Glæder I jer til #NaturMødet? Vi gør! I disse uger knokler vi få at få stablet en masse aktiviteter og debatter stablet på benene 🪳 ...Og en rødlistet fugl synger vist lidt om, at De Unge Biodiversitetsambassadører får sin egen stand sammen med Danmarks Vilde Natur i år? 🤞🤫#Dknatur Naturmødet

#Bees #eDNA #Flowers. Finally defended my master's thesis - and successfully no less! Thanks Philip Francis Thomsen. Have appreciated having you as my supervisor! It's been challenging, but also very fun and interesting! Andrena fulvago and some Thysanoptera in Pilosella officinarum

Messy science recipe: Collect 60 kg of fresh cow dung, mix well, put in bags of each 3 kg and place them outside. Collect samples over 50 days and perform #eDNA #metabarcoding. Then you get a detailed picture of the succession of dung fauna 💩🧬🪲🪰📈 doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…

Super excited to be on the New Species Podcast! If you haven't heard about 'my' new species yet, which is only known from Randers Regnskov in Denmark, then give this episode a listen! - Also, if you haven't listened to the podcast before, then go nuts - lots of great episodes!
