Happy to share our new paper in @Trends_Ecol_Evo on the interplay between plasticity and evolution in response to different types of environmental change! @Rob_SalGo @SalGoTeam @iremsepil @sam_gascoigne @OxfordBiology @NSF
authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti… – at East, England
Presenting twice at #ICRS2026 🪸
Mon 7/20 4:45 Rm305
Reproductive trade-offs in Caribbean corals — fragmentation delays reproduction by ~40%, but plasticity compensates.
Tue 7/21 3:30 Rm501
Coral experts redefining conservation priorities under climate change.
Details ↓ – at Auckland, New Zealand
Talk 2 is coral biology meets decision science with Carly Kenkel (@DrCarlsHorn), Joe Arvai (@DecisionLab) + Aitor Marcos.
Come say hi if you’re in Auckland!
@UMPIowls @USC @USCWrigley
Talk 1 started with me, a theoretician who’d never worked on corals, and Carly Kenkel (@DrCarlsHorn) realizing we were asking the same questions about life history trade-offs in totally different systems.

Calling all researchers working on *Genomics of Adaptation to Extreme Thermal Environments*
I'm serving as a guest editor of an upcoming collection in BMC Genomics and am eager to read your submission! More on scope and how to contribute: bit.ly/4kH3PIx @SpringerNature
New paper out from our @OxfordBiology insect work with @Jinlin0v0 @sam_gascoigne @ProfExistence, Ben Ibbott & Dominique Baptiste! We investigated how predictable vs. unpredictable environments shape adaptation through plasticity and evolution. 🪰

I am so excited to share that I will be joining the Marine Science Institue at @UTAustin as an assistant professor in August 2025! 🥳 Our lab will focus on plankton & climate change, from cells to ecosystems 👩🏽🔬 👩🏾💻 Recruiting a PhD student, please help spread the word! 📢
I’m currently applying to professor jobs in ecology and evolution and am mainly using ecoevojobs.net. Are there other lists that you would recommend? I’m open to jobs internationally!

Caribbean reefs are in trouble. But we have a real opportunity to prevent their extinction if we can rise to the challenge. nytimes.com/2024/08/15/opini…

Why do we #exist? Were we inevitable at the birth of the #universe? Or are we just very lucky?

🎧 Are seals fishermen's friends or foes?
35% of the world’s grey seals live in the UK and they get their flippers on many of the fish we like. So, how are seals affecting fishing? Find out from @C_E_Tanner!

New preprint! W/ Jonathan Levine and @Exp_EvoEco. Using a combination of theory and experiment, we ask how competitor-induced phenotypic plasticity changes the interactions between annual plants.

NEW PREPRINT📢: Here, Maja Kajin, @iremsepil, @Rob_SalGo and I use open-access 🪴 IPMs from the @PadrinoDB database to test the ability of four measures of demographic buffering to infer population responses to variable environments☀️🌧️🌡️.

Congratulations @ProfExistence! Can’t wait to read.
Thanks @MichaelJBooks and @RebeccasBooks. So excited to receive these author copies - they look amazing! Can’t wait for publication day on June 13. penguin.co.uk/books/459065/t…

Why is science communication important?
@TheoreticalAnna shares what it means to her! 💜
"Sci com allows us to show the public what it means to be a scientist and to make the wonders of scientific discovery accessible and exciting!"
