Our new work (bit.ly/4nlB0RU) demonstrates how environmental cue reliability can drive the evolution of adaptive maternal effect plasticity. We evolved nematodes in random environments and populations receiving a reliable cue adapted to an otherwise unpredictable environment.

There is still time to register for the coziest, chat by the fire with your colleagues sort of EcoEvo conference, the @asn-amnat.bsky.social meeting in Asilomar, California. The meeting is Jan 3-6, 2025, and you still have a few weeks (until Dec 1) to get your abstracts in!

It is 4 pm pacific time, which means the cats have been eagerly awaiting the closing of the refrigerator signaling the food bowls are about to be revealed.

Happy to be in Montreal for #Evol2024 !
Stop by the @evo-journal.bluesky.social booth during the Monday afternoon coffee break to say hi or talk about the Evolution journal (I’m an AE).
And my talk is Tuesday morning - great symposium on evolutionary rescue!

I am OVER THE MOON that our paper is out at Am Nat today!
We find phylogeny & biogeographic contingency shape functional diversity in cichlid radiations.
It's my first as co-first author, & Chris Martinez was an A+ co-lead. We had an amazing team-I am so proud of this work!

Prime Day, Schmime Day. Hey, listen, indie bookstores are out there being awesome every day. And they tend to ship directly to you, even if you're not local to the store. They're where the books live! And booksellers are book wizards! Bonafide bibliomancers fast with the recommendations.
