#AES2025 started with a blast with @brainiants.bsky.social talking about the effect of inbreeding on survivorship and fecundity in European royal families!
Keep them coming @pebblemouse.bsky.social

Escaping desk-bound duties by gallivanting in the Julimar State Forest for the Bioblitz last weekend! 🌧️ Although a bit soggy, it was great to see so many people joining for a chance to turn the forest into a national park!

Taking some time off 🏖️ working on research proposals and presentations by jumping back into #photography 📷 after abandoning it for a while 😆
Rainy days make for great pictures it seems! 🌧️

Had a great run presenting in front of fellow CEB-ists! Onto the real thing tomorrow! 🐜💪🏼
@brainiants.bsky.social discussed her PhD proposal this afternoon where she plans to study variation in intraspecific cognition & its relation to complex behaviors, specifically combat and group foraging in Western Australian ants. 🐜 @mandyridley.bsky.social @notthebestsam.bsky.social #LeighSimmons

Evidence shows that science and scientists remain highly trusted.
But genuine scientific voices are not shouting loud enough over the noise to hold sway

Science’s big problem is a loss of influence, not a loss of trust
Nature - Evidence shows that science and scientists remain highly trusted. But genuine scientific voices are not shouting loud enough over the noise to hold sway.

Another great open day for the CEB and prospective Zoology students! 🌱☀️
Come find us at the Ezone 207, Zoology stall for UWA Open Day today! Drop by to chat about all things animal behaviour, conservation, and evolutionary biology. Come find out what research at CEB is all about!
