I compiled a list of 350 #funding opportunities for #postdoctoral research #fellowships: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1J2M_tQgoqV4ivpfEClh9qs9f2KQN2O1G3Jpda2aoHfQ/edit?usp=sharing I realized I should share this again after mentioning it to some folks at the #EFP2026
Absolutely fascinating plenary by @roesslerdaniela.bsky.social about the diversity of sleep in spiders, the challenges of fieldwork, and much more! 🕷️💤 #ISBE2026
ISBE in Torino, Italy- the logo was projected onto the iconic tower Mole Antonelliana last night. A great conference! 🧪 @ISBE2026
If you enjoyed #ISBE2026, the next one to look forward to is #ECBB2026. Registration closes August 17th, so sign up quickly! www.aru.ac.uk/events/confe...

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!
I just received over email the programme that @isbe2026.bsky.social has prepared for the children who will be using the daycare service during the conference! 🤩 BIG thanks to ISBE and the other scientific societies which have come this far to improve inclusivity at their scientific meetings 🙌🏽

The proposed job cuts at the University of Exeter are unnecessary and sudden, and target the Centre for Research in Animal Behaviour. We are grateful to all colleagues from the UK and around the world for your efforts and support. Thank you for standing with us!
Centre for Research in Animal Behaviour (CRAB)@crab-exeter.bsky.social · 3w agoThanks to our colleagues from around the world who signed the Open Letter against redundancies in CRAB. The letter surpassed 700 signatures in just over 1 wk. We hope execs will now see the harm they are doing to the University of Exeter's global reputation. sites.google.com/view/save-cr...
My years at CRAB as a PhD student impacted hugely, and in the most ➕ ways, the researcher I came to be. Even if I changed unis half way through, I’ll be forever grateful to the CRAB community for their support and encouragement. I hope the university realises how important they’re for our field!

Cocaine pollution in rivers and lakes may disrupt behaviour of salmon, study finds
Cocaine pollution in rivers and lakes may disrupt behaviour of salmon, study finds
Fish swam further and dispersed more widely after exposure to environmental levels of drug and main metabolite Traces of cocaine that pollute rivers and lakes may accumulate in the brains of salmon and disrupt their behaviour, according to researchers who warn of unknown consequences for fish populations. Juvenile Atlantic salmon that were artificially exposed to the drug and its main breakdown product swam further and dispersed more widely across a lake, suggesting the substances can affect where the fish go, what they eat and how vulnerable they are to predators.
