Happy to present my poster at #ESEB2025 on eastern Baltic cod population (or populations?), preliminary results of one of the chapters from my PhD thesis.

Had a great time at #FSBI2025 symposium in Belfast☘️ My #FSBIGreenTravel attempt of Uppsala-Belfast train trip ended up in a great adventure and now I have a story to tell. Besides, I got on time and had the chance to give my talk about my research on early life Baltic cod🐟 and meet nice people.

🧪 New studies show paying peer reviewers ~$250 speeds up reviews by 1-33 days without affecting quality. One journal saw acceptance rates rise from 48% to 53%. #AcademicSky
Publishers trial paying peer reviewers — what did they find?
Two journals embarked on efforts to compensate reviewers, with different results.

First field season of my PhD studying Swedish sand lizards (Lacerta agilis) 🦎 My work investigates epigenetic response in immune challenge experiments. Plenty more cool projects: hormones and coloration, microbiomes, egg incubation temperatures, telomeres
