- Very interesting new preprint on detecting genome wide signatures of balancing selection (it’s hard, and we probably miss lots of them) www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

- Inspired in this iconic Guarda course, a group of four Latin American researchers organized the South American version: #EvoSur. The masterminds behind this amazing idea: Paco Majic (Uruguay) @hhydrochaerus.bsky.social, Santi Herrera (Colombia), Caua Westmann (Brasil) and Ana Maria Agapito (Perú).
- The 2026 Guarda Summer Course in Evolutionary Biology is now accepting applications. Amazing place, amazing course, amazing opportunity for early grad students. tb.ethz.ch/education/gu...

- PEEER stands behind the Stockholm Declaration, a call to rethink academic publishing in response to a global crisis marked by paywalls, predatory journals and paper mills—threats that undermine what was once a reliable foundation for social progress.

- Sorry to hear that Martin Parr has died. When he was documenting Oxford University he came out to Wytham Woods to photograph our team doing fieldwork - featuring @mcmahok.bsky.social & @lucymaplin.bsky.social as well as Fraser Bell & Ella Cole. The generally serious demeanour was at his request!

- Not sure our paper rocks as much as Katharina’s cover illustration, but we’re very delighted it was picked as ‘Editor’s Choice’ on @evolletters.bsky.social!
- Check out our cover article by @timjanicke.bsky.social and colleagues about the role of sexual selection in animal speciation. academic.oup.com/evlett/artic.... The beautiful illustration is by Katharina Bóth.
- Really looking forward to this symposium and the whole SMBE meeting! Join us at the #SMBE2026 for interesting discussions of how to identify signatures of natural selection (or try to) where it seems impossible.
- Are you working on detecting selection in populations that are not usually easy to get selection detected? We'd love to hear you on "S15 Detecting selection and local adaptation on (im)possible systems" where @aidaandres.bsky.social will tell you more about her work around this area as well :D
