Our next #LunchBoxModels #seminar is scheduled for Wednesday (July 29) at 12 CET. I myself will discuss the question whether #evolution is good for #biodiversity. I will also share my experience juggling family and research.
See you at lunch! 😊

Most of my team members are currently busy preparing their #conference talks for the #MMEE2026 in Cork (Mathematical Models in #Ecology and #Evolution) and I'm such a proud PI. They have SO MUCH super fascinating stuff in the pipeline! 🤩
Who else is coming? I would love to get in touch!

PS, I'll present recent work from Felix Jäger, PhD student in my group. The talk is entitled "Between Friends and Foes - Evolutionary #Diversification in Mutualistic-Antagonistic Networks" and based on our joint #preprint.

I’m on my way home after a really nice and inspiring #MPDEE #conference in #Leicester. I think my talk was a success but it’s kind of sad to think about how many hours I spend preparing it...
So, just in case you want to learn about #EvolutionaryRescue and it’s counterpart, #EvolutionaryMurder, please let me know, I would be happy to recycle those slides for another occasion!

Our next #LunchBoxModels #seminar is scheduled for Wednesday (March 25) at 12 CET. Nicolas Loeuille (IEES Paris) will talk about the effects of spatial heterogeneity on eco-evolutionary dynamics (and its implications from a management point of view).
See you at lunch! 😊

Nice study showing yet another effect of the ongoing temperature increase due to #ClimateChange : French oak populations were, over time, less exposed to late spring frost damage, in frequency as well as extent, which are largely driven by the temporal advance of both the last spring frost day and budburst dates.

#seminar alert! ⏰
Next Tuesday, Frank Hilker from the University of Osnabrück will give a talk in our Ecology Colloquium entitled
"To connect or not connect isolated patches: Total population abundance and failed rescue effects in fragmented landscapes".
Everyone welcome, either in person or via Zoom, the more the merrier! 😀

🚨new paper published! 🚨
„Many weak and few strong links“ seems to be a common pattern in many ecological networks. 1st author Franziska Koch shows that this pattern can enable stabilising effects of network structure, using competitive hierarchies as a case study. We argue that skewed link strength distributions should hence receive more attention, especially in studies based on #RandomMatrixTheory.

🚨 New #preprint online! 🚨
"Forecasting #bryozoan assemblage dynamics under simulated #ClimateChange" by Mira Baer et al.
We use an #IndividualBasedModel to explore potential future bryozoan assemblage dynamics. We show that successional patterns strongly depend on the duration of the growing season as well as on the spatial distribution of predation events - which are both likely to change due to #ClimateWarming...

Minor revisions! 🎉
...and apparently our method to derive competitive interaction strengths from empirical observation is considered "extremely elegant". That's a nice vacation start! 🥳

🚨 new paper online 🚨
From friend to foe and back: coevolutionary transitions in the mutualism–antagonism continuum
1st author Felix Jäger studied the dynamic nature of biotic interactions and identified an evolutionary #TippingPoint: a gradual change in environmental conditions may lead to an abrupt breakdown of #mutualism to #antagonism, which can‘t be reversed by restoring the initial conditions. 🤯

Hi everyone,
For our next institute's #seminar # (Thursday, 14:15 CET) I've invited Christian Guill and Louica Philipp (@Louzula) from Potsdam University. They will explain how self-organised pattern formation supports #diversity in trophic #metacommunities.
It's going to be a hybrid seminar. Please let me know in case you would like to join, so I can forward the zoom link via DM!

Tomorrow (Thursday) at 4pm CET I’ll be giving a #seminar talk about the #ecology and #evolution of interaction #networks. Please say hi via DM in case you are interested, so I can forward the zoom link!

🚨 Heads up: today is abstract submission deadline for the @gfoe #conference #GFOE2025! 🚨
My team is planning to contribute 4 amazing talks about the #ecology and #evolution of interaction networks! Additionally, we are planning a little get-together for fellow modellers. So if you consider yourself a (statistical / individual-based / mathematical / whatever) modeller in ecology, then please reach out!!
