Proud to announce that our latest paper is out on Biological Conservation (@elseviernature).
We assessed functional connectivity for the conservation of the Eurasian lynx, both between subpopulations and protected areas (PAs), using various techniques.

🧬🍷 #BioSpritz – #Biodiversity#Aperitifs!
The starting event, titled "Know them to conserve them: pollinating flies and vineyard management," took place yesterday.
Vibrant discussion, and lots of curiosity.
Next BioSpritz? 📅 July 14 – stay tuned!
🛠️ A new tool for biodiversity conservation! @daviser95 et al., developed a framework combining #SDMs, #connectivity, and individual-based models to support #reintroductions planning, demonstrating its use on the Eurasian #lynx in the Apennines. 🌍🧬

Last week I had the pleasure of presenting our new ‘MDS’ framework for reintroduction planning (https://t.co/yP9UfzWRyd) at the 2nd ECR Conference in Conservation Biology, organized by
@scb_italy.
A great chance to share ideas and connect with amazing researchers!
Today we dove into the world of ecological modelling with some truly impressive studies! From SDMs to connectivity analyses, these talks showcased how models can drive real-world conservation impact. #ECR2025
@daviser95 on stage at @univaq presenting a new ecological modeling framework to support reintroduction projects, using the reintroduction of the Eurasian lynx in the Apennines as a case study.
A fantastic and provocative intervention! #ECR2025@scb_italy
First workshop of #ECR2025 here at @univaq with Prof. Luca Santini: an introduction to predictive modelling in ecology! 🌱🌍
A big thank you to all the early-career researchers who joined — looking forward to tomorrow’s official kick-off!
Manca pochissimo alla 2° Conferenza di Biologia della Conservazione per giovani ricercatori che si terrà all’Aquila dal 6 al 9 maggio. Siete pronti? Vi ricordiamo che tutte le informazioni relative al convegno sono disponibili al seguente sito: https://t.co/zT1j9abh3n
A stunning male roe #deer in the Central #Apennines, showcasing its characteristic marking behavior: pawing the ground with its sharp front hooves (scraping) and rubbing its antlers and forehead against tree trunks and bushes. A mesmerizing look at this creature! 🦌
@basava_mulage@scb_italy@Society4ConBio@univaq Hi, notifications for acceptance will be sent out shortly, perhaps within the next week, as the scientific committee is completing the evaluation of the abstracts

Peer review bullying - an overlooked form of academic bullying - is unfair & potentially aggressive behavior by reviewers
It includes:
- unconstructive criticism
- ad hominem attacks
- unfair bias
- double standards
- intentional delays
- idea theft

The 2nd Conference for Early Career Researchers of the Society for Conservation Biology (Italy Chapter) will be held in L’Aquila! ⛰���
Don’t miss this opportunity to meet new friends and spread your research! 🌱
Call for abstracts and travel grants will be open very soon! 🚀
Will we know if we have "bent the curve" of biodiversity loss?
Our paper tackling this question is out today in @ScienceAdvances
“Global monitoring for #biodiversity: uncertainty, risk and power analyses to support trend change detection”
