Lydia Thompson

Today's @ucdagfood Pests, Parasites and Beneficials lecture was an insight into ongoing research on insects and agriculture... from @LydiaBThompson on agri-environment schemes to @jenniedurant on IPM. Here's @moffat_aisling reciting a poem about soil biodiversity! Thanks all

@evomics Hello, I just wanted to check because the website says the deadline for Population and Speciation Genomics is the 13th? Are they both the 18th or just the Genomics workshop?

Today was one of those fieldwork days that reminds me why I love what I do. Not as many samples as we'd hoped, but beautiful high-quality grasslands in stunning locations! And of course @LydiaBThompson for great company! #academiclife @GYB_Project @LIFEonMachair

Congratulations @LydiaBThompson 🎉Fantastic @InjJournal prize for the best Natural History presentation on her research on the Great Yellow Bumblebee 🐝

Lydia Thompson from UCD was the winner of the INJ sponsored prize for the Best Natural History Presentation at Environ 2024, with her presentation Evaluating Agri-environmental Measures for Conserving Bumblebees. Find out more about her project at esaiweb.org/environ/studen…

@CIWEM @DCU @ciwmirl @teagasc @CIEEMnet @UCC Best Natural History Presentation (#INJ) to Lydia Thompson, @ucddublin; Best Organic Wastes Recycling Presentation (Foster Environmental Ltd.) to Shon Shiju, @MTU_ie; and Best Social Engagement Presentation (@ESAI_Environ) to Geraldine Doolan, @uniofgalway

What a great turnout for the Bees and Native Wildflowers Workshop with @SeanHort1! A huge thanks to @SeanHort1 for such an intriguing and informative #workshop and to those who attended and participated in some interesting #discussion/Q&As #wildflowers #bees #native

So grateful to have @EvaCraneTrust’s supporting the genomic component of my research!

@GYB_Project really looking forward to working with @LydiaBThompson on this exciting project to learn more about our rare great yellow bumblebee

First day of fieldwork training for @LydiaBThompson complete! Lydia will be working with @GYB_Project to look at population genetics for the Great Yellow Bumblebee as well as effectiveness of conservation measures. Working with @KarinaEcology, @aliialex_ and @julia_c_jones

Delighted to be working with @LydiaBThompson for the next four years on her @IrishResearch funded PhD on protecting rare and common bumblebees on Irish farmland at @ucdagfood @UCDEarth, in collaboration with @maher_steph. Welcome Lydia!
