@YoMosEco This has been in the making for a while now: Excited to share #LunchboxModels ! Also, the motto was the perfect excuse to get creative with the website and poster πŸ”
Sorry if you're hungry now πŸ˜€

Check this out 🚨 πŸ‘†πŸ» 🚨 if you are interested in #TheoreticalEcology, #ComputationalEcology, #EcologicalModelling, #EcoModels, #AcademicMastodon, #ecology, #evolution and #ecoevo !

Everybody welcome to our #LunchboxModels #seminar series, especially #PhD students, #postdocs and #ECR ! 😊

Because, you know, all models are wrong, but some are delicious! πŸ˜‹

Our next #LunchBoxModels #seminar is scheduled for Wednesday (March 25) at 12 CET. Nicolas Loeuille (IEES Paris) will talk about the effects of spatial heterogeneity on eco-evolutionary dynamics (and its implications from a management point of view).

See you at lunch! 😊

...and a little spoiler: Nicolas will also talk about how to maintain a healthy #worklifebalance in #academia! It's a VERY important topic, relevant to all of us. So don't think twice, join us! 😊

@YoMosEco @Louzula

A thought that resonated in today’s #LunchboxModels #seminar with Nicolas Loeuille: don’t consider your peers as competitors. Think about them as companions, collaborators, colleagues, maybe friends. Makes the whole academic journey so much more joyful. ☺️

Another thought that resonated today: saying no is saying yes. We have to protect our time and energy to be able to focus on the important things. Saying no to XYZ means I can make time for my students, for my teaching, for my next manuscript or for whatever else that helps me to stay motivated.
