MSc’s student #Aleksi today presented his on going work on the gut microbiota of #AtlanticSalmon and potential links to diet and #maturation well done Aleksi! #ISEE

Kicking off day 3 of the Symposium in the best way possible! With ☕️☕️☕️

Megha Khanduri presents on consequences of light pollution for threatened species of the Ganga River Basin, India, focussing on a gharial and turtles! Light doesn’t appear to influence nesting site selection in these species, but does affect gharial thermoregulatory behaviour

Geethanjali Mariaselvam tells us about what the black bucks and Bishnoi community in Punjab, India, can tell us about intrinsic and extrinsic motivations for wildlife conservation, exploring ways to restore coexistence of local people with wildlife.

Sara Leino wants to know whether human-imposed disturbance affects disease in natural plant communities, and aims to unravel interactions between the plant community and its microbiota, accompanied by her focal plant species bilberry 🫐 #LSS33

Joette Crosier investigates novel methods to make reintroduction of threatened wood-inhabiting fungi in Nordic countries more successful and able to be implemented in real conservation projects beyond basic research #LSS33

Anirban Ganguly plans to study light pollution’s effects on freshwater ecosystems, hoping to improve both our understanding of the impacts of artificial light on these communities and our ability to predict and alleviate larger perturbations of freshwater ecosystems. #LSS33

Eszter Megyeri aim to understand how beavers can influence cross-habitat ecological links, focussing on how they affect pied flycatchers at boreal lakes. Insect prey abundance was higher under beaver influence, while measures of breeding performance varied between years #LSS33 🦫

Mikael Englund presents 2D images and 3D footage of dried and pinned museum insect specimens rendered from high resolution micro-CT scans, and demonstrates how these images are used in research #LSS33 🦋🐝🪲

So nice to see the vintage @SpringSymposium cups 2019 being used during the symposium this year 😎 The cups were designed for reuse ♻️😁 All those good memories organising the 2019 symposium come back to me 🥰 A Aina Brias Guinart Marion S-W #Kivikoski #Schulz

And that's a wrap on the 33rd LUOVA Symposium! Congratulations to our winners: Olli's prize: Federica Manca (2nd: Sarella Arkkila, 3rd: Camila Souza Beraldo) Best poster: Esmeralda Villon (runners up: Ariadne Kibbelaar and Adrián Colino Barea) 🏆 🏅 🏆

Congratulations to @Cassiopaea1, whose presentation on macrophyte-epifauna associations in the Baltic Sea won Olli's prize (honouring Professor Olli Juhani Järvinen (1950-1990) - more information on our website) for best presentation
