My lab members made this super cool video showcasing snippets of what we do in our BioGeoSys lab! It's so addictive! I can't stop watching it and be proud of all the lab members, past and present @SBSNISER #LabKeBacche #BIOGEOSYS

Phylo workshop at IISER Berhampur!

Mr. Bikash Sahoo, a researcher from @SBSNISER has successfully defended his doctoral thesis “Phylogeny, divergence time estimation and biogeography of Army ant genus Aenictus Shuckard, 1840 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Dorylinae)", carried out under the guidance of @skinkomaniac.

Authors who are publishing an article with us are now able to submit a Plain Language Summary to be shared alongside their study! 💬 These short-form pieces are aimed at making research accessible to a wider audience, & will be free to read🔖 More info👇 https://t.co/BkZToWz0lR

Tree crickets chew holes in leaves, making megaphones or "baffles" to attract mates. I am studying the evolution of baffling in my PhD. A bit of phylogenetics, a bit of citizen science. Follow the link to my new project on @inaturalist

Thank you to the Maxwell-Hanrahan Foundation for this Award, and to the anonymous person who nominated me and dropped this award, unexpected, in my lap. Only five of these awards are made each year from among nominations from around the globe.

ISEB (@india_evolution) comes to Odisha this year! Excited to announce that @maitreyasil and I are hosting a one-day pre-conference workshop on phylogenetics. If you're attending #ISEB2025, don’t miss it—limited seats! Apply soon! Please RT and spread the word for people who may

ISEB in Odisha this time! Check this out and wait for the full program to be announced! We have some awesome talks lined up!

And a long pending dream project took its first baby steps. https://t.co/5o50g7XgGU @niser_official

So cool!

We're excited to host ANRF–National Postdoc applicants interested in evolution at macroevolutionary or population genomic scales. Explore our work and ongoing projects: https://t.co/88GPGhg9Ml PDF application details: https://t.co/jzgv7BOgBe #Evolution #Postdoc #Genomics

We are looking for a project assistant who is interested in working on ants and their evolution. The application deadline is June 5th. Visit the webpage for more information.

I'm thrilled to share the first publication of my PhD! In this work, we attempted to understand the biogeographic origins, dispersal routes, and major diversification centres of the speciose and widespread house geckos (Genus: Hemidactylus) Cont 1/4

This is an amazing opportunity!

It's a shark! The new species, called Pararhincodon torquis, used to swim in the subtropical seas that covered England. Find out how it was discovered👇 (2/7) https://t.co/wIFHPYe3ap

Wonderful to see this collaborative effort published in @AnnualReviews Ecology, Evolution & Systematics, where we compiled the recent progress and highlighted emerging questions in Immunology from an evolutionary and ecological standpoint. https://t.co/wCVJUp1LYx

(1/4) New publication alert!!! Certain species of snakes have prominent heat-sensing pits on their face, like this gorgeous Green tree python! But under what circumstances do these pits evolve? And what benefit do they provide? Photo credit - @DamienEsquerre
