🚀🚀 Just published in #Oikos: *Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective* What if making Mars or other planet habitable means deliberately introducing Earth species? We explore this ultimate ecological experiment through the lens of #invasionscience (propagule pressure, boom-bust dynamics, secondary invasions, and the very real risks of unintended ecological surprises...) but on a #planetary scale. doi.org/10.1002/oik.11… w/ @TeunEverts @InvasionsPlant @FishInvasionLab @INVASBio @ESAinvasionecol @Invasivesnet @InvasiveSppEco @InvasiveAliens @InvasivesShow

@HaubrockPhillip @ismasoto Congrats, super soto @ismasoto

🎉 🎊 Warmest congratulations to my ex-PhD student @ismasoto ! 🎊🎉 I am incredibly proud to announce that Ismael has been awarded the XVII Premio de Investigación en Limnología (Iberian Award for Research in Limnology) for *the best doctoral thesis defended in 2025* . His thesis, "Long term trends and impacts in past and future biological invasions", was selected by the Asociación Ibérica de Limnología (AIL) from a very strong field of excellent candidates. This recognition is a wonderful acknowledgment of Ismaels hard work, scientific excellence, and important contributions to the field of invasion biology and limnology. A huge thank you to the jury and the AIL for this prestigious award, and my heartfelt congratulations also go to José and Xabi as well as their supervisors. Well done, Ismael, this is well deserved! 👏 #Limnology #InvasionBiology #PhD #PhDlife #postdoc #postdoclifr #Award #FreshwaterScience #science

New paper out in *Conservation Biology*. Biodiversity does not follow political borders — but conservation policy, funding, and data access still do. This mismatch fragments management and weakens conservation outcomes. conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/co…

Happy and proud to share my #PhD #student Neil Abreo @TrashTalkRes 2nd PhD-linked #publication on #biological #invasions in the #Philippines kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2… #PhDlife #invasivespecies #alien @Invasivesnet @CABI_Invasives

🚨 New paper altert 🚨 New review in BiologicalReviews: The #impacts of biological invasions. We synthesize nearly a century of evidence across taxa and #ecosystems to clarify what invasion impacts are, how they arise, and why they are so hard to assess. doi.org/10.1002/brv.70…

@ismasoto Congratulations, @ismasoto!

Honoured to reach 1,000 citations!!. Deep thanks to all my colleagues <3. Next aim: 10,000?. #InvasiveSpecies

New open-access review in #BiologicalReviews: The spread of #nonnative #species. While introductions are well studied, spread—the step that turns them into large-scale invasions—has lacked a cross-system synthesis. doi.org/10.1002/brv.70…

This work would not have been possible without the help of great colleagues like @TeunEverts and @ismasoto

🚨NEW PAPER ALERT🚨 Happy to announce that my #PhDstudent Neil @TrashTalkRes has published his #PhD s first #publication on biological #invasion s in the #Philippines and #SEAsia in @NeobiotaJournal Access here: neobiota.pensoft.net/article/156371/ #science #phdlife

and many othersA truly collaborative effort! w/@ismasoto @BalzaniParide @TrashTalkRes and many others

🚨New @Senckenberg research alert!🚨 We propose a holistic catchment-scale framework to tackle #floods and #droughts while boosting #biodiversity and human wellbeing.🚨 Read the full article here 👇 wires.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/wa… #ClimateResilience #FloodMitigation #DroughtSolutions

Invasive nonnative species were among the major threats discussed at the UN Biodiversity Conference COP16. Despite scientific evidence for urgent management, pop media & opinion pages of journals give voice to animal rights ideologues who seek to dismiss concern. Hence, a repost:

20 years after our first paper on microplastic pollution, the accumulated scientific evidence of harm science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… is is now echoed in an amazing 6 track album Microplastics @zoeblade

@ismasoto Congrats @ismasoto !

Just submitted my thesis! 🙈🎉 Fingers crossed for kind reviews...... :))

Applying for #grants and #funding with institutions like the @dfg_public and others is a pain in #academia. It's important and part of an #academics life in #Science, but it's #perverted and disadvantages many - especially #ERC s. Here is why I #believe this:

We are still looking for a PhD & MS student to work on inverts in Iceland! Please reach out to Dr. Benstead or Dr. Huryn to apply! 🧊

@ismasoto @GlobalChangeBio @HaubrockPhillip @ross_cuthbert @LaisCarneiro03 Congrats, Ismael!

🦞🦐 Non-native species threaten biodiversity, but... how do native species respond over time? ❗️Check it in our latest paper in @GlobalChangeBio : onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… Thanks to all: @HaubrockPhillip @ross_cuthbert @LaisCarneiro03 among others :)
