Our world is heating up 🔥 and soon, the opportunity to limit global warming to 1.5°C will be out of reach. We need to act now to ensure a better tomorrow for people and nature🌎

New PoshBee results 📢

An article investigating the distribution of infectious and parasitic agents among three sentinel #bee species in #European #AgriculturalLandscapes has been published in Scientific Reports. 🐝

Welcome to the iDeer project! 🦌🌳

Funded by @UK_Treescapes, iDeer will co-develop a web-based tool that will map the risk of woodland and farmland damage caused by deer.

New paper by our @poshbee_eu team amazingly led by @BuzzNicholson, @JessKnapp24, and @MajRundlof on the impact of pesticides on #bumblebee colony growth and reproduction across eight European countries! Check it out 👇🏻 @HorizonEU

[Charlie Nicholson @BuzzNicholson]

🚨New paper🚨

So excited our research into the impacts of landscape-scale pesticide exposure on bee health is published in @Nature. Huge thanks to my co-1st author @JessKnapp24 and @MajRundlof and all in @poshbee_eu

The paper: https://t.co/tea52zXVqf

What’s this all about? 🧵

[Jess Knapp @JessKnapp24]

Very proud to see the pioneering, transdisciplinary efforts of @poshbee_eu recognised in @Nature paper published today! This new research led by @JessicaKnapp, @BuzzNicholson @MajRundlof shows that common farmland pesticides significantly harm one of our important pollinators.1/8

Neither sulfoxaflor, Crithidia bombi, nor their combination impact bumble bee colony development or field bean pollination @EdStrawBio @CiniElena @deepa_sena

We found that a new (and now banned) insecticide, called Sulfoxaflor, did not impact bumblebee reproduction or pollination.

[Dr Elena Cini @CiniElena]

Our new @poshbee_eu paper is out!

We found no effect of sulfoxaflor, Crithidia bombi, or their interaction on bumblebee behaviour, colony development, or pollination provided to field beans.

PoshBee comes to a close today🧡

It tackled bee health across an array of approaches, generating an unprecedented understanding of the problems bees face in EU agricultural environments - says Mark Brown, project coordinator

Curious to discover how #landscape and #climate impact on #insects in #agricultural #crops? 🦋🐝

We studied #honeybees, #bumblebees, solitary #bees, hover flies and #butterflies responses, across 128 sites in Europe

PhDs have a range of transferable skills but are not taught how to market them.

Here are 10 high-value transferable skills:

[Antonia @flaminhaystacks]

Aged 38 I applied to be a firefighter

Driven to make a difference

My partner strangled me in rage when I was accepted & left me

I've subsequently endured 12 years of harassment in the fire service for daring to be a woman

Do we still need #InternationalWomensDay

YES WE DO
