Happy to announce that I will be starting a new job next week as a Senior Consultant with Deloitte, Australia. This is a big career and life move for me but I am excited to be joining a cool team of people working on the application of machine learning to supply chain risk 1/4

Our paper on division of labour, group structure, and efficiency benefits is now out in the @eLife journal format and with a new, trimmer title: "The evolution of division of labour in structured and unstructured groups"

Why is coordination used to divide labour efficiently in some species, whereas groups divide labour with random/independent specialisation in other species? We did the maths in our paper now out in @NatureComms with @PapilioMing, @StuWest8 & @jorgeapenas

Really nice (& short) piece! Conceptual summary and historical context for our recent paper on group structure in the evolution of division of labour (also with @PapilioMing and Hadleigh Frost). Cheers @RolfsMicrobes and @insect_microbe !

Thanks to the organisers for a really interesting conference with lots of cool talks! #AUSEVO2021 #AES2021 I am particularly impressed by the cross-media tie-in in the Age today! @AustEvolSoc
