Join @uni_mainz 🇩🇪for a PhD project on the mechanisms of sex determination in ants 🐜 with @miya_qpan @ketting_rene @KellerValsecchi Multiple PhD positions available through the genevo-rtg.de consortium. #MolecularBiology #EvolutionaryBiology Deadline 15th July!


We are out in the Alps for the annual excursion with our students @uni_mainz_eng looking at plant-insect interactions and plant diversity! So much enthusiasm and fun!

Researchers at @uni_mainz and @unil have investigated the molecular mechanisms responsible for determining sex in Argentine #ants and were able to identify a noncoding gene as the deciding factor press.uni-mainz.de/determining-se… #EvolutionaryBiology #biology #insects @ScienceAdvances

Forschende von #UniMainz und @unil haben die molekularen Mechanismen untersucht, die der Geschlechtsdetermination bei Argentinischen #Ameisen zugrunde liegen, und führen sie auf ein nichtcodierendes Gen zurück presse.uni-mainz.de/geschlechtsdet… #Evolutionsbiologie

Ant sex!🐜🧬 @miya_qpan's first ant paper marks the beginning of her journey into the mysteries of haplodiploidy in ants. I am ready to be surprised by what comes next!

🤩Excited to share our new paper in @ScienceAdvances 🐜 ! We describe a new molecular mechanism underlying complementary sex determination in the Argentine ant 🐜, involving a long non-coding RNA that we named ANTSR :) 🐜 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Our crew is hunting for ants in upstate NY right now! Having great time in collecting acorn ants and their social parasites 🐜🍁

The new call at @uni_mainz_eng for fourteen new PhD students is open! You = one of them? We offer funding & a really cool environment for studying evolution, epigenetics, sex determination etc, often combining theory and molecular tools. Browse genevo-rtg.de/application/pr… and apply!
