Intrigued by ecoimmunology and have microbiome experience? We have a postdoc position open for our project working on wild house mice - join us to disentangle the contribution of diet, the gut microbiota and the immune system in shaping parasite responses! elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…

New paper out with Oyebola Oyesola @Grahammunology Png Loke and others! We show that genotype x environment effects are a substantial contributor to variation in immune phenotypes in mice – the differences between strains depend strongly on the environment!
