I know you are not supposed to have favourites, but this paper I am especially proud of. Linking #geneexpression and #phenotypic change with transgenerational warming. #longtimeinthemaking #oceanwarming #teamwork #Coralreefs #fishsci @CoralCoE @JCUMARFU @jcu

Our review on marine epifauna is now on OMBAR! In this review, we offer a consensus-based definition of marine epifauna as an aid for unifying different research areas. We also highlight the their significance of underpinning marine ecosystem functioning. @gedgar33 @DrRebeccafox

Imagine if all of our academic institutions placed as much value on kindness, inclusivity, and integrity as they do on grants, papers, and awards. The culture will change when the reward system changes.

It turns out older males are more stud than dud when it comes to reproducing…at least for one type of fish! 💕🐟 But what do frisky fish tell us about the bigger picture? #ANUExpert @UpamaAich has the answers. 📖 https://t.co/0SGB9fZ25Y

Mixing up your cockatoos and fish might explain a lot about why the @Mikejennions J-lab always gets non-significant results?? Congrats @UpamaAich on breaking the curse!
Delighted to see this paper in @RSocPublishing out today with @UpamaAich @megabugface and @DrRebeccafox. Well done Upama! Perhaps giving hope to older males…. https://t.co/iYQUlaQLxe OK, the paper is on fish sex, but these are cockatoos mating outside my office! Close enough.

Quantifying the costs of pre- and postcopulatory traits for males: Evidence that costs of ejaculation are minor relative to mating effort https://t.co/9k1oqZ09lN New on @EvolLetters EarlyView by @MengHanJosephC1 @Mikejennions @DrRebeccafox #reproduction #sperm #evolution

Ever wondered how to mate, but prevent ejaculation? A tantric study by @MengHanJosephC1 and @DrRebeccafox uses a clever experiment to tease apart pre and post-copulatory costs of sex.
Congrats to @EcoEvo_ANU @Mikejennions PhD student @MengHanJosephC1 on his marathon research effort to tease apart the costs of sperm production relative to those involved in chasing down the ladies: https://t.co/vctUM9zM3a Spoiler: if you can catch the girl, you may as well mate!

Interventions to help iconic species cope with climate change are common, but not reported consistently, and designed intervention experiments (e.g. BACI) are rare. We must share lessons - negative results too. PhD study by @clairejmason, with @icetempete, Rachel Alderman and me.
