Spookiest horseshoe crab in the Midwest 🐎👠🦀 Happy Halloween !

Last full moon paddle of the season in Monona Bay. Complete with live music on the water and roasting marshmallows from a kayak. Gotta love Madison. 🍫🌕

A year-long project where I painted a watercolour cat every month. A reason to keep painting, a reason to keep creating. Inspired by travel, friendships, learning, and death.

September cat, the last cat, emerges from a time of grief and reflection. 🐈‍⬛ ❤️

Local adaptation? Coevolution? There are some really interesting dynamics at play here that I can't wait to sink my teeth into. I am currently waiting on some funding decisions, but if this sounds fun or cool or anything in between please reach out! (3/3) Thank you so much to the organizers!

At the Hite Lab (UW Madison, USA) we find that hosts are castrated by parasitic tapeworms and the exposed females maximise their terminal investment. These effects are both sex and strain specific giving rise to super cool implications for infection and population dynamics (2/n)

@eseb2025.bsky.social has been such a blast! I presented during the "Evolution of biotic interactions across biotic scales" about host fitness consequences in response to parasitic interactions (1/n)

Also per my personal tradition, I got away with yet another fun Acknowledgements section. Which is really what it's all about. If reading a methods paper isn't exciting you, I'm always pumped to give a lay summary on my website: chloefouilloux.com/2025/06/13/w... (3/3) 👨‍🎤🎸

🚨New paper alert!🚨

Tapeworms don’t just appear inside fish or birds. They travel there. Our latest paper tracks the first step of that journey: detecting parasites in first-intermediate hosts when they are rare + microscopic. We also developed primers/probes to detect parasites across taxa! (1/3)
