Male fertility may be the chink in the armor against climate change: Our new study in Nature Communications suggests that the loss of male fertility at high temperatures -which occurs at temperatures much lower than their CTmax -may be a better predictor of climate change vulnerability

Happy to share the second chapter of my thesis𤩠Looking at physiological pathways contributing to variation in nutritional plasticity across populations! authors.elsevier.com/a/1d~BZ52w-x8fV Big thank you @ChristenMirth and Carla Sgrò for all your help and supervisionš School of Biological Sciences, Monash


#AUSEVO2021 Julian Beaman Flinders University and collabs looked into thermal adaptation in birds, particularly important for seabirds like Arctic auks. Adaptation occurs freq. perhaps due to past changing climates.


#AUSEVO2021 Brooke Zanco School of Biological Sciences, Monash explains how protein & carbohydrate micronutrients are important for increased reproduction and lifespans piperlab.org


Amazing talk about phenotypic plasticity and climate change by Avishikta Chakraborty at #AUSEVO2021




What happens if you manipulate the major nutritional determinant of lifespan (sterols) independently of the major nutritional determinant of egg production? Brooke Zanco et al found mothers live longer and lay more eggs on high sterol diets. reader.elsevier.com/reader/sd/pii/⦠@mattpiperlab


Todayās my last day at School of Biological Sciences, Monash before I head off to UCL Centre for Biodiversity & Environment Research for my first postdoc thanks to EMBO š„² Iām so grateful to have had the most phenomenal supervisors and to have been a part of the Piper, Mirth and Sgro labs. I donāt know who will pose for my ridiculous photos now


We're looking for a PhD student to join us on an exciting project funded by Australian Research Council looking into the maternal gut #microbiome and the impact it has on the offspring at Monash University School of Biological Sciences, Monash Details at findaphd.com/phds/projectdeā¦
