Pre-holiday preprint! We experimentally manipulated resource availability in a wild rodent population and found pervasive effects on host biology and diverse effects across the parasite community in a naturally co-infected host. Check it out! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Interested in how life history may shape the gut microbiome of a wild mammal? Keen on getting to work with an iconic long-term study system in Scotland? Check out this PhD opportunity with me, Josephine Pemberton and @gfalbery.bsky.social Reach out to chat more! www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Delighted to have this preprint out! It's been a long time in the works, involved a lot of fun discussion, and was a wonderful collaboration with Colin & Cecilia to get it from conception to final form.

New preprint! 🥳🎉 We looked at viral coinfection patterns at the largest scale ever in wildlife. We found a strong association among CoVs, PMVs, and influenza A, and higher coinfection rates in wildlife trade; plus, evidence that bats accumulate persistent infections. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Celebrating the publication of our big collaborative spatial-social meta-analysis of density-dependent transmission effects, out now in Nature Eco Evo! doi.org/10.1038/s415... (or rdcu.be/eD6eB)

We are excited to announce a support scheme for ECRs wishing to attend ESEB 2025 and participate in the WAME-sponsored symposium “Contribution of the microbiome to host adaptation and plasticity” See here for more details and please share! www.wamestn.com/eseb-2025

Re-upping before the holiday lull - please do contact if interested and share! www.findaphd.com/phds/project...
