Haven't talked a lot about it here... I am part of @gmtg-germany.bsky.social. In spring we sail again to break the illegal siege of Gaza. On Instagram we were able to grow the page from 0 to 56k followers. Now we will post our content here too. It would be lovely if some of you could give a follow 🤍
📣 Hot off the press at #ProcB!
🔍 Our study checked data/code-sharing policies in 275 eco/evo journals and compliance in Proc B (n=2,340) & Ecology Letters (n=571). Policies exist, but clarity and strictness vary, affecting reproducibility.

New in #ProcB - From policy to practice: Progress towards #data- and #code-sharing in ecology and evolution @asanchez-tojar.bsky.social @eivimeycook.bsky.social tell us more in our blog royalsociety.org/blog/2025/09...
📊 Less than half of Ecology & Evolution journals mandate data and/or code sharing. Policies exist, but big gaps remain.
We propose 7 steps for improvement, including:
✔️ clear and explicit policies
✔️ data and code sharing mandate at peer-review
✔️ monitoring compliance
🎉 Another paper out!! 🎉
In a @sortee.bsky.social led joint effort, we assessed data and code sharing in 275 Ecology & Evolution journals and the compliance rates in two journals with a mandate policy.
🎉 New paper out!! 🎉
The typically short-winged meadow grasshopper develops a long-winged dispersive morph at high rearing densities.

🚨IT IS TODAY!🚨
Join us in this workshop on how to write and document functions for R package development!
Register here: www.meetup.com/rladies-colo...
Very excited for this series! 🚀
We’ll be collaboratively building R packages and submitting them to CRAN. This is our first hands-on session, so you have plenty of time to hop on board! 🛶
Data come in many different formats and are used in many different ways, but in many cases, a checklist like this (along with good data documentation) can help you verify if a dataset is in a usable format for most general purposes.

And still be thankful for having that option, because it is not happening to us.
It is incredible (or incredibly sad) how we had to develop a skill of recomposing ourselves after witnessing horrendous scenes of athrocities happening in Palestine just so that we can go back to work instead of crying our eyes out for the rest of the day.
How can we reform science? I have some ideas. But I am not sure you’ll like them, because they don’t promise much. elevanth.org/blog/2025/07...
I think we will have to wait until the next generation of senior scientists to see the change happen...
A chic lady (in a French outfit) shows off her gallery: a plot, a hex sticker of a group she loves, and a how to guide with an homage to the penguin dataset. It says "Volunteer to be an R-Ladies curator" with the subtitle "Showcase what you love about R" as well as the link to it! All in dashing purple.
We're looking for more curators for the second half of 2025! Want to share your voice or know someone who should?

Welcome, Max!
Year two of gardening: the slugs have decided to share. We might get actual food this time!
🎉New paper out @jevbio.bsky.social 🎉
We show that unpredictability in escape behavior of a grasshopper species is partly heritable and may be linked to a boldness behavioral syndrome 🦗💨

New to data science with #RStats or need a refresher? I always recommend R for Data Science (r4ds.hadley.nz) – a free online book by @hadley.nz that takes you from importing data to statistical modeling in a gentle, beginner-friendly way. #datascience #rladies #r4ds
🚨 ESEB 2025, here we come! 🚨
We're thrilled to announce our symposium:
"Enhancing Diversity & Transparency in Ecology & Evolution: Reliable Practices for Research & Organizations" 🌍✨
Featuring invited speakers:
🔹 Dr. Malgorzata (Losia) Lagisz
🔹 Dr. Joel Pick
📅 Aug 17-22, 2025 | 📍 Barcelona, Spain
I have always been proud to be part of @rladies.org, now even more 💜
Wow.
"56 laboratories performed 143 replications of 56 experiments; 96 replications of 47 experiments were considered valid [...] Replication rates for these experiments varied between 15 & 45% according to five predefined criteria [...] effect sizes were 60% larger in original experiments"
Nothing excites me more (at work) than writing R packages... I wish I could work full time with that. Anyone has an idea where I could find such a job? 😅
We're reproducing research on:
🧠 Boredom & memory
📊 Bayes & sample size
🧬 Wastewater viromics
⚙️ Input-output DMD
🕐 Register by April 30

Hi Could you add me? I am currently organizing a series of workshops on reproducibility tools for R
