Workshop 'Women in Evolutionary Biology' (not only for women!)
The focus is on science, but there will also be discussion sessions on topics relevant for women in academia. For details and registration, see: https://t.co/6tEcY0RWG8
Great initiative by students and Postdocs @MPI_EvolBio!
Women in Evolutionary Biology is an event to promote diversity and equality in the field. For this purpose, we bring together female scientists from different backgrounds working in evolutionary biology for scientific presentations and discussion sessions on topics relevant for women in science. The event’s main focus is science, and while all keynote speakers are women, everyone is welcome to participate by giving a short scientific talk or presenting a poster. We also aim to facilitate...
New preprint by @GilYardeni "The explosive radiation of the Neotropical Tillandsia subg. Tillandsia (Bromeliaceae) has been facilitated by pervasive hybridization." 👏

We used whole-genome reseq data of 34 Tillandsia sp and observe high rates of hybridization within and among clades, which could have facilitated this radiation.
In addition to all the phylogenomic work (figs in the main text), don't hesitate to have a look at the SI (e.g. introgression footprint on chr18)
I just deleted my ResearchGate account, because 👇

Climat : les pays signataires de l'accord de Paris ne vont baisser leurs émissions que de 2% d'ici 2030 (alors qu'elles devraient être réduites de 43%)
VERY cool preprint: sequencing the mucilage of the carnivorous sundew Drosera spatulata reveals a dominant acidophilic fungal species (Acrodontium crateriforme) that seems to assist in digestion of prey!
Happy to share a collectively written review. We hope this will be useful to the community!

This started thanks to a very interesting ESEB funded progress meeting. Great lead by E Berdan, K Johannesson, S Schaeffer, and T Flatt 🙂
