And part 2 of the blog post shows how we put these hackathon organisational tips into practice at the BES Data and Code hackathon in Sept 2025!

Can't recommend this position enough! Laura is a great researcher, mentor and friend, I would definitely apply if I were you!
Ever wondered what a hackathon is? I wrote this to accompany our paper on data- and code- sharing where all the data came from a hackathon... methodsblog.com/2026/04/09/t...
Paper: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
Happy to share that one of my PhD chapters is out now!
In this study, we investigated how geographic range size and body size influence abundance in reef fishes 🐠

Mata Atlântica não é só floresta úmida de baixada e tabuleiro. É Bioma bem mais complexo, e essa era uma ótima oportunidade pro órgão federal chamar atenção pra isso nessa notícia mas enfim, divago e sou apenas um ornitonóia.
Interested in #macroevolution, #macroecology, and mountain biodiversity?
I'm recruiting a #postdoc for an NSF-funded project at Yale, in collaboration with Martha Muñoz (Yale) and Maya Stokes (Florida State University).
I'll be at #Evol2026 and happy to chat!

~1 billion times the distance from Earth to the Sun.
That is approx the total length of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal hyphae in topsoils. These microscopic fungal networks form one of Earth’s circulatory systems moving carbon and nutrients.

não pessoal, as araras-vermelhas não estavam extintas há 200 anos na Mata Atlântica. A população icônica do Parque Estadual do Morro do Diabo também discorda. E eu tenho cada vez mais preguiça de sensacionalismo preguiçoso pra gerar clique. www.gov.br/ibama/pt-br/...
I am recruiting a #postdoc to work on assembling and analyzing #genomes of the amazing Furnariidae. Let’s unlock the secret behind their #evolution. The official application portal will be available soon at www.uno.edu/careers. Feel free to contact me for details at [email protected]
New study led by S. Llorente-Culebras on drivers of knowledge gaps in global mammal traits databases.
📊 Traits like diet & body mass are known for >97% of species, but reproductive traits for <17%.
🚨 Biggest gaps: data-deficient, recently described, range-restricted species far from major cities.
Post provided by Natalie Cooper, MEE Senior Editor In September 2025 we ran a hackathon to collect data for a paper on data- and code-sharing across the BES journals. After the event, we thought it…
Aim Knowledge gaps in biodiversity, particularly in species traits, can hinder an accurate understanding of species roles in ecosystems, limiting our comprehension of ecosystem functions, maintenanc...
