2 tips for requesting a meeting with a busy prof 1) Suggest a specific date/time, in your first email. In the same email, provide many alternative times. Don't just say "When are you available?" Profs suffer from decision fatigue mathemagicalconservation.wordpress.com/2024/03/05/how… - ht Rob Salguero-Gómez 1/5

In reading this thread I realise I dress like Piers Morgan. That's my day over I'm going back to bed

Of course Labour must learn lessons but let's be real: Tories are currently -124 and their talking points are absurd. "Starmer visited Harlow and he lost it" --> "what about where you went?" "Tees Valley held" --> "because Houchen snubbed you"

Amazing. The third one about reading is important: the difference that reading *just one* book a year makes on your writing is staggering - I can tell when students have. It's also fun...!

Come do a post-doc on biodiversity modelling with me, Juliette Unwin and seth goldstein at The Alan Turing Institute ! Drop me an email if you want more details! jobs.ac.uk/job/DHO617/res…

Come and do a post-doc with me, Juliette Unwin and Seth Flaxman at The Alan Turing Institute ! We're building a probabilistic programming community (incl. Bayesian modelling) with this position focusing on biodiversity, but with collaborations with spatial and health modellers jobs.ac.uk/job/DHO617/res…

🚨New Paper Out Now🚨 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gc… In Global Change Biology from myself and @AlbertPhillimo2, Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh. Ongoing seasonal shifts bring with them the serious risk of phenological #asynchrony and trophic #mismatch. But some species are more resilient than others… 1/10 🧵

Time for plant biodiversity class! The first year students at Imperial College London are about to practice what they learned at our Silwood Park campus in central London! (Hopefully with slightly less gormless expressions than the one I'm pulling)

Still time to apply (just!). Come do a three year post doc on biodiversity and data science!

Our preprint on national acoustic monitoring of bird phenology across Norway is out! 🇳🇴 37k+ hrs of real-time data from deep in the arctic ☃️ to the southernmost tip 🌳, comparisons with ebird/BBS, national aSDMs and more! Led brilliantly by Avery Bick doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

In a bit of a COVID throwback, our new paper is out in Scientific Reports! We investigated the impact of environmental conditions on the transmission of different variants during their selective sweeps: doi.org/10.1038/s41598… Will Pearse Ilaria Dorigatti @creswapi Mahika K. Dixit
