Check out this amazing session 😊👇 at #OSM26
Super excited to share this new paper in Ecology, where we explore the bioenergetic trade-offs of mammalian trophic interactions and resulting selective pressures on size evolution across the Cenozoic 🦣🐅

Excited for #same18 kicking off! 🎉 Looking forward to great science & discussions with all of you guys!
If you’re interested in the sweet breath of bacteria come check out my poster tomorrow/Monday evening- would love to chat:)
Body size constrains trophic interactions, shaping the feasibility of species' populations. Over macroevolutionary timescales, these constraints feed back to shape selection on body size and diet. We...

If you like matrices + microbes, have I got the paper for you. Work with @janamassing.bsky.social, @jdyeakel.bsky.social, and @thilogross.bsky.social out today in @royalsocietypublishing.org! We study dynamics of cooperative bacteria without specifying a conventional model: doi.org/10.1098/rsif...

Hey math and microbiology enthusiasts! 🧮🦠
If you’re curious about bacterial cross-feeding and want to see generalized modeling in action, this paper might be right up your alley.
Big thanks to @akfbio.bsky.social, @thilogross.bsky.social, @jdyeakel.bsky.social - I learned a ton from you all!
Abstract. Bacterial cooperation involves the exchange of metabolites, which can range from costless byproducts of metabolism to intentionally produced and

New paper with @mhab.bsky.social @jdyeakel.bsky.social and @thilogross.bsky.social out now in @pnas.org! We show when and why you can know something about an entire network, just by knowing the behavior of it's building blocks: doi.org/10.1073/pnas...

This was a fun generalized modelling project with @janamassing.bsky.social @akfbio.bsky.social and @jdyeakel.bsky.social. Bacteria really need generalized models to make the maths fit properly.
When studying a complex system, it is often useful to think of the system as a network
of interacting units. One can then ask if some properties of...
