Hi twitter friends! You may know that sometimes I collect donations to buy things ⬇️ for the Kremenets battalion 🇺🇦, which is protecting the eastern front of Ukraine & which includes my relatives & schoolmates. Now they need help again (1/3)

Help a fellow scientist to help friends and relatives. Direct way to help Ukraine. // Jälleen tarjolla suora ja luotettava tapa tukea Ukrainaa, tutun kollegan kautta drone-osia suoraan rintamalle. Laitan itse, tehkää perässä tai jakakaa. 🇫🇮🤝🇺🇦

I will soon recruit a post-doc to work on the mechanisms of social learning & cultural evolution. Get in touch if you are ambitious, computationally minded, and interested in behavioral experiments, modeling, simulation, and/or brain-imaging! ESLR Society Cultural Evolution Society

Huomenta. Hyvä aamu osallistua dronetalkoisiin ja auttaa Ukrainaa kaikista suorimmalla tavalla. Oleg on yliopistolta tuttu eli luotettava tapa lähettää apua. Voitte myös jakaa tämän tai ao. twiitin.
