🟠 Wrap-up of the first day of TETTRIs Final Event

Today we focused on advances in #AI-based tools for taxonomy, reference collections, and the relevance of genomic tools, with a special focus on the new #Marketplace as a key tool to connect experts and taxonomic services.

🌍 By connecting collections, people, and data, SEN-PollColl will increase the visibility and scientific use of Spanish regional collections, support conservation actions, and contribute to a stronger pollinator research community in Spain.

Stay tuned! 📡

🎯 Our key objectives are:

1️⃣ Mobilisation of collection-based data on pollinators
2️⃣ Training and education of students and collection managers in best practices
3️⃣ Networking and long-term collaboration among institutions housing pollinators

Last week, some #INCSTEP members participated in the XXI Iberian Entomology Congress.
The focus this year was on #pollinators! 🪰🐝🦋

Our initiative presented two virtual posters and two oral contributions! 🎓
