Having spent nearly 14 years in Scandinavia, I have now been back in Brazil for over six months. The readaptation has been challenging indeed, but it has also been rewarding. Last week, I taught an introductory workshop on genomic analyses together with four other Brazilian colleagues.

This is Zeus. He isn't mean or anything. Just thinks more people should be aware of his existence. 13/10 (TT: j90peo)

An Italian Sparrow in the Netherlands turns out to be a House Sparrow

Genomic analyses confirm that we are dealing with a weird House Sparrow.

My less-than-a-year computer died on me yesterday out of nowhere 😵 🥲 What else can I do other than bury myself in this book?

Back in 2011, I left my Alma Mater to pursue a postgraduate education in a remote Nordic country. Today, the schedule for a mandatory course of its postgraduate program in Psychobiology hangs on my fridge. I hope my auditing this course will be a herald of a new relationship between myself and UFRN.

After almost 14 academic years in Scandinavia, I am glad to be back in Natal ☀️ Although I am still waiting for the outcome of a FAPESP Young Investigator Grant application, I met with some of my would-be collaborators last Thursday and was introduced to the Brain Institute at my alma mater — UFRN.

2º Evento Jovens Pesquisadores reunirá algumas das principais lideranças da ciência brasileira e contará com painéis interativos e debates. Na próxima quinta-feira, dia 6 de novembro, das 14h às 17h, no auditório da #FAPESP, em São Paulo. fapesp.br/17861/

This is Sigourney Weaver and Alice. Sigourney Weaver is hard at work digging a hole, and Alice has accepted her very avoidable fate. 13/10 for both

This is one more article coming from my time in the beloved Copenhagen 🇩🇰 This work was beautifully led by @dianaclobo.bsky.social, and I am thrilled to see it published!

A few years ago, we started asking if the adaptation of Iberian wolves to anthropogenic landscapes could be associated with ancient introgression from domestic dogs. In our recently accepted paper at @genomeresearch.bsky.social we provide new insights: genome.cshlp.org/cgi/content/... 🐺🧬🐶

It gives me immense pleasure that the very first congress of the recently established Brazilian Society for Evolutionary Biology @sbbe.bsky.social successfully took place in the South of Brazil a few weeks ago. Many kudos to the incumbent SBBE Board and SBBE24 Local Committee!

Journal editors - I would like to review a manuscript with a PhD (for training purposes) - if you have a manuscript for review on any of the following topics - sparrow behaviour, urban-rural avian ecology, avian diet/feeding/foraging, bill morphology - please consider sending me a review request!

The Kebschull and @rezakalhor.bsky.social labs are recruiting a joint postdoc for an exciting project at the interface of phylodynamics and neuroscience. Come join us at JHU BME. Spread the word, and contact us if you are interested. #hiring 🧪🧠. More on www.kebschull-lab.org and below.

My very first publication here and for a great reason 🎉 It was lovely to interact with @homerej.bsky.social during my time at the Technical University of Denmark. It is even better to see his article now out 🦪 🧬 📄

🦪 Out yesterday some genome-wide work on the native European flat oyster , <i>Ostrea edulis</i>. Once widespread along European coasts but is now functionally extinct due to overfishing and disease. Threads 1/n 🦪 🔗 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
