Exciting talk from our collaborator from NHM Oslo Science ! Read more about it here: pnas.org/doi/full/10.10…

My bet is they are here to watch you until you leave William Jones and all!

Pied and collared flycatcher hybrids are sterile - structural variations (SV) may be involved in their differentiation and speciation, particularly translocations and inversions. Thanks for presenting your research Carina Mugal to #SMBE2023 QvarnströmLab


Fascinating insights into the #climatechange, #speciation and #genomics studies on #flycatchers by Anna and her team in the QvarnströmLab!


I am co-supervising a PhD position in collective animal behaviour with James Herbert-Read in Cambrdige and we are currently looking for a good candidate. Apply now! zoo.cam.ac.uk/projects/colle…

Evolution of schooling drives changes in neuroanatomy & motion characteristics across predation contexts in guppies. By Alberto Corral-López out at Nature Communications! nature.com/articles/s4146…. w Alexander Kotrschal Maddi (Maji) James Herbert-Read Wouter van der Bijl Maksym Romenskyy Niclas Kolm and others.

New paper out by lab members @MurielleAlund & Anna Qvarnström. How do human activities impact processes of speciation & despeciation? How can we study speciation in the context of human disturbance & preserve ecosystems in ways that promote divergence & biodiversity? Animal Ecology Uppsala


🦴🧬 Two PhD positions 🧬🦴 We are seeking two PhD students to join Love Dalén's European Research Council (ERC) project using #DeepTime mammalian palaeogenomes to study evolutionary change on a million-year timescale. Deadline: 5 Nov Please spread the word! Apply: su.se/english/about-…


Come join our department at Linnéuniversitetet Linnaeus University. We have a tenure track position in forest ecology with a good chunk of research in the mix. Read more here: lnu.se/en/meet-linnae… Tweeps, you know what to do - please spread the word!



New lab effort with @MurielleAlund Carolina Segami Yishu Zhu, Navaneeth K Menon & William Jones. We find signs of #hybrid inviability in a system where only sterility was documented, but also surprising demographic patterns only detected thanks to long term data! #evolution #speciation


Yishu Zhu presents her PhD's half time seminar Animal Ecology Uppsala, summarizing her thesis' research questions, results & future plans. Let's dive into high resolution #metabolic measurements, #evolution of mito-nuclear incompatibilities & divergent #climate adaptation in #flycatchers.




Huge congratulations to Dr. Ester Martínez Renau @estermartre, who received a scholarship from the Lawski Foundation to start a postdoc position in my group at Animal Ecology Uppsala this autumn! 🎉 Ester will lead the project of flycatcher diet-microbiome associations. 🐦
