New species named after me! Great honor! Thanks @Bruce Patterson. Systematics of the Rhinolophus landeri complex, with evidence for 3 additional Afrotropical bat species academic.oup.com/jmammal/articl…

Proud to be part of this fantastic work! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…

Almost 800 samples ready for sequencing with help of @BatConIntl scholarship 🙌🏼. Months of work in tiny little volumes of liquid… from catching 🦇 in Zambia and Ghana, to extracting DNA from samples 🧬, amplifying mitochondrial markers, to preparing products 😮‍💨. Off they go🤞🏽

If you go down to the woods today.... Feeling increadibly lucky to have spent an hour quietly watching this Andean (spectacled) bear eating its favourite fruit. @FundMaquipucuna #Ecuador @BearTrust #bears

Finally, my PhD journey came to an end. It was a pleasure to defend the role of #wetlands for #batconservation even in #winter. But, this PhD could not have been possible without my supervisors @adria_baucells, @CarlesFlaquer & Hugo Rebelo, and the amazing team of @Ratpenats_Cat

The 5th B Chromosome Conference, organized by the @IbissBg and the Serbian Genetic Society, took place in @iPetnica, 14-17 October 2023. We spent four successful days together, exchanging ideas and achievements in B chromosome and germline restricted chromosome (GRC) research.

Finally!!!! I am glad to invite everyone to the upcoming European Bat Research Symposium in Tarragona (Spain) during the first week of September, 2024. Bats, bats and more bats! The conference of the year, in an extraordinary city, on the Mediterranean coast! See you there ;)

📍@IUCNRedList workshop this weekend. A huge milestone in the collaborative road ahead to continuously assess the conservation status of African bat species 🦇 . Thank you @MonadjemAra @DaveWaldien @TiggaKingston @GlobalBatNet @ruffordgrants

Another #Nipah outbreak. #Bats again in the line of fire. Let's recall that we've been sharing space w/ bats for centuries. Let's find out where the interface betn bats & humans was breached and come up with solid mitigation measures. Killing or culling bats won't solve problems

Here we go! First day of the IUCN #RedList workshop in Namibia to assess African #bats 🦇🦇 @blondezoologist @TuneuCarme @ivanabudinski @MonadjemAra @CmMontauban @IroroTanshi @KibiwotSospeter @JulesAtagana @Paul_Webala @ruffordgrants @GlobalBatNet @PeterJohnTaylo3

First desert experience in Namibia before attending the #IUCN Red List workshop and the 14th African Small Mammal #Symposium! Ver much looking forward to all of it! 🦇🏜️🦇🏜️ #phdlife #BatConservation

3rd day Balkan tour at Petrovaradin catacombs in Serbia 🇷🇸 Wonderful how these historical military catacombs serve the bats now. We found 8 🦇 species here during our work

In the case you don't like twitter🧵s (☝️), @MongabayOrg did a press release about our recent article just for you 🦇. I know my opinion is bias, but it's worth 100% your time! news.mongabay.com/2023/08/study-… @Tropibio21 @CIBIO_InBIO @UPorto @__Biodiversity @CrinanJarrett @LukeLPowell

@VannKenobi @slepokuce @IbissBg Poštovani, da li je slepi miš zbrinut? (javlja se "dadilja")

@slepokuce @ivanabudinski @IbissBg joj kakav je 😍😍😍

I hit my 3000 day streak on @duolingo Thank you for making education free, fun and available to everyone #Duolingo #DuolingoStreakSociety #LanguageLearning #LearnSpanish

Around 80% of African bat species are insectivorous, and @CmMontauban found that many of them consume agricultural pests and disease vectors in Ghana and Zambia. Many shared fieldwork adventures collecting this data 🦇💩🐜

European bats consume a lot of insect pest species. Excellent presentation @matavca at #ICCB2023

Interested in #forestloss effects on #bats and their pest consumption in Ghana & Zambia? I will be presenting at #ICCB2023 tomorrow (Thursday) at 4:30pm in MH1 and would love to chat after. So thankful to @BritishEcolSoc & @BatConIntl for the support to be here!
