New paper out in Biotropica: A survey of ATBC reveals that scientific societies play a key role in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion 🌍🌿 – especially benefiting underrepresented groups 🌈👩‍🔬 #DEI #ATBC #DiversityInScience Full article 👇 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bt…

We have had requests for instructions on how to make an airborne #eDNA sampler. Here is a video and designs are available on the lab page linked in the video description. This is our "beeSafe" #beeDNA collection model. #environmentalDNA youtu.be/DHHR5Cg5dUE?si…

An exciting #outreach event with自然教室 Nature Classroom, Penang, Malaysia, led by #teelab Asian School Of The Environment NTU Singapore Dr Eleanor Slade @eleslade.bsky.social exploring the fascinating world of #dungbeetles! We had fun and inspiring moment with interactive learning and quizzes! #insects teelabntu.wixsite.com/home/post/natu…

Study led by Sean Yap & Toh KaiXin - Resource availability & parental provisioning influences male reproductive traits in tropical Onthophagus #dungbeetles. What began as an undergrad project morphed into a full sib experiment 💪🏾#reprolabnus onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

The irony of academia: preaching about diversity and inclusion while maintaining a system that favors the privileged and excludes the marginalized.

Conservation journals that prioritise research that transcends particular ecosystems or species may not be publishing science with the most impact. Managers and decision-makers need science that can be easily applied to the issues that they face conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/co…

This 👇 When are universities going to realise that IF is not everything. We also need to recognise the importance of low IF or no IF publications & the tremendous impact & value these hold in the real world outside of our ivory towers!! #scienceimpact #wearemorethanimpactfactors

Natural history #collections are more important than ever. We can't understand #biodiversity without them natureconservation.pensoft.net/article/132036/

🚀 BOLDigger3 is live! After BOLD Systems’ upgrade to v5, we rewrote BOLDigger from the ground up to match the changes. Now, taxonomic assignment is no longer the bottleneck in metabarcoding analysis. github.com/DominikBuchner… #metabarcoding #BOLD #BOLDigger3 Florian Leese

Today our paper was published on the decline of taxonomic expertise, using the example of Hungary, based on several lines of evidence. It is open access in Biodiversity and Conservation. doi.org/10.1007/s10531…

#EarlyView👀 80% of insect species are yet to be discovered and named; most are smaller, less abundant, found at fewer locations and often in taxonomically complex groups, than named species #OpenAccess #OriginalArticle⬇️ doi.org/10.1111/icad.1… @Royentsoc Wiley Ecology & Evolution

I've just explored the brand-new tidyplots package in R, and it’s impressive how effortlessly it enables you to create beautiful, publication-ready plots. Designed with scientific papers in mind, tidyplots lets you build, adjust, and refine plot components gradually, all with a

Our peat grant has ended but little is known about #peatland #inverts so we still have a lot of work to do identifying our samples.

My entire team wrote an opinion paper about Common misconceptions of speciation research. Each section is written by 1-2 team members. The bulk of the writing happened during two writing retreats. It was a lot of fun and I am very happy with the result. academic.oup.com/evolinnean/art…
