Viva officially passed and time for a celebration 🎉 massive thank you to @PrysorWilliams and @AgusBC3 for such a positive viva experience!

[James McDonald @jamesemcdonald]

Great to get together for the @BBSRC @FutureOak_ research workshop in #Birmingham to discuss project progress and results, plan data analysis and writing papers @BactPlantDis @ActionOak

[DiversiTree @DiversiTree_UK]

First #DiversiTree Practitioner Panel meeting -✅
Great way to celebrate @ScienceWeekUK
Huge thanks to attendees. It's a vital part of ensuring project scrutiny & applicability. Take-home message: scale matters when it comes to tree species diversity. @UK_Treescapes #BSW23 🔬🌲🌳

[DiversiTree @DiversiTree_UK]

Our Practitioner Panel tests & enhances implementation of results. Forest managers with diverse experience & objectives (both commercial &not) coming together with open minds & mutual respect, for frank discussions as our critical friends. Refreshing in a polarised world & sector

Colleagues - just a couple of days left to submit a paper to our ASA panel this year on how to tackle human and tree health challenges at the same time! @UK_Treescapes @FR_SERG @WoodlandTrust

[FUTURE OAK @FutureOak_]

Just a reminder that this is the last week to submit a proposal to @theasainfo's annual conference! Future Oak social scientists will be there discussing woodland health, and we hope you'll join them!
