Congrats, Jonny, on a superb piece of work! We look forward to continuing to collaborate and seeing all you do next during your PhD @LivUni!

[Michael Pashkevich @MDPashkevich]

Huge congratulations to my @InsectGroup student @jonny_timperley who successfully passed his viva yesterday! Jonny's MPhil thesis provided first insights into how oil palm cultivation in #Liberia affects arthropods and their ecosystem functions. @CamZoology @JesusCollegeCam

Are wildlife documentaries showing us the ‘real’ natural world? recent paper in People and Nature led by @k_howlett @EdgarCTurner https://t.co/fGqYQQQW5o https://t.co/r7lvyF6E1t

[Insect Ecology Group @InsectGroup]

For our March blog post, MPhil student @jonny_timperley tells us all about his research in Liberian oil palm plantations with @MDPashkevich and about what brought him here.

[Cambridge University @Cambridge_Uni]

Are wildlife documentaries too focused on mammals and birds? 🐘🐦

New @CamZoology research has found that nature documentaries are portraying a biased view of the natural world, and invertebrates aren't getting enough attention...
