Ahahah but yet! But I'm feeling a bit under the weather and Otto is keeping me warm! ❤️🐶

A page of a notebook with a drawing of three shrews, one wearing a crown. On the top left of the image, next to the notebook, Otto the dog looks at the camera

Day three of #Inktober!

How to say a Sorex araneus from a Sorex coronatus?

Well, the #crown is telling!

Thanks for being there with us!

Yey! 😍 Save the date and join us at the conference!

🚨We want you! 🚨

Come join @saoirsekelleher.eco and me at the SORTEE Conference to talk about starting your Code Club!

Find out more about the conference here: sortee.org/upcoming/

Take note, repost far and wide. The Dechmann Lab are hiring ✨

I DM you!

Apparently this project is popular among faculty members 😬😆 we already have two group leaders and now a professor in line to join! 🤩

Seasonal size change and aging in shrews

PhD Alert! 😍 Our lab is hiring a PhD student to study how shrews shrink in winter and grow in spring. Yes, you read that right!

Join us at the @mpi-animalbehav.bsky.social, study a super cool animal, and join the @imprs-qbee.bsky.social community!

DM me for questions!

A promotional image for a fake data science conference run by pets. The left half of the square image is blue and says "Purr-plexing: what your human's code is REALLY doing (and how to fix it) pawsit conf 2025." On the right side is a photo of a kitten sitting on a keyboard staring at a computer monitor. At the bottom right is the cat's name and "company" - Fennec from The Royal Feline Society for Applied Paw-gramming. This is all a bit of fun produced by the folks at #Posit, Libby Heeren and Rachael Dempsey, for the #rstats #python and #databs communities

I might be biased (cat-biased?), but this #pawsitconf submission is just too cuuuuuute 🥹 Thank you for sharing Fennec's talk with us, @cecibaldoni.bsky.social ✨

This is truly getting me pumped for conf in the most adorable way possible 🐈

🕷️ 🚨 Are you at the #DZG in Berlin next week? @dzg2025berlin.bsky.social my PhD @nadjageiger.bsky.social and I are very excited to tell you the latest about our spider sleep 💤 work! Come check out our talks on Friday and ask all your questions! :) 🚨 🕷️

🚨 PhD alert! IMPRS brain & behavior in Bonn just opened their calls for applications. Great PhD funding opportunities. Check it out! PS- I just joined their faculty, meaning you could do a rotation in my lab or even a PhD with me on spider sleep 🙃 Apply! 🚨

(also, know that I'll take inspiration ❤️)

You are never gonna convince me this is procrastination instead of cool coding. NEVER!

The poster features photos of five speakers: Prof. Dr. Felix Schönbrodt, Prof. Dr. Richard McElreath, Dr. Tim Errington, Dr. Malika Ihle, and Vera Karlbauer. The text states the skills that the lectures will develop, the dates for the lectures running from September 15-18 2025, and instructions to register online. Logos of LMU Open Science Center, LMU, and Universitätsbibliothek München are displayed at the bottom.

📢 This year, we’re hosting seven public lectures that anyone can attend completely free of charge between Sept 15 and 18!
📅 Registration for online attendance is open.

Oooh congratulations Kylie! 🤩

WE WANT YOU! 🫵

Our organiser @kylieainslie.bsky.social is leaving us to go Down Under. 🦘 We're looking for new organisers to continue with @josefina-bernardo.bsky.social to keep @rladiesamsterdam.bsky.social the wonderful community it is. If you're in NL and interested, please get in touch! 💜

Rare seasonal brain shrinkage in shrews is driven by water loss, not cell death Common shrews are one of only a handful of mammals known to flexibly shrink and regrow their brains. This rare seasonal cycle, known as Dehnel’s phenomenon, has puzzled scientists for decades. A study...

Scientists discover the secret behind the shrew’s amazing ability to shrink their brains 🧠

The clever trick sheds unwanted weight without compromising too much on cognition.

Programmed seasonal brain shrinkage in the common shrew via water loss without cell death Brain plasticity, the brain’s inherent ability to adapt its structure and function, is crucial for responding to environmental challenges but is usual…

The secret to shrew brain shrinkage? 🤔
Not cell loss, but water loss!
Our new paper shows that brain cells shrink by losing water, a wild feat of brain plasticity 🤯
