I am incredibly proud to finally see this chapter of my dissertation published! Thank you to PLOS Biology, great editors and 4 amazing reviewers. We assessed the ribozyme fitness landscape at the intersection of two genotype networks! journals.plos.org/plosbiology/ar…



Our yeast art made it on the front cover of Molecular Biology and Evolution! Pretty pretty! academic.oup.com/mbe/article/37… Ale D. Department of Zoology



Our new paper on experimental evolution of reconstructed ancestral proteins: Historical contingency is the dominant factor in evolution of protein sequence variation, even under strong selection. Out today in eLife - the journal. 1/ elifesciences.org/articles/67336


I wrote a "behind the paper" blog of our latest paper in NatureEcoEvo. In there you'll find a bit of history and a few cartoon versions of me and my coauthors :3 #fungi #Podospora #speciation ecoevocommunity.nature.com/posts/when-the…


Congratulations to @CiaranGilchrist from Stelkens Lab on successfully nailing his thesis titled "Hopeful monsters: The role of hybrids in adaptation". His defence will be on the 14th of October!


Our new #butterfly🦋 #evolution paper is finally out in Science Advances. "Evidence for a single, ancient origin of a genus-wide alternative life history strategy": science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… #Butterflies🦋 #Color #AncientPolymorphisms #introgression #CRISPR🧵🧵🧵

What started as a hobby project turned into a paper! Proud to share my first single author work in Methods in Ecology and Evolution about how to interpolate temperature using classic signal processing concepts. Will write a short thread at some point! #Ecology #ThermalEcology #Microclimate


Who are fittest:☀️‘summer specialists’ that maximize growth season gains, or❄️‘winter specialists’ that minimize overwintering risk? We investigated this in temperate #lepidoptera, now out in Nature Communications Both work but cause different pop. dynamics. 🧵⬇️ doi.org/10.1038/s41467…
