📜 Why are trade-offs often so elusive? Does the distribution of resources in a population affect if life history trade-offs emerge? We tested this experimentally in the Australian field cricket using a re-sampling approach. Now out #OpenAccess in @journal-evo.bsky.social: doi.org/10.1093/evol...

Interested in interactions between females & males on the path to fertilization? We reviewed the evidence for these complex female-male interactions. Thanks to my amazing co-authors for taking me along on this exciting journey (my first review paper)! Out now #OpenAccess

One last adventure for 2024 - a snow hike to the highest peak in the Elsass - the Grand Ballon 🇫🇷. All survived and now its time to welcome 2025 with a Swiss Cheese Fondue! 🇨🇭

We found pre-copulatory but not post-copulatory sexual selection correlated with male-biased SSD. Suggesting that components of sexual selection (but not only sexual selection) drive SSD.

Intro: I am an evolutionary biologist interested in sexual selection & the interaction of evolution & ecology. In my research I combine experiments with meta-analysis. I worked on a variety of different species from flatworms to mice & now fish. For more see: www.researchgate.net/profile/Lenn...
