New in @science.org ‼️ In the most comprehensive study to date, we show that wildlife trade is driving animal-to-human zoonotic spillover at a planetary scale, with +1 spillover per host every 10 years. Live animal markets and illegal trade pose even greater risks. 🔓 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Excited to share our new preprint! 🧬🦌 We investigated inbreeding and demographic history of caribou across western Canada using genome-wide SNP data, covering 45 subpopulations grouped into 6 metapopulations. Take a look 👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Reine solo sous les tropiques ou colonies géantes dans le désert, le climat dicte l'organisation des fourmis
Une ou plusieurs reines, petites ou grandes colonies, ouvrières identiques ou différentes, comment expliquer l'étonnante diversité des sociétés de fourmis ? Une nouvelle étude montre que le climat jou...
