#ISBE2026 begins today. To celebrate the congress, we're sharing some of the latest Dryad datasets linked to society journal articles...while wishing we were in Turin too!

First up is "Data from: Body condition reveals hidden correlations between co-infection and behavior in sunfish"

📊 Data on Dryad: https://datadryad.org/dataset/doi:10.5061/dryad.s4mw6m9j8

🔍 📖 Article in Behavioral Ecology: https://academic.oup.com/beheco/article/36/4/araf055/8145617?login=false
