Excited to share that I’m starting a research group at MPI for Biology Tübingen — and we’re recruiting PhD students!

We are offering two fully funded PhD positions on sex determination and development in Hymenoptera 🐜🐝.

Please share with prospective students who might be interested.
🚀 Ready to explore life science research at the highest level? Then apply for a fully-funded biology #PhD position at the Max Planck Institute for Biology @mpi-bio-fml.bsky.social and Friedrich Miescher Laboratory!

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
The evolution of local adaptation in long-lived species
Abstract. Many species experience heterogeneous environments and adapt genetically to local conditions. The extent of such local adaptation depends on a ba
