Microbial communities can harbor many species that do not coexist in pairs, yet can coexist in the full community. Here we provide the mathematical foundations of emergent coexistence, and explain why it can't be predicted from pairwise tests journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol...
This is awesome news! Continue to make yourself heard on the topic. Contact your MPs, respond to the discussion paper.
For more info on the subject, read the formal response of the @csee-scee.bsky.social : csee-scee.ca/wp-content/u....
It was fun to work on this meta-analysis of resurrection studies involving plants with Lillie Pennington, Steven Franks, Jill Anderson, and @elenahamann.bsky.social! doi.org/10.1002/ajb2...
CSEE has submitted a formal response letter to the Government of Canada's Getting Major Projects Built in Canada - Discussion Paper to voice our concerns about the proposed changes to weaken Canada's environmental legislation and biodiversity obligations: csee-scee.ca/wp-content/u....
📢 New Research Alert!
No organism can be the best at everything—and now we know why. A new study by our own Dr. @jasonlaurich.bsky.social reveals the hidden limits shaping evolution itself: tinyurl.com/yc8j3434

The public consultation period for these proposals is only open until this Sunday, June 7th. We encourage all CSEE members and concerned Canadians to contact their MPs (www.ourcommons.ca/Members/en) & email the Privy Council Office ([email protected]) to express their concerns...
Excited to share our new paper in which we test how competition alters adaptation at a warming range edge @science.org
We find that competition can increase adaptation to warming when there is a shared evolutionary response to both biotic and abiotic drivers of selection:

New to bsky, trying to (re)connect with eco-evo folks. I'm an evolutionary ecologist who studies how rapid evolutionary dynamics shape community and ecosystem processes. My work integrates experimental evolution, population genetics, and community ecology, with an emphasis on biological invasions.

Most predictions of whether populations will adapt to warming range edges ignore species interactions. We experimentally tested whether range-edge populations can adapt to warming within a competitive...
Premise Global climate change has altered the eco-evolutionary trajectories of plant species, leading to observed shifts in phenotypes, such as earlier flowering. However, disentangling the contribu...
Publicly voicing our scientific concerns, along with the broader concerns by Canada's environmental, legal, and NGO community and First Nations, have made a difference.
The federal government has extended the public engagement period to 22 July 2026.
Please see: www.canada.ca/en/one-canad...
Impact assessments prevent harm before it occurs. Circumventing the process before we understand the risks is misguided and a gamble with our collective future.
Today, the Government of Canada announce the extension of the engagement period on proposed reforms to simplify and accelerate Canada’s regulatory process.
