PhD. student @umons and @univ_lille investigating the effects of #phthalates on #bees health and development 🐝🌼 @dewjus.bsky.social @dewjus.mastodon.social
🗣️Presenting an overview of my ongoing phD thesis project with results on the effects of DnBP and DEHP on bumblebees 🐝 @ #RTPollineco meeting 2024 !
Glad to see friendly faces ✨
At #SETACSeville !
If you're interested in #phthalate exposure and effects on #bumblebees, I'm having a talk (3.21.A.T-05) at Auditorium 1 at 12.40. Also, come and take a look at the poster 3.21.P-We225 in Poster Area 1 ! 👀
📢Paper's out ! 📰🎉
We applied an adapted exposure protocol on nine species of wild bees and tested how their sensitivity towards sulfoxaflor compares to the model species, 𝘉𝘰𝘮𝘣𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘴. 🐝

New Paper! Here I argue that the list of ingredients on the back of a pesticide should no longer be a secret. Secrecy isn't in farmer's or consumer's interests! I also take on the industry arguments defending the practice. 1/6

A really nice way to open young minds to science ! That's a really nice job from colleagues Antoine Gekière and Maryse Vanderplanck with beautiful graphics🥳🐝🤗

It's finally time for the #WildPoshKickOff 🦋
The day started with a warm welcome and an introduction from our project coordinator Prof. Denis Michez (University of Mons).
Stay tuned for live updates! 👀
It's almost time for the #WIldPoshKickOff ❗
This week on 25-26 January, all project partners will gather in Mons, 🇧🇪 for our official start. We will discuss objectives and strategies to enhance the sustainable health of #WildPollinators in Europe 💡
Stay tuned for updates!
It's time for a proper introduction! 🎉
After the official start of the project on 1 January, we are happy to share with you more about us in this short video. 🦋
Stay tuned for what is coming up next. 👀

Good news for early 2024: New paper out in Annals of Botany ! We tested for potential rescue of inter-lineages hybrids of Silene nutans (Caryophyllaceae) through paternal transmission of the plastid genome 👇

So the Government have banned plastic straws and now they're doing a consultation on banning plastic wet wipes...I agree this is much needed action, but meanwhile people can cover their entire property in plastic?? Can we get some perspective here!! @Shitlawns
Go check out this preprint led by @F_Monnet and @CRouxEvo ! Super exciting results about faster establishment of reproductive barriers in plants vs animals 👇🌿
Delighted to advertise a new post-doc position in my group, as part of a collaboration with @chickpeaman . If you’re excited about bumble 🐝 health, parasites, and plants as pharmacies, check it out https://t.co/RKi9BK07Nm deadline 27 October. Please retweet
PhD position. This @SWBio_DTP project will focus on understanding how exposure to multiple anthropogenic stressors influences bumblebees🐝

“One of the challenges for #bees is to have a strong taxonomic backbone,” says Denis Michez of @umons.
His talk on the biology and ecology of European bees has been all the buzz today at #ECE2023!
