🌴Our new paper just came out! We show that the Cape Verde date palm is actually a feral form of date palm, with interesting implications for conservation and breeding of drought resistant varieties. Read more: nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pp… @muriel_grosb @LatinOrchidBot @Metallophyte

These findings align with earlier work by Sonia Sarmiento-Cabello and Pedro Sosa et. al - great to see independent studies converging! Read their study here: mdpi.com/2223-7747/13/1…

With me, @AmyEllison_UK, Brian Gratwicke, Louise Barwell, @Lancaster_LT & @BocediGreta. @MEEBangor @BangorSENS @NationalZoo @UK_CEH @UoABioSci

We’re recruiting for a #PhD opportunity funded by NERC Envision DTP, investigating the impact of climate change on chytrid disease dynamics in Appalachian salamanders. Full details here: findaphd.com/?pj=182328

@MEEBangor @BangorUni @NERCscience @TheFSBI @BESaquaticgroup Also sharing the above opportunity with #UKDNAWG team!

@MEEBangor @BangorUni are recruiting for #PhD opportunity funded by @NERCscience investigating novel ways to identify #salmonid diseases in #freshwater ecosystems using #eDNA - closing date 7th Jan, full details here: findaphd.com/?pj=176410 @TheFSBI @BESaquaticgroup

North Wales #eDNA #LeDNA sample should now be with @CatiaALPereira @alpineedna and big thanks to @BangorSENS team @svenjatidau @anna_r_wood Sara Maggini for help on a beautiful sampling trip to #Snowdonia - Good luck with the library preps and thanks for including @MEEBangor !

@JELittlefair @UCLCBER @UCLEast Amazing achievement here @JELittlefair, well done and look forwards to finding out more!

Thank you to #UKRIFLF for supporting me with the Future Leaders Fellowship where I'll be investigating new technologies of airborne #eDNA for biomonitoring across the globe @UCLCBER @UCLEast Let's do this!

Another week, another #sDiv workshop @idiv (hybrid, mixed in person and online). This time, we have #sCom here to meld ‘big’ community data streams (i.e., eDNA) with jSDMs and related tools. Co-led by @florianhartig and @insectsoup. I have a LOT to learn!

Just uploaded my talk ready for the #FSBI2024 symposium in Bilbao next week! A leisurely 5 hours before the deadline, as well! I am looking forward to being immersed in omics, fish and Bilbao for a week, with what has to be one of the warmest conference crowds around.

@MEEBangor #MScRes 2024-25 studentship, now fully-funded using #eDNA approaches to illuminate vertebrate diversity from invertebrate samples as part of @SUPERB_project - forest restoration ecology, close 30th June #UKDNAWG24 @BangorSENS @BangorBioZoo meeb.bangor.ac.uk/opportunities.…
