We are excited to announce the SMBE Fellows Program! ✍️

Designed to provide networking and mentorship opportunities to early-career researchers through scientific writing in evolutionary biology for @molbioevol.bsky.social and @genomebiolevol.bsky.social

📆 Aug. 31

Want to get involved with the SMBE IDEA/ Non-Parachute Science/ Outreach? Check out our webpages, and join us! 2- or 3-year term, ~1 day/month + Award proposal reviews 1x/year, Open to SMBE members. www.smbe.org/call-for-new...

Huge thanks to @epifaniaarango.bsky.social and @cegamorim.bsky.social for organising the @smbe-idea.bsky.social symposium at #smbe2025, and all the participants for their thought provoking talks and discussion. Many interesting points raised! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Mehmet Somel up next in the @smbe-idea.bsky.social symposium at #smbe2025 talking about the brain drain in science and helicopter research- the use of a helicopter index is genious!

Miren Iraeta-Orbegozo speaking on Human Ancient DNA, Ancestry, & Mobility next in the @smbe-idea.bsky.social symposium #smbe2025

Next up in the @smbe-idea.bsky.social symposium is Matteo Fumagalli #smbe2025

The @smbe-idea.bsky.social symposium at #smbe2025 has kicked off! Join us in room 1!
Nussaibah Raja-Schoob shares her experiences of DEI in research…

Impressive set of talks in the TE session at #smbe2025 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks to all the speakers for an informative session!

@rokofler.bsky.social talks about the spread of TEs in drosophila over time - are humans responsible?? #smbe2025

Lungfish sound fascinating! Axel Meyers talk on lungfish genome expansion, courtesy of 3Gb of TEs! #smbe2025

Great talk by @gonzalezlabbcn.bsky.social kicking of the TE session at #smbe2025!

@charlesmichie.bsky.social poster shows how endogenous retroviruses can aid in species identification- check out his poster! #smbe2025

Interested in endogenous retroviruses? Check out @hayleybethfree.bsky.social poster on novel ERVs in Anurans! #smbe2025

If you're at #SMBE2025 in Beijing this year, check out Symposium 35: Open symposium session E where my supervisor @ravinderkanda.bsky.social will be talking about some of our research on #transposableelement diversity in frogs and toads 🐸🧬
