Our colleague Dr @Flewrabi has inaugurated the Autumn Seminars in Biology '24 @UniTurku. Congrats on your great talk! In @UTUAnimEcol, her research focuses on protecting #waterfowl and wader species from increased hunting pressure from invasive and human-subsidised #mesopredators

We had a great day in the countryside, where most of the @UTUAnimEcol team enjoyed a hiking route in #Kurjenrahka National Park and the @UniTurku forests where interesting projects can be developed with students on #forest management, ecological succession, habitat selection, etc

I will give a talk at #SEBconference on the importance of small-scale habitat on gut #microbiota composition in the pied #flycatcher! If you are interested I will be happy to share our results with you! #Microbiome session organized by @RuuskanenSuvi @CharliSDavies @SilvaZebra

After a hard #fieldwork with lots of #mosquitoes 🦟, ticks 🕷️, intense heat 🥵🌡️, rain 🌧️ and thousands of caterpillar webs on our faces 🐛🕸️🤮, we conclude the experiment where we test the susceptibility to #malaria infection in #GreatTits! @MSCActions @UniTurku 🧵Great team! ⬇️

Our #fieldwork in #Ruissalo @UniTurku started last week 🇫🇮! Today the first #GreatTit eggs have appeared (laying date 3 May)! One week later than last year. Something different from the advanced laying dates found in the rest of Europe! 😲 Second field season for my #MSCActions!

This week we are in a group writing retreat in Lammi biological station. Today was an outdoors day in #Evo while checking sites for a course visit later this spring. Old forest, beaver ponds (+ a nest Sari is pointing out) and quite some snow still!

This March I started my 3-month PhD stay with the @UTUAnimEcol lab at the @UniTurku 🇫🇮. Here, I will conduct a neo-taphonomic analysis on birds consumed by the White-Tailed Eagle 🦅 from the Åland archipelago under the supervision of @ToniLaaksonen2 @iphes – at Turku, Finland

Welcome @MargotTurc 🎉! She is a French student holding an #Erasmus+ Internship with me at @UTUAnimEcol @UniTurku 🇫🇮. Together, we will be studying the #immunological costs of increased #testosterone levels during early development in a wild #GreatTit population 🐣🩸🦠🔬👩🏻‍🔬🧪🧬

As part of my @MSCActions-funded project at @UniTurku @UTUAnimEcol, we conducted last spring a yolk #hormone manipulation experiment in #GreatTit to test the androgen-mediated maternal effect on #parasite susceptibility and accelerated #ageing 🐦🩸🦠🔬⏳
