82 % der wissenschaftlichen Beschäftigten unterhalb der Professur arbeiten befristet.
Das ist kein vorübergehendes Nachwuchsproblem, sondern Ausdruck struktureller Fehlanreize im deutschen Hochschulsystem.

Lunchbox Models seminar series continues next week! 🦊

A short german article in a printed magazine regarding the launch of the Lunchbox seminar series. Also features a a small poster with QR Code for the series and the author faces (Louica Philipp and Korinna Allhoff)

A small German article in a printed magazine that is held by a hand. The article is a report of the 2025 workshop of the Young Modellers in Ecology (YoMos), written by co-speaker Lisa Merkens. Also features a group picture from in front of the seminar house the workshop took place in.

Look @yomoseco.bsky.social, we're in the (GfÖ-) news! I thought I had read that they would now only publish their magazine digitally, but here it is in print, delivered to all our doorsteps ☺️

Top-down control and species composition influence nonlinearly the short-term response of experimental food webs to a nutrient pulse perturbation Abstract. Extreme weather events intensify with global change and frequently disturb aquatic ecosystems via, e.g. nutrient pulses through surface runoff. W

Also, first time at a big conference that uses an App for its schedule and communication - am I getting old or is this somehow extremely chaotic? 😅

Will be an adventure for sure!

Hey fellow wizards, I'll be at the #BES Annual Meeting in #Edinburgh next week!

If you're interested in food web and metacommunity models, emergence of self-organised patterns and eco-evo feedbacks, please join the >> Theoretical/Computational Ecology << session on Tuesday afternoon 🦊
