I realised very late how useful philosophy is in biology. Asking the right conceptual questions influences how we think about approaches, data & interpretation. I encourage students/postdocs to come and learn about this during this wonderful summer school. shorturl.at/t4qJ2

Studying cancer across species can reveal new ways to understand and potentially treat cancer. Together with leading experts, we now explain why this field matters more than ever. Full text👉 rdcu.be/etKdN @ImmunoConcept @WicaneResearch @MathieuGiraude3 @ATJCagan

Great interviews with so many awesome collaborators. One takeaway that is relevant given recent studies: Even if larger animals do in fact get more cancer, it does not falsify Peto’s Paradox. Large animals do not get orders of magnitude more cancer. the-scientist.com/peto-s-paradox…

Our new paper, based on data from 1,705 studies, shows that pesticides are toxic to organisms they are not intended to harm, including fungi, microbes, plants, insects, & vertebrates such as ourselves. Questions the wisdom of applying over 3 million tonnes of them every year...

The prevalence of cancer varies widely across vertebrate species, generally decreasing with gestation time and increasing with body mass, according to a study published in @CD_AACR. Learn more: bit.ly/3UlEveY @arizonaevo @UAZCancer

We are excited to announce a 2 year post doc opportunity in comparative oncology, cancer resistance and somatic mutation rate with @ATJCagan and @MathieuGiraude3 (@LIENSsCNRSULR @OVincze_ @CNRSecologie) More information here: wicane.recherche.univ-lr.fr/join-the-lab/

The team is composed of Dr. Mathieu Giraudeau (group co-leader), Dr. Orsolya Vincze (group co-leader), Crystal Morin (PhD student), Louise Maille (PhD student), Anthony Andrieu (PhD student), Valérie Huet (Research assistant), and Stève Desaivre (Research/project manager).

Our research group studies cancer resistance mechanisms in wildlife using a collaborative and multidisciplinary approach (Evolution, Ecology, Cellular Biology, Molecular Biology, Genetic).

The WIldlife CANcer Evolution research group (WiCanE) is born and live on “X”! We are a research group led by @MathieuGiraude3 and @OVincze_ based at @LIENSsCNRSULR at @UnivLaRochelle.

Please RT! PhD offers on wildlife cancer! New PhD positions opening in our group to study the evolution of wildlife cancer across species with Orsolya Vincze and Mathieu Giraudeau #lienss #wildlifecancer #comparativeoncology #PhDposition Contact us ASAP if interested.

@JacanaJones I have the same with AmNat! 🤣 I will never give up!

I have now scheduled the follow-up session to the 'Meta-Analysis with R' workshop I gave prior to #ESMARConf2022 for May 6th. Details here: wvbauer.com/doku.php/works… We will continue where we left off (see here for the materials covered so far: github.com/wviechtb/esmar…).

A very informative read on: "Interactions in statistical models: Three things to know", by @RichardDuncanUC & Kefford at @MethodsEcolEvol. One of those that requires slow and careful reading; it's rich in information! Much recommended doi.org/10.1111/2041-2…

Funny to see our article highlighted on WeirdFacts! 😃@AdamLovasKiss @LukacsBA Original article accessible here: doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Free, full-day meta-analysis course starting in 5 minutes! twitch.tv/wviechtb
