New preprint by former PhD student Nathalie Zeballos. We competed two strains of the microalga Dunaliella salina, one of which induces programmed cell death (PCD), to understand how selection can maintain this puzzling trait over multiple cycles of salinity rise. t.co/MHoM3ngpvH
Please Repost: Extended deadline for Conference Jacques Monod on Phenotypic Plasticity: March 21st! Registration involves sending a CV and abstract, and all participants present their work (or project for early PhD students). cjm2-2024.sciencesconf.org?forward-acti...
A few days left to apply to the Jacques Monod Conference on plasticity!
Incidentally, March 11 is the both deadline for registration to our conference, and for submitting contributions to a special issue of @FunEcology on phenotypic plasticity! cjm2-2024.sciencesconf.orgbesjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/hub/journal/...
We thank @funecology.bsky.social@britishecolsoc.bsky.social for their support! If interested, please justify in your application why you need it (lack of other funding) and deserve it (work on topic relevant to the conference and the journal).
News: Registration fees for 1 PhD student will be covered by @funecology.bsky.social, which publishes papers that significantly advance our mechanistic understanding of ecological pattern and process from the organismic to the ecosystem scale.

Roscoff (Bretagne), France, June 17-21, 2024 Deadline for application: March 11, 2024
Dive into Evolution in Paris with EvoGEM! Our #MasterProgramevogem.fr#EvoGEM
This will be a great opportunity to explore how phenotypic plasticity challenges and expands our thinking and practices about many problems in biology, from the genotype-phenotype map to eco-evolutionary responses to environmental change. Looking forward to meeting you there with Cameron Ghalambor!
CJMs are organized by @CNRSbiologie and @CNRSecologie, and include ~100 participants who all present their work (oral or poster). The conference venue is a historical marine biology station in a beautiful village in Brittany: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Station...
