Hi everybody!
Posts under the name of EvoEcoSex come from members of the Brooks and the Griffith lab at the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences, in short BEES, at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Sydney.
Both lab groups work on similar questions, relating to behavioural and evolutionary ecology of sexual reproduction and life histories. We use quantitative genetic analyses, behavioural observations and manipulative experiments to test hypotheses generated from sexual selection and life history theory. We are also interested in the biology of ageing, the evolution of sexual dimorphism, sex determination, genomic imprinting and of the Y chromosome, and the evolutionary consequences of inbreeding.

Thanks, Felix, for starting this. I just walked down the passage to the lab, as I do about 10 times a day, and looked at the same articles and crappy posters. I thought we could make those big poster boards into something that showcases evolutionary biology in some way. It could involve news articles or recent papers. I'm not talking about an extension to our Hall of Fame noticeboard. Rather something that raises the profile of the field in general. Any ideas? Anyone who wants to spend some time and energy making it work?
