Kimberley Lemmen

ONE week left to apply - PhD position on a VERY cool project.

I spent 3 years as a postdoc with Frank, and it was the most scientifically rewarding phases of my career thus far. He is an excellent mentor, and the facilities at UZH are incredible. PLUS Switzerland is absolutely beautiful.

APPLY!

Checked on the article I wrote about Juneteenth in 2023…

Jana Isanta-Navarro giving a presentation in a lecture hall.

Kimberley Lemmen and Jana Isanta Navarro standing outside the University of Zurich.

Had a wonderful time hosting Jana Isanta-Navarro at the University of Zurich's IEU BEEES Series - super interesting talk reflecting on how anthropogenic environmental change alters consumer-resource interactions and lots of great chats with the UZH/EAWAG community 🤩

What a fantastic talk by Sara Mitri at the University of Zurich today! So many insights into bacterial interactions in different environmental contexts, over time, with co-evolution. 🤩 Amazing work. Thanks for organizing this seminar @klemmen.bsky.social!

Since I've introduced a few of my colleagues to this resource recently:

www.phylopic.org has free to use silhouettes of a large number of organisms. These can be really useful for drawing out phylogenies (for the non biologists: basically a species-level family tree).

Experiment currently running in one of our climate chambers, examining the effect of various pollutants on the plant-soil system.

This article is the result of a fantastic collaboration with Puni Jeyasingh, Steven Declerck and the amazing Rana El-Sabaawi who lead and help together this team over many drafts and years (5/5)

We believe this framework can be applied to other research questions such as the ecological effects of intraspecific trait variation and may prove essential in forecasting the consequences of rapid changes to biogeochemical cycles in the Anthropocene  (4/5)

BUT … to do so successfully researchers must expand beyond organismal stoichiometry, and study all components of the elemental phenotype – the acquisition, assimilation, allocation and losses of elements (3/5)

We propose that examining eco-evolutionary dynamics through the lens of ecological stoichiometry can improve our mechanistic understanding of the links between microevolution (2/5)

I'm Dan Bolnick (EEB, Univ Connecticut). I'd love to recruit a PhD student to work on a 9 whole-lake experimental evolution project in Alaska (info here: tinyurl.com/mrxwasvp )
especially focused on evolution of diet & infection & immunity

We are looking for a new Data Editor AmNat @asn-amnat.bsky.social to start in 2024. In 2021, we pioneered the use of a data editor to greatly improve the quality of data repositories for all published papers. More details are here: amnat.org/announcements/…

Please repost to help spread the word

So, let's try this one out... hopefully we can recreate what we had before!
I am a plant ecologist and biodiversity scientist at the Department of Geography of the University of Zurich in Switzerland. I am interested in all things biodiversity, plants, ecology, social justice and feminism.

Excited to join the BlueSky community!

I'm a evolutionary ecologist at the University of Zurich using microcosm experiments to investigate the role of trophic interaction modifications in community dynamics.

Interested in all things eco-evo (especially consumer-resource interactions).
