Paper on the largest batch of reference-quality termite and cockroach genomes (45+2) is now avail as preprint. Congrats to to joint effort of @tom_oist ,@MarkChHarrison, @strepsipterman, Cong Liu, Cedric Aumont , @aaragret and co-authors! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

My first Preprint from my postdoc @bornberglab Looking at Transcription factors in cockroaches and termites and the regulatory changes that are associated with Eusociality biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I'm looking for a graduate student (master's level) to join my lab starting Fall 2025. If you know any undergraduates interested in termite behavior and evolution, please let them know!

Whatever it takes to get @lacholt to join for a hike

Two papers in my previous group got published during the last months, so happy to share this one by Alina Mikhailova × 2 et al! @agmkhlva 🦾

Hi everyone! I just moved to the Bay Area and am looking for an unpaid position as a bioinformatician or scientific manager. I have 5+ years of experience in multi-omics (genomics, transcriptomic, and microbiology) with multi-year, cross-national project…lnkd.in/dKfaScth

We are happy to host the 5th international Nasonia meeting in Münster this Summer! Register now! wwuindico.uni-muenster.de/event/1713/ @juergengadau @WWU_Muenster

First day of the Blattodea conference organized by @MarkChHarrison and @TeePi11 🥳

@nedobioengineer Так рада за тебя! 😍😍😍

@CantonWiner @socwomen Wow, that's exactly what I was wondering about how common it is to loose the feeling of a specific gender for ace folks. Congrats on the award! 🤩

My paper on the relationship between asexuality and feelings of detachment from gender just won the 2023 Graduate Student Paper award from @socwomen-South! I’m thrilled to see this work recognized by a feminist organization. A quick summary of the paper:

My amazing MGSE fellows 🥰

Recruiting two PhDs and a Postdoc for my Evolutionary Entomology team at Czech University of Life Sciences, Prague to work on evolutionary trends and trajectories in convergently adapted termitophilous insects and their termite hosts. See bucek.ftz.czu.cz/cs/r-19087-ava….
