#commonlizard — Public Fediverse posts

Excited to share the publication of this paper, the first of Léa Koch's PhD at #EPHE.

Using of pedigreed population of #commonlizard, we found that dispersal is genetically variable and heritable.

Polymorphism maintenance is maintained through antagonistic selection at different timescales (individual's lifetime vs. multigenerational), leading to equilibrium after several generations.

Our #commonlizard survey in the #Cevennes was labelled "Long-Term Survey of Life", a great initiative by#INEE @CNRS, which should ensure its funding for many years!

I also obtained 1 #ANR "Young Researcher" and 1 one in collaboration with @jflegalliard, Sandrine Meylan, Julien Cote et Olivier Lourdais

I also got selected at #IUF, which comes with funding as well.

Thanks to them for trusting in me, and #EPHE and #MNHN for their continued support!
