Can #metabolic acquisitions ever become permanent? Here, Alexandra Brown, Grace Casarez, and @mixotrophe apply #adaptiveDynamics to a model of "#chloroplastStealing" #microbes to find out when borrowed machinery is better than having your own.

...and another #seminar invitation: Avril Weinbach (postdoc in my team) will present her latest research on Tuesday, March 28, at 11 am:
“Eco-evolutionary responses of mutualistic systems to insect decline and changes in flowering phenology”.
This is a hybrid seminar, so please get in touch in case you would like to join and learn more about the methods that we use to study all sorts of #ecoevo dynamics!

Paper submitted! 🥳
This one is a major win because 3/4 of us are #AcademicMums. We fight with sleep deprivation, inconsistent childcare, countless illnesses and short-term contracts, so 1st author Franz Weyerer had to juggle our numerous work constraints on top of a challenging research project. But we made it work!
Here is our new #preprint showing how #coevolution of #mutualists accelerates or decelerates #pollinator extinction.

@ngons @JacobPhD my involvement came through biological #EvolutionaryDynamics (now #AdaptiveDynamics) before sufficient #MolecularEvolutionary evidence was available and before knowledge of #MachineLearning (when was term invented? I knew about #NeuralNetworks but didn't have computational resources to use them). #Fitness was assumed to be positive based on history of analytical models.

#introduction I am an evolutionary biologist interested by the origins of life and evolutionary transitions in individuality #ETI. I do #theory inspired by #ExperimentalEvolution.
I'd like to understand how living systems emerge and change scale.
I enjoy various approaches such as #Math #Models (#StochasticProcess, #DynamicalSystems, and #AdaptiveDynamics in particular), #PhilosophyOfScience, #Bioinformatics and #Dataviz.
I am a #FOSS and #OpenScience enthusiast. Nice to meet you all !

#AdaptiveDynamics studying #Evolution in the context of #PopulationDynamics. When I worked on it I called it #EvolutionaryDynamics but adaptive dynamics is the name that has stuck. Diagram shows the adaptive dynamics of coevolving predator and prey where no stable #EvolutionaryStableStrategy can be reached.

Our newest case at #sfe2gfoe2022 is #Evolutionary #murder: When coevolution of #mutualists accelerates extinction. Great talk on rather unexpected #adaptivedynamics by Avril Weinbach!

#introduction (I love the idea!)
I am an associate professor at the #LBBE in Lyon
This means I teach for a significant part of my time (maths, genetics) at the #IUTLyon1
In my research I study #evolution with models (#popgen, #adaptivedynamics) more #mechanistic than usual – often this leads me to study #evolution in/of biological #networks

Who is going to attend the annual #ecoevo #conference of SFE2 and GFÖ in Metz?
I'll be there, together with Avril Weinbach (postdoc) and Malina Palmer (soon-to-be PhD student). Both will present some really cool #modeling work on mutualistic systems. Are you joining as well? Then please let us know! We would love to get in touch!

A lightning talk #modelling #adaptation of #migratory #bird #phenology in response to #ClimateChange using #AdaptiveDynamics
(testing how YouTube embedding works on Mastodon)

I am a junior research group leader for #ecoevo #modelling at the University of Hohenheim in Germany.
We study all kinds of #EcologicalNetworks. We want to know how such networks are structured, how they maintain their balance and how they respond to #globalchange. We approach these questions from a theoretical point of view, using computer simulations and mathematics.
