The application window for our Pilot awards and McEwen fellowship closes soon! If you have a project proposal that focuses on animal models and comparative studies to study the social elements of human aging, we encourage you to apply! See more here: animalsocialaging-network.org/funding/

Come be my colleague and join the #SciencePartyInTheDesert !!! We are searching for an assistant or associate professor in anthropological genetics @ASUBeingHuman. See apply.interfolio.com/156498 for more info!

Evolutionary and biomedical implications of sex differences in the primate brain transcriptome. A collaboration btw. @SMack_Lab, James P. Higham, @kchiou, @AlexDeCasien & others @CellGenomics #SfN24 hubs.li/Q02R-MWq0

Post Doc available We are looking for someone to come and work here at @UniofExeter on an NIH funded project awarded to me, @ljnbrent , @SMack_Lab and @kchiou . The aim of the post is to help us investigate comparative primate life history. Details here: jobs.exeter.ac.uk/hrpr_webrecrui…

*Very* excited to see the last study of my PhD making the cover of @ScienceMagazine on the macaques of @CayoSantiagoPR. We show that ecological disturbances can alter selective pressures on social ties leading to persistent societal changes. shorturl.at/i2WIB 🧵👇

Really amazing work by @WildWormsLab !!

Taking identity-by-descent (IBD) analysis into the wild! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… In this preprint, we leverage novel genomic methods to estimate fine-scale gradients of relatedness in animals and highlight their many applications in the field of ecology and evolution.🐒🧬 [1/3]

Help save the Dog Aging Project. Despite being one of the most influential, productive and impactful NIH supported projects over the past 5 years, the National Institute on Aging has inexplicably chosen to withdraw support for the Dog Aging Project. For now, I’m won't get into the details of the process or my personal feelings about it, as the important thing is to ensure the Dog Aging Project doesn’t end. If you believe that the Dog Aging Project has value and should continue, I have three requests of you: (1) Please consider signing the petition to the NIH Director here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/supp… (2) Please consider sending an email to your elected representatives here: actionnetwork.org/letters/suppor… (3) Please share this message with your network as broadly as you can Thank you!!!

🎉 Great news! @GeroScienceAGE wholeheartedly supports the @DogAgingProject 🐶. We're committed to backing @mkaeberlein's initiative for ongoing funding of this innovative program. Our journal eagerly awaits the results to feature in a special #CallForPapers.

Come join us @MPI_EVA_Leipzig! The Dept. of Primate Behavior and Evolution is searching for a database manager to manage primate life history data and our extensive sample inventories, working closely with @gahousman, Fernando Colchero, and me. Details: eva.mpg.de/career/positio…

Postdoc opening: NSF collaboration with @CarrieMongle @sbululab needs you! Come help us study the causes & consequences of aging in the wild geladas of Ethiopia along with our collaborative @GeladaResearch team. Apply here: stonybrooku.taleo.net/careersection/…

@MitoPsychoBio @ChrisPalmerMD Don't know exactly how–probably many steps in the mechanistic pathway(s). HPA axis is key: chronic stress (unpredictability & poor support) affects metabolism, inflammation, etc. Review: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Loneliness is a public health priority: nature.com/articles/s4156…

@ChrisPalmerMD @SMack_Lab has done great research on this. Noah, any useful links or thoughts on this for people here?

"Social isolation can decrease lifespan, reduce immune capacity, disrupt sleep, and cause metabolic dysfunction." How? This study in ants suggests oxidative stress is key. Mental and metabolic health are inseparable.

2 weeks left to apply! Looking for a POSTDOC to work on social and environmental aging with me at @CrabExeter, and with @nyuprimatology + @SMack_Lab. DEADLINE Nov 26th. Details from @UoE_Jobs here: jobs.exeter.ac.uk/hrpr_webrecrui… Extra info: docs.google.com/document/d/1xw

🚨New paper on early life adversity and survival in ⁦@CayoSantiagoPR⁩ monkeys @Ecol_Evol⁩ Congrats to our student authors 👇🏼 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

Clark, PNAS 2023 (C23) argued that people’s social status is largely determined by genetic variation. Here, we show these claims are unsubstantiated, & that C23 in fact tells us nothing about the contribution of genetics to status. @JedMSP @arbelharpak biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We will be on 60 Minutes this Sunday 5th Nov from 7pm ET (right after the NFL game) talking with Leslie Stahl about our work investigating hurricane impacts on Cayo Santiago. twitter.com/60minutes/stat…
