allopolyploids, through the lens of 1,060 Brettanomyces bruxellensis genomes. Nice collaboration with @univbordeaux @CNRSbiologie @unistra @InstUnivFr nature.com/articles/s4146…
I can't imagine a better lab for a postdoc 👇🏻
Job alert! We have a postdoc position available in the Stelkens Lab at Stockholm University. Join us and apply experimental evolution and comparative genomics in the model system yeast to test for parallel climate adaptation. #Evolution #yeast #genomics
Great opportunity to do a postdoc in a great lab, with an awesome supervisor on an exremely interesting topic. Highly recommend 👇

🚨🚨 ATTENTION ATENCIÓN! Time is running out to submit your Abstract and request Scholarship for our Satellite SMBE Meeting in Patagonia. Deadline: 27/06/25 Abstract Submission Deadline: 30/06/25 play.4id.science/smbe025/login
Just out in PNAS! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… "The evolution of thermal performance curves in response to rising temperatures across the model genus yeast". Beautiful work using experimental evolution to forecast climate impacts on biodiversity by Jennifer Molinet @JenniferMolinet

Now out in @NatureEcoEvo ! Life (and adaptation to warming) is a story of chance and history, but also... epistasis... Congrats to former grad student @DeNovoRego and ace collaborator @DBergerBiol for their brilliance and endurance and thanks to Zach Blount for a great commentary
Finally out - Our new study on predicting adaptation to climate warming! nature.com/articles/s4155… We find that there are many genomic routes to heat-adaptation, but this can also make genomic data of limited value for prediction. A tour de force by @DeNovoRego, with @StelkensLab.
One of our main sponsors, the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, has written a nice article about our work. Yay to fundamental research! @KAWstiftelsen kaw.wallenberg.org/en/research/wi…
Only 1 more week to apply for this postdoc position on the genomics of parallel climate adaptation in yeast! Link to application portal is in the post below. Please share widely! 🧪🌳🧬🍄
And now, we also have a 2-year postdoc position in the Stelkens Lab! 🧪 If you are interested in parallel evolution, genomics, yeast, and climate adaptation, this could be for you! Please apply through U Stockholm's job platform here: su.varbi.com/en/what:job/jo…
Dates are now confirmed for the 2025 SMBE Satellite Meeting in Chile: Molecular Mechanisms of Adaptation and Experimental Evolution. Join us in Puerto Varas for the latest advances in evolutionary biology. Link: smbechile2025.cl 📅: 6-8 October 2025 📝 Deadline: July 31
