Claudia Bank's (@cbank.bsky.social) research group, Theoretical Ecology and Evolution (THEE) is now on Bluesky! I posted a thread showing some of the group's publications from 2025 to get the account going. Please consider following the group for updates related to ecology and evolution 😀
🧬 Our 2025 review is here!
A (very belated) Happy New Year from the THEE group! From transcription factor evolution to microbiomes, epistasis, biodiversity, and antimicrobial resistance — here’s a thread highlighting our group’s contributions to research in 2025 👇

A new (and improved) version of the fantastic BES’s reproducible code guide is now live.
Seriously amazing resource for those wanting to produce code that enables reproducible research.
Featuring some SORTEE members and also code review!!

It's in print! My opinionated dive into the definition of "coevolution" is officially out in the December issue of @journal-evo.bsky.social

Don't ask “when is it coevolution?”—ask “how?”
Abstract. Coevolution has come to be widely understood as specific, simultaneous, reciprocal adaptation by pairs of interacting species. This strict-sense

Looking forward to this! A non-Elsevier alternative to Theoretical Population Biology / Journal of Theoretical Biology
Population Biology Modeling & Theory (PBMT) is a peer-reviewed journal reporting advances in modeling and theory within population biology. Its scope spans demography, ecology, epidemiology, evolutionary biology, population genetics, and phylogenetics. PBMT will be online soon.

My paper with @schmidmax.bsky.social and @charlesmullon.bsky.social is out in @journal-evo.bsky.social 🌟 doi.org/10.1093/evol... 🌟 We show how the effect of longevity on local adaptation, rather than being unidirectional, depends on the life cycle and how frequent selection is relative to dispersal
