🔊Open call! Are you researching #biodiversity #conservation or investigating how sustainably managed species contribute to the bioeconomy? Check this new Biodiversity Genomics Europe (BGE) call that aims to boost ongoing case studies in biodiversity genomics across #Europe erga-biodiversity.eu/post/open-call…

We're honored here at EBP to have Project Psyche with us as Affiliated Project of the Week! #biodiversity #conservation #butterflies #moths #womeninstem #genomics


#ENVI | Nature restoration law The EU Council has formally adopted the nature restoration law. It sets specific legally binding targets and obligations to restore nature 🌳🦋🐦⬛ #NRL Read the press release 👇


Say hello to the large blue butterfly. This butterfly has had its genome sequenced by the Wellcome Sanger Institute. It went extinct in the UK in 1979 due to habitat loss, was reintroduced and now is thriving w/ careful management thanks to experts. 🦋 Insect Week #InsectWeek Royal Entomological Society


Happy to share our press release (in French) from Université Neuchâtel! We propose a new 3D genomics view to help understand species diversification 🧬🌱🦋 with Ashwini V Mohan ಅಶ್ವಿನಿ 🦎🧬🙋🏾♀️ Paula Escuer Kay Lucek -> The press release: bit.ly/4cHOdzn -> The paper: bit.ly/4cHycd3

Genomic tools allow precise estimation of population declines and potential for adaptation, which can be used for insect monitoring, restoration and conservation management. Irena and colleagues published an outlook aimed at practitioners in Czechia: casopis.ochranaprirody.cz/vyzkum-a-dokum…

If you missed the Genome Applications Symposium, watch it online! Especially the Genomics of Adaptation session where we start from our Biodiversity Genomics Europe (BGE) Case Study to spur an engaging discussion 🦋🏔️🧬
