Looking for a PhD? We have a new NERC-funded studentship open in my lab to investigate the impacts of air pollution on pheromone communication in insect. The studentship is in collaboration with @BenLangfordVOC at @UK_CEH To learn more and apply visit: https://t.co/swpI53xcEn

@HaoYu04060116 @MKivimaenpaa @royalsociety Very pleased that this work is now published. Well done Hao! And congrats also on yesterday's presentation of this work at IUFRO Lisbon 2022

@Martinplantecol Thanks Martin! Very happy to have this work published. Particular credit goes to @TiszaPatrick. This work was conducted during his successful Marie Curie fellowship in our department @UEF_EnvBio

Ready for examination with @JDBlande from @UniEastFinland the PhD thesis of Yang Liu of @GeoHelsinkiUni @helsinkiuni. The findings of biogenic volatile organic compounds from East African ecosystems are rare in atmospheric sciences. @FMIclimate @heidiphellen @Yang19209175

Just a few more days to apply for an open 2yr postdoc position in our lab. 👇

@benecofox @UniEastFinland @jkholopainen @UEF_EnvBio Thank you, Ben 😊

@Riikka_Rinnan Congratulations to @JRieksta, on a really strong PhD defence. It was an honour to act as one of the opponent's today.

[James Blande @JDBlande]

@Toby_Bruce @Martinplantecol Indeed, we had slightly different expectations for this study. From our experience, Plutella xylostella tends to make clear choices. The challenge can be to work out why. Good to work with the Maffei lab to work out a bit more about plant responses to chemical cues

[James Blande @JDBlande]

@Martinplantecol Thanks for your interest @Martinplantecol. Indeed we had some slightly different hypotheses. Fortunately, Agnès Brosset was able to visit the Maffei lab to look at the system in more detail. It was a collaboration that we had planned for some time - maybe we will need a sequel

[James Blande @JDBlande]

@helena_ruhanen Ha! They are super-sized turnips. Quite the harvest you got, but not sure how tasty they would have been

[James Blande @JDBlande]

Our new publication on diurnal BVOC and photosynthesis trends of conifers was just published in Environmental Pollution. An exceptional effort by Hao Yu https://t.co/6DhrLNhF0C went into this finished article https://t.co/MIG7VNlGCl

@helena_ruhanen Congratulations to Usman! A convincing defence of his work - and an honour to be his custos

@elinamantyla @UniTurku Thanks! It was a pleasure to speak in this seminar series. Great to give a research update, eight years after my last presentation in Turku!
