New study from @michellebeyer.bsky.social published in Animal Behaviour: Silk of females performing maternal care elicits reduced courtship responses in male spiders.

October kickoff meeting! Our FIS project *TL-REP Thermal limits to reproduction as predictors for population vulnerability to climate warming* is ready to start with a team of talented and enthusiastic researchers!

We had a fun a productive time in #Turin 🇮🇹 with @mherberstein.bsky.social and @thecowbirdlab.bsky.social (that gave a terrific talk-thanks Mark!) catching up the LOC’s planning of #ISBE26!!!

Spent the year doing what we love the most and won’t stop in 2025! We’ll be busy prepping to host #ISBE2026 in Turin and getting started with an exciting #FIS funded project on thermal reproduction of field crickets. Watch out - phd and postdoc positions opening soon!
