“I’ve always believed we should tread lightly on this Earth. We are only one part of who and what lives on this planet.” Susan Waldron, Natural Environment Research Council Director of Research and Skills, explores new research securing our rivers' future. More: orlo.uk/E9uBJ #UKRIVoices

Had a wonderful time presenting new COMMIOS isotope & DNA results for humans buried at Danebury Hillfort! Dr Laura Castells is doing a full osteo reassessment and SUERC will be doing AMS-dating! 🦴 Find out more at P3 or please find me and we can chat over ☕! #UKAS2024

#stableisotope study led by Olivia Bell with National Environmental Isotope Facility funding shows smaller dietary niche breadth of Tasmanian devils and sympatric spotted-tailed quolls with increasing human-modified habitat, but no effects with DFTD-related devil declines. doi.org/10.1007/s00442…

This year will have a session led by Dr Millie Bompard from SUERC on menstruation and fieldwork focusing on training, advice and experience from +100 women in science, and an exhibition of products. Sign up via: forms.office.com/e/W9LgKsxx8v

Off to SUERC to talk about how stable isotope analysis can help us improve ecological understanding (with a little help from Rummy)

“Who says doing a PhD has to be dull and boring?” Join UofG student Papali from Lesotho, who’s in the first year of her PhD in Geology, as she goes on a training course trip as part of her researcher development. #WeAreInternational UofG SciEng SUERC Universities UK International

Here at SCENE we would be very happy to host people interested in fish/aquatic/isotope ecology, food webs, avian ecology, invasion biology, (pre)historical ecology, restoration ecology (and much much more). See here for a nice video of SCENE youtube.com/watch?v=yAtFvL…

SCENE It is worth noting that not only are we at SCENE part of the powerhouse that is @UofG_SBOHVM but that we are also closely related to the isotope folks at SUERC Lots of amazing systems, equipment and questions waiting to be worked on. Very, very friendly people too!

We'd be happy to host anyone interested using stable isotopes to inform their ecology project. The following is a course description, but it gives you a good idea of the kind of things we do. gaea.ac.uk/about-the-stab… europa.eu/!6rhQWG

A fantastic time sampling the #pangolin specimens at the Discovery Museum , with Dan Gordon Great North Museum: Hancock , who gave us a delightful tour around the rest of the collection. Scales are being subsampled, ready for #stableisotopeanalysis - will talk more at the ATBC meeting

Fantastic time at the UofG Technical Conference earlier this week. Rounded off by winning the best poster competition. Congratulations to 14C lab staff Ian, Naima, Callum, Josanne and Chris. #UofGTechConf

A BIG thank-you to our SUERC #stableisotope lab technicians Andrew and Julie, who have retrofitted a secondhand Elementar IRMS Microcube to our old Thermo Fisher Delta XP, with new fittings and 3D-printed assembly. Great to see a 21-year old mass spec being put to good use.

For UK-based ecologists submitting a #stableisotopeecology application to National Environmental Isotope Facility please get in touch with your ideas - the next deadline will be 9th October 2024 stableisotopelab.com/people More details see isotopesuk.org/apply.html

A big thank-you to Rachel Petts McrMuseum Collection and all Manchester Museum for letting us sample the #pangolin collection for #stableisotope analysis. Also looking forward to the Elementar IRMS user meeting here tomorrow!

A great scheme - 12 JMS PhD Scholarships available for Black UK students below - If any potential candidates are interested in using stable isotopes for ecological and other applications, check out the kind of projects we do at stableisotopelab.com
