We discuss how non-native English speakers face invisible labour, higher rejection rates, and limited access to resources and networks, reinforcing structural asymmetries. We also reflect on how open science can unintentionally reproduce inequalities.

This work was a collaborative effort of an amazing team of researchers from different areas of expertise. Led by @rturba.bsky.social and @cmarin.bsky.social with the participation of @elinatakola.bsky.social @michaelgbertram.bsky.social among others. It was a really fun and enlightening experience.

#Camouflage on the move.

Trumpetfish more often selected similarly coloured fish to β€˜shadow’ (swim alongside when hunting).
Doing so reduced the anti-predator responses of prey.
