- Incredibly honoured and happy to have been awarded a consolidator grant from the ERC! This grant will expand my group and fund my research at @biologylu.bsky.social for five years, and focus on different factors that disrupt animal migration at large scales 🦅🦋🌍🧲💡🌡️. Exciting times ahead!
- Reposted by Cecilia NilssonInterested in #RaptorResearch and #MovementEcology? 🧪 The #AnimalEcology Lab at @utu.fi has an open #PhDposition! We’ll be tagging WTEs with cutting-edge #GPS devices to study their early-life journeys. Curious to learn more? See the advert: shorturl.at/HMZ84 #PhDOpening #PhDChat #BioLogging

- Reposted by Cecilia NilssonHow many #birds are killed by #cats in Canada? Between 19-197 million! This is the main result from my first chapter of my PhD thesis just published in Avian Conservation and Ecology. ace-eco.org/vol20/iss2/a... @gowelizabeth.bsky.social @ryannorrissci.bsky.social 1/6
- Reposted by Cecilia NilssonWe’re hiring a doctoral researcher in the area of migration ecology. The work will focus on the question of how and when migratory songbirds learn where their home is using #Motus.

- Fully funded PhD working on insectivorous bird declines with a broad range of stakeholders. Starting ASAP #ornithology #zoology #biodiversity #science #ecology www.exeter.ac.uk/study/fundin...
- Reposted by Cecilia NilssonWe are seeking an ornithologist/modeller for a 2-year POST-DOC in Turin. Using archaeological remains, we will reconstruct past avian communities to understand the impacts of climate change and human pressure on birds through time. For details see cutt.ly/irN76QDZ PLEASE RT. #ornithology #AviArch

- Reposted by Cecilia NilssonThis is definitely one of those papers that goes in the, 'hm, I never really thought of it that way' category. I love these 'simple' but somehow mind shifting papers. And it's probably more relevant to my own niches than I had previously considered. Cool!

- Are animals randomly distributed in the air, or is there a structure to where and when we find them? In our new paper we outline factors that shape habitat use in the air, from abiotic structure to biotic interactions. A lot of fun discussions behind this one! 🦅🦋🦇🌬 www.cell.com/trends/ecolo...

- Reposted by Cecilia NilssonI am looking for a postdoc wanting to use functional genomics to understand why birds 🐦 struggle with climate warming in @erc.europa.eu project #HotLife. Ideal candidate is a molecular evolutionarybiologist. Join us at @biologylu.bsky.social. Details 👇 shorturl.at/wijEq Would appreciate a re-post!

- Our PhD level course Ecology of Animal Migration at @biologylu.bsky.social is now open for applications! The course will run this November (3-14th) and cover various theoretical and practical aspects of migration ecology. See: www.biology.lu.se/phd-studies/...
- Reposted by Cecilia NilssonAnother birding paper! 🐦 Where do the Nearctic landbirds that show up in Europe each autumn come from? We usually assume they come from NE populations, pushed off course by bad weather - but is that the whole story? #ornithology 1/3 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

- Weather radars continuously register the movements of billions of animals in the air! We have now published datasets covering large parts of Europe, providing an overview of the aerial habitat in a way no other method can. Data is available on Alofdata.eu , see our blogpost: go.nature.com/3F0wQ0L
