This collection of links is mainly for my own use. However, you may find some of them useful, interesting or simply entertaining as well. Furthermore, it provides me with an easy way to link to any other current and future online projects.

Our paper on how maternal effects contribute to male attractiveness in zebra finches was, amongst others, covered by COSMOS science magazine, ScienceDaily, BeobachterNatur (pdf, in German) and Tierwelt (in German).
Our paper on inbreeding depression in humans was covered in the Basler Zeitung (pdf, in German), Ticinonline (in Italian) and Les Quotidiennes (in French).
resources
Sometimes I produce something that may actually be useful to others. Furthermore, more and more journals ask authors to provide code or data as supplementary material. Although this probably is a good development, also R scripts evolve, and things that seemed like a good idea once, may turn out to be slow, buggy or user-unfriendly. I will therefore provide updated versions of R scripts associated with published papers on my own website.
All of this can be found here.
