Fingers crossed for me 😂 and for everyone applying. Nice that @sciencecharles.bsky.social gives this opportunity to restart the carrier after the (parental) break.
I’m very surprised that the frequently discussed topic of repeated adaptation through the same molecular pathways hadn’t been summarised in a review before. But that has now changed, and that’s a good thing. Thank you @siribirkeland.bsky.social www.cell.com/trends/genet...
Pathway-level convergence: an underexplored aspect of convergent evolution
The extent to which evolution is repeatable at the genetic level remains a central question in biology. Convergent adaptations can arise through mutations in homologous genes, changes in different gen...

Can you guess which group this fascinating plant belongs to? Its species name is ‘medusa,’ which I think is quite fitting.
Look at this rainbow hematite 🌈 🪨! The collection of minerals of the National Museum in Prague is just amazing. We always spend more time there than I expect.
Alpine vegetation of Georgia is just incredible ❤️ 🌸
Proud that this is my mom ❤️

A high-resolution two-step evolution experiment in yeast reveals a shift from pleiotropic to modular adaptation
Evolution is expected to involve mutations that are small and modular in effect, but recent findings suggest that mutations early in an adaptive process can have strong and pleiotropic effects. This s...

If Filip weren’t too lazy to set up Bluesky, he could have reposted this himself :D. Still, I’m proud of him and Patrick Mairmans for this piece of work.
Genome doubling reshapes where plants thrive—but not in predictable ways. A new study led by Filip Kolář shows #polyploidy often shifts ecological niches, yet with no consistent pattern. Fascinating insight into #plant #evolution. 🌿 🔗 www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
