We are very happy to welcome Jules Macome as Visiting Fellow to the KLI. Jules is a PhD student at the Department of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Cambridge. His research focuses on the origins of life, particularly the application of evolutionary theory as a framework for explaining abiogenesis and its potential limitations. Jules will be a Visiting Fellow at the KLI from 7th to 31st March 2025.

We are delighted to welcome our new Writing-Up Fellow Nina Kraus to the KLI. Nina is currently working towards her PhD at the University of Vienna within the Vienna Doctoral School of Ecology and Evolution. Nina's research interest is in the realm of evolutionary medicine, specifically the evolutionary history of cardiogenesis and its implications for congenital heart diseases (CHD) in humans. Nina has studied and published her work on the development of the anuran heart for her her Master's thesis. Her PhD research explores how environmental factors influence the evolution and development of cardiac structures in humans. During her Fellowship at the KLI, from 1st March to 31st August 2025, Nina will be working on her project titled. “Environmental Drivers of Cardiac Evolution and Development”.

We are very happy to welcome our new Writing-Up Fellow Merin Joji to the KLI! Merin is currently pursuing her PhD degree from the University of Copenhagen, studying the intricate patterns of shell shape variation in fresh water turtles in India, and how these variations relate to both ecological and anthropogenic factors. At the KLI, Merin will be working on her project, “3D shell asymmetry as a monitoring tool for environmental stress in India’s freshwater turtles”, from 15 Feb to 14 August 2025.
Here’s wishing Merin a hearty welcome and a fruitful time at the KLI. (Click on the title to know more about Merin!)
