Last November, I gave an online talk at the MINT Lab in Murcia about my dissertation project. You can read about it in this nice blog post: www.um.es/mintlab/inde...
Thanks @luciacneco.bsky.social for the invitation and thanks to the group for their interesting questions and comments! 😊🌱

Best thing I learned today: There is a character in the DC comics that is called "Animal-Vegetable-Mineral Man"! He can change any part of his body into animal, vegetable, or mineral forms. And "[i]n most appearances, he possesses extensive knowledge of biology" (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal-...).
This semester, we will be reading selected chapters from "Everything flows", edited by @djnicholson.bsky.social and John Dupré in our Reading Group. All interested are welcome to join us at @ruhr-uni-bochum.de (room NDEF04/346). If needed, we can also arrange hybrid meetings.
