@MacColl_Lab
Andrew MacColl's stickleback lab based @UoNLifeSci studying ecology, evolution, genetics and behaviour in the wonderful three-spined stickleback! 🐟🐟




















Our new paper is now online @Ecol_Evol: Relationships between immune gene expression and circulating cytokine levels in wild house mice (with @JFennBio, @ElenaArriero, @MacColl_Lab and others not on Twitter...) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…





What feels like my life's work is finally ready... our work on #speciation in sympatric #stickleback species-pairs is out in @MBE_press, a huge collaborative effort @AndrewFoote2 @DanDagostino_ @Suz_McG @MacColl_Lab & others not on twitter, thanks all! :) doi.org/10.1093/molbev…


We found a wild #stickleback (nicknamed the 'Virgin Mary'), pregnant with almost fully developed embryos, which are still alive today (see photo)!! Find out how we think it happened in our paper out today in @SciReports! (rdcu.be/bnEWz) #Evolution #Biology @FishSci



Last chance to apply, fully funded #PhD combining #maths with #evolutionarybiology. A rare and fantastic opportunity for an interdisciplinary PhD. The closing date for applications is 25th Jan and not many applications have been received yet - don't miss out. #phdchat #phdlife

New on @EvolLetters EarlyView from Haenel et al: Predictable genome‐wide sorting of standing genetic variation during parallel adaptation to basic versus acidic environments in stickleback fish onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

We've got another fantastic PhD opportunity in the @MacColl_Lab for a strongly mathmatically minded biologist or a maths / physics / engineering graduate with a penchant for evolutionary biology! findaphd.com/search/Project…
