The UC Davis Center for Population Biology postdoctoral fellowship is now being advertised. This is a great opportunity to come join our wonderful community of Evolution & Ecology here at Davis. Please RT

New research has found that mosquitoes collected from lower latitudes and warmer climates were more tolerant of high temperatures than those collected from higher latitudes and colder climates. 🥶 🦟

If you’re around for the poster session at #ESA2023 tomorrow (Thurs) make sure to swing by poster 232 to learn about the effects of genetic diversity on invasion success, presented by Dylan Loth.
To those at #ESA2023 interested in parasites, climate, coevolution, or local adaptation come to my talk tomorrow (Thurs) at 10:30am in D137

I’m defending my PhD May 17th! It will be ~1 hour talk on mosquito-borne disease & climate warming and anyone is welcome to attend (either in person or via zoom)!
Read about my “parallel replay” experiment in replicated populations of Daphnia in a natural pond. Spoiler: we see similar genotype frequency changes across them all! Just published: dx.doi.org/10.1002/ece3.9896
PhDone! Thanks to @seb_schreiber and Tom Schoener for being amazing advisors. My finishing talk is online here: youtube.com/watch?v=qOcjJgn5…
Congratulations to Dr. @k_lyberger on submitting her completed thesis!! An amazing body of work using field & lab experiments, mathematical modeling, and advanced statistical methods to examine dynamics at the interface of ecology and evolution. I learnt so much from Kelsey!
My first chapter on evolution in response to extreme events is out in AmNat journals.uchicago.edu/doi/ab…
My second chapter on life history evolution in response to size selection and density dependent selection is out in Ecology Letters onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Check out my #ESA2021 talk. We tested a couple classic ecological hypotheses about invasion using Daphnia and other zooplankton cdmcd.co/WkzwKn

We are looking for two new graduate student reps to serve on the ASN grad council! Apply here: amnat.org/announcements/NomG… by Aug 22

This morning, the @CosmosUcDavis students in the "mathematical modeling in the life sciences" cluster are giving their group project presentations. So exciting and impressive!
A little late to the automated translation game but all the versions of "Daphnia" it came up with are cracking me up: "apnea, Gothia, Daphne, Dragnea, Daffy in" Oh and another great one: "cycle avoid cocoa pods"
Last night I dreamt about setting up an experiment looking at behavior differences between clones of Daphnia. I was measuring swim speed and vertical migration. Has this been done?
Have you participated in writing a paper with a dozen or more authors? E.g. a working group writing a review. How was it?

Work by @k_lyberger in @Ecology_Letters shows that density-dependent selection & size-selection both have significant but complementary effects on life history evolution(LHE). Need more LHE studies to look at both forms of selection within the same system
