Happy to have contributed to this fun study by Maaike J. Bierenbroodspot Jan de Vries and other cool people

In case (like me) you missed the Irish Pollinator Research Network meeting, here's the low-down on what went down! Some really cool science. campusbuzz.blog/2024/01/22/pol…

A week in the life of K29, an adult Herring gull we tagged on University College Dublin in summer 2023, that's still going strong in the new year. The maps shows points from the last week of January. Sch. Biol. & Env. Sc @scienceirel

PLs RT! Interested in #honey #bee health? Come do a #PhD Sch. Biol. & Env. Sc UCD Earth Institute on 'Protecting Irish #bees through field trials and genomics-informed strategies' - with me Darren O'Connell Cristina Botías Nicholas Brereton Dara Stanley et al. #pathogens #PhDposition Details below

Applications due today for #PhD position in #honey #bee health!

“Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of evolution.” Dobzhansky, 1973. “Nothing in evolution makes sense except in the light of development.” Lala et al, 2024. Lala et al’s Evolution Evolving will be published later this year #evolution #evodevo #biology

Interested in plant insect coevolution? Life history evolution? Comparative genomics and functional validation? Contact me, I’m interested in hosting postdocs that can use butterflies in novel ways.

⚠️PhD position in pollinator genomics 🦋🐝🧬in my group! Join us at Centre for Palaeogenetics & Department of Zoology to do a PhD in conservation genomics of insect pollinators with a focus on recovering DNA from specimens in museum collections 🏦🔬 Info & applications 👉su.se/english/about-… RT🙏

Great to see our new paper out in the Journal of Insect Physiology! In it we show that in a controlled glasshouse experiment, honey #bees show an increase in activity and pertebation to colony conditions at higher #temperatures #pollinators #pollinator sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Check out our new UCD Earth Institute blog! We talk about our recent paper, where we showed increasing temperatures impacted honey #bee behaviour and colony conditions in a glasshouse experiment #pollination #pollinator #temperature Julia Jones ucd.ie/earth/newseven… 1/2

We are looking to appoint Lecturers/Assistant Professors in Genetics & Evol. Biol.(Ref: 017289), Cell & Mol. Biol. (Ref: 017299), Genetic Engineering and Plant Biol. (Ref: 017288), and a Teaching Fellow in Biol. and Env. Sci. (Ref: 017285). Apply via ucd.ie/workatucd/jobs/

Absolutely delighted to be one of the projects selected for funding by the @scienceirel We are now Research Ireland Pathway Programme! Our team Sch. Biol. & Env. Sc will be using genomic tools to understand adaptation in solitary bees! Little known but important wild pollinators sfi.ie/research-news/…
