Come and work with us (the Kokkonuts) as a postdoc! Our research within (theory-evo-eco) is broad; let's say it's implicitly defined by the journal club papers we read. Which is why the application process includes a JC-related task, I hope it'll be a fun one for you! www.evoldir.net/brian/evoldi...

Time for you to plan how you will shape our next SMBE meeting in Quebec!

Hey @isbe2026.bsky.social - I’ll be in Turin from tomorrow, and looking to recruit PhD student and postdoc to my lab in Stockholm soon… anyone interested in parasites, sexual selection, transgen effects, fish (guppy) tracking - let’s meet up!

Check out this amazing special issue in @avianbiology.bsky.social edited by @rebeccachen.bsky.social Bernice Sepers Caroline Isakson and myself. A beautiful set op papers showcasing the recent status of avian studies on epigenetic mechanisms. Thanks to all contributors and @toblermichi.bsky.social

I am #hiring! In my group 📍Universität Zürich | University of Zurich & Eawag I have #two open #Postdoc #Positions, with application deadlines in early August 2026. 🧬 🦐 🐠🌐🌍 Here a quick reminder & 🧵with all details, thanks for 🔄 redistributing to interested candidates.

Atlantic Salmon in Spain is on the verge of extinction, with only 106 specimens caught in Asturias and THREE in Cantabria.

1/4 🔴 Se cierra la temporada del salmón y se confirman los peores pronósticos. 106 salmones capturados en Asturias (mínimo histórico) y 3 en Cantabria. Las cifras de 2026 vuelven a reflejar el grave declive que sufren las poblaciones de salmón atlántico en España. #SalmónAtlántico #SalmoSalar

Mental note for next time: write "DL: 7 August". It seems some potential north American applicants think the deadline has passed, but in Europe, 7.8 = deadline in 3 weeks 😅, so there is still time to apply!

I think I was too vague & nobody engaged, so let me ask more directly: any ecologists & evolutionary biologists out there who pilot their studies? If so, could you briefly share what kind of piloting you do? 🙏🙏🙏

Alfredo Sánchez-Tójar@asanchez-tojar.bsky.social · 2mo ago

In many fields, pilot studies are critical for methods & tool development & refinement, yet are often overlooked & rarely reported Any ecologists & evolutionary biologists with a special interest and experience in piloting in ecology & evolution: suggested reading, previous research, etc...?

Very relevant for people involved in long-term studies. Always worried about self-plagiarism in describing study area and basic procedures - apparently it's kosher. 🧪

Andrea Fuller@andreafuller.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Can you recycle your own previously published text? While COPE guidelines exist, many authors are unaware of them, so we address this issue in a new editorial: academic.oup.com/conphys/arti...

Researchers in #EvolutionaryBiology & #Ecology wanting to do the right thing? @nicolasgaltier.bsky.social at #SMBE2026 talking about DAFNEE, a database of >600 #ecoevo #evoeco academia-friendly journals for "responsible publishing" - @plos.org seems to do OK here...!

There is the DAFNEE database and there is also “Where to publish”, a manually curated database in life sciences #SMBE2026
