Fully-funded AHRC PhD studentship on 'Understanding ‘Place’ in Historical Botanical Collections: science, commerce, empire, and the early-modern herbarium'. Come and work on the Sloane Herbarium! For details, see: https://t.co/wzXTEAEXu2
By collaborating with the @Hines_Lab and @PaulWilliamsNHM, we deciphered the evolutionary history of the most colorful bumblebee mimicry complex in southeast Asia. Our study is just published on Science Advances, and more excitingly, our bee is on the COVER! @ScienceAdvances
The student conference @NHM_Students is a great platform to deliver updates on our science. @zichenzhouzhou gave an excellent presentation on #Staphylinidae biodiversity based on multi-hierarchical molecular data 🧬 🪲
New paper from #VoglerLab Despite data from 101 countries, sampling needs to increase for an assessment of global species richness. The geographic & phylogenetic structure of public DNA barcode databases: an assessment using Chrysomelidae (leaf beetles) https://t.co/jrOUBq0kWQ
Terrestrial isopods 💕 cuteness overload
Compared to terrestrial ones, their aquatic relatives are really bizarre and crazy looking, and I’ll do another piece for them!
Meet Dr. Shelia Colla, an executive member of #BEEc. @SaveWildBees' research focuses on wild pollinators, especially #bumblebees, addressing #conservation gaps and exploring the human side of pollinator conservation. Read more here https://t.co/40PkMYYlw7. #membermondays#yorku
Meet Dr. Laurence Packer, an executive member of #BEEc. Their research delves into #bee systematics, phylogeny, taxonomy, and more. With a vast collection of 500,000+ specimens, they're a leader in the bee research field. Read more here https://t.co/3MOpdNDUOX
