We are looking for a PhD student in ecological complexity at @UvA_Amsterdam vacatures.uva.nl/UvA/job/PhD-Po…
Some fun Friday news! This is my first official week back at the University of Edinburgh @SBSatEd as a @royalsociety University Research Fellow. My group will be working on wild animal microbiomes in the context of global change and I am beyond excited for this new chapter.
Mixing paleoecology and modern ecological theory for insights into major climate driven changes to biodiversity in earth's history. Awesome collaboration and more to come!
Paper in @NatureComms showing extinction cascades were important during a Jurassic extinction event & that it took >7myrs for community structure to recover. nature.com/articles/s4146… @beckerhopper @JackOliverShaw @KMZarzyczny @FossilsH @PalaeoLeeds @EEB_Sheffield @sfiscience
I'm looking for a 3-year postdoc to reconstruct food webs from environmental DNA and traditional approaches with fieldwork in Icelandic streams, Italian coastal lagoons, and the Celtic Sea. Part of a @LeverhulmeTrust project with @stefanako71. Apply here: vacancies.essex.ac.uk/tlive_webrecru…
In a new perspective in MEE, we suggest that the structural issues in academia introduce risks to LLM use. Particularly, the pressure to publish: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
Last few days to consider & apply for this 2-year Post Doc addressing the triple planetary crisis of biodiversity, climate change and chemical pollution. If you are into computational ecology/modelling/modeling, please consider applying! 14 Aug Deadline. jobs.ac.uk/job/DIU154/res…
This study is the first of its kind to demonstrate that coordinated provisioning is associated with increased offspring recruitment, and joins a short list demonstrating that offspring survival to fledging correlates with coordination.
Excited to announce Dr Arley Muth as our newest Editor-in-Chief, joining @AllenJMoore, @beckerhopper & @DrDisturbance on our team. Welcome Arley! buff.ly/4f0sjct
👀Just a friendly reminder that we've got a post-doc position open here at Sheffield, UK investigating multiple chemical stressors on biodiversity. If you're into computational ecology & biodiversity, check out the advert and consider applying! 👀 jobs.ac.uk/job/DIU154/res…
Super excited to have received @LeverhulmeTrust funding with @stefanako71 to explore how environmental DNA analysis can turbo-boost the reconstruction of aquatic food webs across habitat types and over multiple time scales. Watch this space for 2 x 3-year post doc opportunities.
PDRA Available: I’ve got a 2 year PDRA available in computational ecology. You’ll need skills modelling food webs (e.g. with R, python, C or Julia) & an interest in the triple planetary crisis of biodiversity loss, climate change & chemical pollution: jobs.ac.uk/job/DIU154/res…
