In @nature, Delavaux et al., 2024 suggest that species richness on oceanic islands is reduced by mutualism rates on the mainland. In arxiv.org/abs/2411.15105, Maximilian Pichler and I had another look at this question and conclude that this effect is likely a statistical artefact.

Last post on Twitter with the last first-author scientific paper I will publish as a researcher. This took too many years from idea to publication but I am happy that even after stopping doing scientific research this paper managed to get done nature.com/articles/s4146โ€ฆ

What started as a student side project became a big scientific endeavor - together with Dr. Stacey D. Smith, Leah Maier and Miranda Sinnott-Armstrong, we show that the global distribution of #flower and #fruit colors is linked to temperature and UV-B - doi.org/10.1002/ajb2.7โ€ฆ
