The first series of webinar recordings from the @Bicikl_H2020 Open Call Project is now out on YouTube! Showcasing the impact of providing Transnational Access (TNA) services by BiCIKL’s partners to the biodiversity community.
Here's one of the winners of the #BiCIKL_H2020 call. Thorsten Dikow's "Digital access to data on African asiloid fly species from taxonomic publication" research in a video. Watch it here 👇 youtu.be/uDGLUqriyT8?si=Y4XI… @EUgreenresearch @REA_research

Important that we maximize the use of #eDNA #biodiversity data by using comparable approaches. That’s what we will introduce and discuss in this session. @eDNA_Society @eDNAcollab @DNAquaNet @SeDNASociety
29 May 2023
eDNA as a routine measure of #biodiversity in real-world, large-scale applications & across environmental settings. Calling all abstracts for the use of #eDNA in long-term environmental stewardship programs. Submit your abstract here👉 bit.ly/nH4sjl #GEOBONconf2023

Can a wild herbivorous wood grouse that most people would probably never come across be a potential high-risk host for antibiotic-resistant bacteria 🦠? That was exactly what @kid4_j and I found from the poop 💩 of western capercaillies eur02.safelinks.protection.o… 🧵 1/9

Thanks to @kid4_j for this wild 🦠 ride! This study would absolutely not have been possible without his brilliance and hard work! And for saying yes immediately when I first proposed this idea back then (even when I knew nothing at all 😅). 9/9 @Globe_UCPH @evohologen

This is also my bittersweet farewell to my PhD subject which have brought me immense joy even after graduation. A huge shout out to the best mentors that I could ever ask for @kristinebohmann, Inger, and Sanne for sparking my love for research. It has been a great 💩 journey 🤩😍
