Congrats Anran fan on the first publication from your MSc @Zoology_Otago #eDNA #biodiversity https://t.co/THL8OFsbVg

Horrific to see the humanities and social sciences panels being disbanded. A dark day for many and a remarkably short sighted decision. Impact should not be measured just from core science https://t.co/x6HBPCbjV3

How do insects adapt to harsh alpine conditions? Our new research reveals strikingly different responses to elevation in two closely related stoneflies. @Ecol_Evol @jon_waters_nz @BrodieFoster @MarsdenFund https://t.co/8ENBHBARbF

Check out the cover on the latest issue of Journal of Economic Entomology! That's my wasp from our study on wasps as biocontrol agents, published in this issue!
My first journal cover. I'm so happy.

Our new paper is online at Environmental DNA. We use national stream macroinvertebrate datasets collected using benthic sampling and #eDNA to compare how well each quantifies stream ecosystem health. eDNA works well with the right approach and/or index

Congrats to 26th @NZMolEcol @otago 2023 student prize-winners - Kahu Hema, (Hadley Muller), Hui Zhen Tan, Mary Hawkes & Monica Vallender

I am looking for 2 PhD candidates to join my group at @waikato next year to investigate #biodiversity and ecosystem processes across stream-riparian boundaries. Both projects will focus on #foodwebs and ecosystem functioning in forested streams. Please RT! https://t.co/OEOiSenPPg

[Francis J. Burdon @frank_burdon]

I'm really excited about our #Marsden funded project investigating the consequences of #biodiversity on ecosystem processes across the stream-riparian interface. We'll be advertising for two PhD positions working closely together - further details to be announced shortly
