Jeremy Fox has a new book out, 'The Ecology of Ecologists'. What's that about, and should you read it? (Quick answers: how ecology's chaos of approaches is a feature, not a bug; and YES.) scientistseessquirre... 🌍🧪
Congrats Dr Maull!
A lot of “network analysis” about the Epstein Files.
Nearly all of them missing the point: when a system operates under strong incentives for discretion, what gets documented is NOT a neutral sample of reality.
Results are conditional on what is observed!

Excited to share a new PhD thesis from my student and soon Dr @vmaull.bsky.social on synthetic ecosystems, preventing tipping points, and a new concept: emergent bioengineering. Very proud of this achievement, and thankful to @sfiscience.bsky.social, where many of these ideas came to life.
📣We will be back soon with a new series of online theory seminars!
As ever, free and open for all via Zoom. Follow us on here, or join our email list (iite.info/seminar-emai...) for details.

Do you REALLY need anything else to be convinced?
We didn’t think so.

I'm really happy to see this article being published!
I find it very intriguing that the topology of genotype networks, which reflects the exploration of the antigenic space, can alone be enough to explain seasonality in epidemic trajectories.
Una pena que la universidad no tenga un grado en bellas artes y tenga que hacer un vídeo con IA de estatuas sin pies ni manos...
🚨 What if evolution is the ”law”… and networks are the machines that do the work?
In this paper (just published) I try to formalize how living systems are non-equilibrium, information-processing, adaptive matter. With a great biological flavor! 🧪🌐🌍🧬🦠

New article out in Ecology Letters!
Developing a general math model, we show how cross-stage interactions modify the stability predicted by classic unstructured models.

hmm I concede. Let's say that we got a sweet point in the 00s, and right now we are at the other side of the curve, where finding "information" is quick, but the quality is worsening. Ex: searching for images and finding AI-generated ones
The amount of time and work needed back then still is small compared with the amount of time we *waste* on the byproducts of today’s Internet aka social networks and shitty AI web search‘s results
