Excited to soon start my new role as Academy of Finland Research Fellow 🦋🐛I’ll later be advertising a PhD position on tiger moth colour and genomics, and will be speaking at #ESEB2025 this week if you want an idea of what’s going on!
New paper now out! Wing colouration in female wood tiger moths can be an honest signal of chemical defence, but only under specific conditions besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... @biobiiana.bsky.social @jmappes.bsky.social @crisottocento.bsky.social
✴️ NEW PAPER! ✴️ In the beautiful Caucasian mountains of 🇬🇪 lives a moth whose wing colour variation (🔴🟠🟡) has intrigued us for ages. Here (doi.org/10.1111/1744...), we studied whether such variation is associated with 🧬 structure or other traits such as size. (1/3)
Crazy #moth season is here again, thanks to the loving hands of @almaoksanen.bsky.social
First adults from the overwintered generation are eclosing and start laying eggs. Exciting times ahead! Aren’t they gorgeous !? 😍@helsinki.fi @aplantaginis.bsky.social #Viikki
Always bittersweet when a brilliant postdoc leaves the lab @aplantaginis.bsky.social . It would be even sadder if they didn’t move on—but still, we miss you terribly already, Cristina! Good luck for your new position! They are so lucky to have you. 💛 Go shine! #academiclife #postdocfarewell
A great LUOVA Spring Symposium! Presented the preliminary results from an ongoing experiment. @helsinki.fi @aplantaginis.bsky.social
Excited to kick off my PhD at the @helsinki.fi with a talk about my doctoral research plans at the 34th LUOVA Spring Symposium
