Even more biased: I'm excited about the project 'Turbulent Partners: Unravelling Host-Virus Coevolution in Dynamic Environments' with Adam Monier and Daniel Kattnig. Drop me an email if interested! www.exeter.ac.uk/v8media/rese...

I might be biased, but I highly recommend the LSI PhD programme. Our strength are interdisciplinarity and community. As a member of the committee, I've seen a number of students on a wide range of projects grow as scientists while discovering new findings!

While you wait for the next MEEhubs conference: We've written up the participants' impressions, the organisers' thoughts, reflections on the expectations we scientists have on conferences, and much more in @femsjournals.bsky.social, led by Ariane Wenger. Check out doi.org/10.1093/fems....

Another opportunity for a PhD studentship to study coevolution in a dynamic environment at the @lsiexeter.bsky.social and the Physics department. Please reach out with any questions. Deadline: 10th February 2025 www.exeter.ac.uk/v8media/recr...

It was fun talking about this project at a conference - I think for the first time - and a pleasure to give the very last talk at #MultiBac2025. I learned so much about multicellular bacterial systems at this meeting and take home a number of ideas and concepts.

Expert's Dilemma: the more specialized you become, the less open you are to creative solutions from other fields. But the more you explore other fields, the more you risk losing credibility in your home field. Interdisciplinary work is still not really embraced by academia.

20 more days to apply for the @lsiexeter.bsky.social PhD programme. Check out the list of projects following the link below. I might be biased, but one of the most exciting is on coevolution in turbulent environments. Drop me a message if you are interested!

New article by @jamesgyke.bsky.social, Jamie Shutler, and me @gsiexeter.bsky.social, explaining why carbon offsetting should be removed from Net Zero plans. theconversation.com/we-have-offi...
theconversation.com
We have officially advised our university to ditch carbon offsets – and focus on cutting emissions
Your organisation should probably ditch offsets too.

Different type of conference for me today. It was a pleasure contributing to a session at EAUC conference on reducing aviation emissions, talked about @meehubs.bsky.social and new ways of conferencing. Encouraging to hear what is happening in the sector.

On my way home from #MEEhubs2024. Feeling exhausted, proud, and privileged to haved worked with amazing colleagues, amongst many most closely with Sara Mitri, @prokaryota.bsky.social and @erikbakkeren.bsky.social. Hopefully, the next @meehubs.bsky.social can have (even) more hubs across the globe!

Hosted a session on sustainability at @MEEhubs tonight. Not surprising, but still good to see how people from near and far discuss the same topics we do at LSI Exeter, Exeter Physics and @uniofexeter.bsky.social. Local change is not a drop in the ocean!

Updated advert! PhD project on the role of fluid flow and luck in the evolution of microbial interactions in the vast ocean - plenty of opportunity for the PhD student to shape this interdisciplinary project. Deadlines 8th Jan and 19th Feb 2024, see www.moebiuslabexeter.uk/join-us
Illustrated version of:

The role of fluid flow and luck in the evolution of microbial interactions in the vast ocean

How can interactions in the ocean evolve if the descendants of the interaction partners will be swept far away by fluid flow?

How often do descendants of microbes encounter each other in the ocean so they get to interact and co-evolve?

How to model evolution in the ocean without needing to model all the flow?

How to test some of these ideas in the lab?

Interested? Join us in the Living Systems Institute at the
University of Exeter!

Two application opportunities with deadlines 8th January 2024 and 19th February 2024.

More information: https://www.moebiuslabexeter.uk/join-us

Are you interested in the ocean, stochastic processes, and evolution? Do you want to work with simulations, pen and paper, and in the lab? Consider applying to the LSI PhD Programme in Complex Living Systems, exeter.ac.uk/research/liv...! Reach out if you have any questions.
