SO EXCITED to see this awesome paper by @SamRPJRoss (& lots of us) out in the world. Come see how predators are able to mitigate the impacts of realistic future heatwaves. Check out the experimental set up below! :) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gc…

@nikkidementri @CBSPhiladelphia You're the best!!!

Mo and Mike are still on the hunt for two tickets to see Taylor! They’re out in the Wells Fargo lot cooking up hot dogs for fellow Swifties. They told me they’re having a great time regardless if they get to go inside the Linc tonight. @CBSPhiladelphia

Let's go O's! @Orioles @budweiserusa #hitthebudssweepstakes

Recruiting a PhD student to work on #invasivespecies and #stream #restoration with @LeightonReid and Tess T, starting Jan 2023. @vtspes @globalchangevt @VTCals Please RT!

Today is the anniversary of the Stonewall riots, the reason Pride is in June. In 1969, it was illegal to wear clothes that were considered inappropriate for one's sex and when the police raided the Stonewall Inn's gay bar, they started to do a genital check (as was procedure).

Back from #Andina workshop #DoingEcologyDifferent. The best workshop I have ever been. Top scientists, unconvetional setting, great energy and very productive! Thangs to the organzizers Roger Cousens, Michael Williams, Emili Garcia-Berthou,@KuhnIngolf, @tif_knight and many others

Extremely excited to share our work on Parthenogenesis without costs in a grasshopper with hybrid origins science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… out now in @ScienceMagazine

Congratulations to our undergrads for presenting their thesis posters today!! Very proud 🌟 @TCDZoology @TCD_NatSci @tcddublin

@nataliemastick Seriously, best guest lecture ever. So glad my students at @McDanielCollege got to learn from the best at @UW!!

This wouldn't be possible without our incredible collaborators at @HokkaidoUni @ARC_HokkaidoU including those pictured here, and all my coauthors including @donohueian @molinos_jorge @MoDubs11. We were funded by @IrishResearch @InsideNatGeo. (13/14)

Our latest study in @GlobalChangeBio shows that predators can buffer aquatic communities against heatwaves, highlighting their importance in the fight against climate change. @donohueian @molinos_jorge @tcddublin @HokkaidoUni @IrishResearch @InsideNatGeo (📸🧵 1/14):

Stop funding research (the way you do) Because it is wasteful, unethical and unscientific A thread (1/16)

On Sat 15 Jan we mark Aoibheann's months passing by celebrating her with a sponsored walk through Glendalough; a place she adored. Meet 9:30 upper lake carpark. All welcome. Donations to Dogs Aid, where she often volunteered: idonate.ie/walkingforaoib… Thanks for your support.

How did Pete Davidson get his hands on all six Infinity Stones?

It is still so deeply incomprehensible that today we lay to rest the amazing and talented Dr. Aoibheann Gaughran. Words can’t possibly describe the joy, laughter and enthusiasm Aoibheann brought to everyone’s lives and to the field of Irish ecology 🦡

Tomorrow, we are heartbroken to have to say goodbye to Dr Aoibheann Gaughran, a wonderful friend and colleague whose positive and always joyful presence never failed to light up our department. Our sincere condolences to Aoibheann’s family and loved ones. May she rest in peace.
