Building a solid research profile takes time. We want to support exactly that in #theoreticalbiology and offer *two* long-term postdoc positions. Details and application procedure is here tecoevo.github.io/positions/

The Career Development Fellowship is a four-year, postdoctoral research fellowship, and will initially run as a pilot for researchers from Black heritage backgrounds. Find out more about the scheme here: royalsociety.org/grants-schemes…

The EAMR Forum Seminar Series restarts on the 10th of October at 3pm. We're kicking off with a super interesting talk from Dr Natalie Ring, "Metagenomic sequencing for rapid veterinary diagnostics." Edinburgh Infectious Diseases Till Bachmann Nat Ring McBrien, PhD

Interested in gut microbiomes and social behaviour? 📢Check out this PhD opportunity at Oxford Biology with me, Josh Firth and @Jonathan_PGreen. Please get in touch if interested/have questions! findaphd.com/phds/project/t…

New pre-print! My first research project with Sara Mitri is now live. Interactions underpin our understanding of ecosystems, but can change in hard-to-explain ways. Here, we show that many of these variations can be predicted from underlying mechanisms: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

This beautiful pre-print is a one-man show by Oliver Meacock but has already become central to the way we are thinking about interactions in the lab. His new framework that can help predict how interactions between species change over time and space!

Offering a PhD project through E4 Doctoral Training Partnership on "Predicting and quantifying bacterial population responses to antibiotic treatment" (ed.ac.uk/e4-dtp/how-to-…) - using math models and/or wet-lab experiments

Offering a PhD project at U. Edinburgh Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh through EastBio DTP on "Evolutionary consequences of pulsed mutagenesis in bacteria" using mathematical modelling/simulations. ed.ac.uk/biology/study-…

Are you interested in gaining mechanistic insights on major outstanding ecological and evolutionary questions? 🌍 Then join the #EMBOEvoEco Workshop that will highlight the latest technological advances and focus on biodiversity. 📜Submit abstract by 10 July

Upcoming application deadline for this PhD programme in infectious diseases at The University of Edinburgh! Myself and many fantastic colleagues Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh are potential supervisors.

On my way home from #MEEhubs2024. Feeling exhausted, proud, and privileged to haved worked with amazing colleagues, amongst many most closely with Sara Mitri, Elisa Granato and Erik Bakkeren. Hopefully the next MEEhubs can have (even) more hubs across the globe!

Elated that #MEEhubs2024 was a huge success! I hope that others keep this experiment in mind when planning future conferences. A great pleasure to work closely with Elisa Granato Wolfram Moebius and Sara Mitri, but thanks to all hub organizers, sponsors and volunteers!

Such an amazing effort from the organisers of the first #MEEhubs2024 . Feeling privileged that I got to take part in this venture!
