In two days we will hear about cutting edge #eDNA research from University of Oulu’s researchers as well as from collaborators and guest speakers from Finland and abroad! Follow in real time according to the schedule or participate in discussions at your own pace. #eDNAforScience

1/5 We are about to start University of Oulu ‘s Twitter conference “Emerging methods for environmental and archaeological studies: eDNA and aDNA”. Welcome to participate in this conference from anywhere in the world! 😊 #eDNAforScience #aDNAforScience #ForNature

10/11 Latest proof highlighting the power: Rainwash #eDNA #metabarcoding – a simple & cost-effective monitoring tool using rainwater. Immense potential to uncover biodiversity beyond rivers🧬🌧️🌲🌳🦋🐞🪳🐛 Macher et al. 2022 doi.org/10.1002/edn3.3…

1/10 Finnish Museum of Natural History = independent research institution under University of Helsinki. The collections, botanical, zoological, geological and paleontological specimens from all over the world, serve research in fields of biology and geology and also educational purposes.

A big thank you to all our followers and speakers from the organizing team @MiraKoski, Jouko Inkeröinen and Heidi Peuraniemi! Hopefully you got interesting insights to your work with #eDNAforScience and #aDNAforScience! Looking forward to continuing the discussions!

Lepakoita vaivaava valkokuonosyndrooma on eräs aikamme tuhoisimmista eläintaudeista. Anna Blomberg havaitsi väitöstutkimuksessaan, että Euroopassa yleinen lepakkolaji on tolerantti taudille. Suomessa tautia ei tavattu lepakoilla lainkaan. #väitös #biologia utu.fi/fi/ajankohtais…

Welcome to Luomus seminar to hear the talk by post doc Victoria Twort from @BatLabFinland! - Unlocking the past: What can aDNA tell us about Myotis evolutionary history. 📅 Wed Feb 22 ⏲️ 10:00 AM (EET) Zoom link: helsinki.zoom.us/j/64317185928?… Life Sciences University of Helsinki #aDNA #bats #Collections

Big @batsgoviral week! In PNASNews and Science Advances we test how to prevent zoonotic #spillover by interrupting virus transmission in bat reservoirs. Short story: culls didn’t reduce spillover but altered rabies spatial spread; transmissible vaccines may be a solution. A 🧵.

Only a few days to apply to this position in my group University of Helsinki OEB-ResPrg #Symbiosis #microbiota #Communities #insect

Habitat degradation is a lead cause of biodiversity erosion around the globe. But how does it affect the microbial community associated with species leaving in degraded habitats? We investigate this point in our latest preprint. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
