hei,
finally found my way :)
great to see the #evolution and #ecology community here!
hope to share some of our research taking place at the #UniversityOfHelsinki on #EcoEvolutionaryModelling, #ExperimentalEvolution, #genetics of #adaptation, and #ComputerModelling in #EvolutionaryBiology, with a focus on genetics of #ComplexTraits, #QuantitativeGenetics, and #PopulationGenetics, not forgetting #EcoEvolutionaryDynamics.

Hi fellow ecoevo socialites! My name is Walid Mawass and I hail from the small country of Lebanon, currently in the US (previously Canada and France). I count myself as an #evolutionarygeneticist, my research interests focus on #naturalselection and #geneticvariation. I work with both #quantitativegenetics and #populationgenetics models, heavy on the computation. I am currently working on #mutationload and #populationdynamics. Other interests include #music #policy #education

I am a Senior Lecturer in #SilwoodPark at #ImperialCollegeLondon. I am interested how social behaviours (#MateChoice, SexualSelection, #sociality) and #LifeHistory traits (#ageing, reproductive traits) evolve in birds. I've also published on #WomenInScience. I use #quantitativegenetics to better understand how #phenotypes are governed by #genetic architecture.
I have too many #pets, I like #hiking, #birding, #moths, and #fungi.
Will follow you back - toot!

I am an Associate Professor in the Dept. of Biological Sciences at #VirginiaTech. I study #evolutionarybiology in #snakes, #lizards, #birds, and other organisms. I use #quantitativegenetics, #bioinformatics, and #theory to understand #evolution of complex #phenotypes.
I'm not posting a lot right now, but that might change. Expect mostly #science, #academia, etc. Will keep #music and #baseball on the birdsite for now.
Following everyone back for a limited time.

👋 :mastodon:,
I'm a researcher at #INRAE-Nouzilly (France) studying #quantitativegenetics of #chicken #behaviour (especially #socialbehavior) to improve #animalwelfare
I tackle these questions using my background from #EvolutionaryBiology. I've investigated how #sexualselection and #genetic constraints (#pleiotropy, between life stages & sexes) can drive the #evolution of phenotypes & behaviours in red #junglefowl and #drosophila (some cool stuffs to be published soon!)

138 followers · 28 posts · Server ecoevo.social#Introduction - I am an #evolutionary #biologist studying the early evolution of #family life and #social life (mainly) in #insects.
The methods I use typically involve #behaviours, #immunity (social immunity), #ecotoxicology (#anthropic effects), and #quantitativegenetics.
My main study system is the #earwig (#Dermaptera), a fantastic but little-known taxon.
I am a very strong defender of #OpenScience

I am interested in understanding the #evolution of quantitative traits in #livestock populations, with a specific interest for #recombination. I do #DataAnalysis and method development in #popgen and #QuantitativeGenetics. I like #programming in #python and playing with #R
