🌡️ What we do today will change the future of our planet!
Our world is heating up 🔥 and soon, the opportunity to limit global warming to 1.5°C will be out of reach. We need to act now to ensure a better tomorrow for people and nature🌎

New PoshBee results 📢
An article investigating the distribution of infectious and parasitic agents among three sentinel #bee species in #European #AgriculturalLandscapes has been published in Scientific Reports. 🐝
Read more about it here: 🔗nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

ALT Figure 1 from the article: Numbers of countries with at least one positive site for each IPA at the two screening occasions (T0, T1). (A) Apis mellifera, (B) Bombus terrestris, and (C) Osmia bicornis. Honey bees and bumble bees were deployed in all the eight countries, while mason bees were deployed in six countries. Pl, Paenibacillus larvae; Mp, Melissococcus plutonius; Na, Nosema apis; Nc, Nosema ceranae; Nb, Nosema bombi. Numbers of countries: A. mellifera N = 8, B. terrestris N = 8, O. bicornis N = 5.

Welcome to the iDeer project! 🦌🌳
Funded by @UK_Treescapes, iDeer will co-develop a web-based tool that will map the risk of woodland and farmland damage caused by deer.

New paper by our @poshbee_eu team amazingly led by @BuzzNicholson, @JessKnapp24, and @MajRundlof on the impact of pesticides on #bumblebee colony growth and reproduction across eight European countries! Check it out 👇🏻 @HorizonEU
🚨New paper🚨
So excited our research into the impacts of landscape-scale pesticide exposure on bee health is published in @Nature. Huge thanks to my co-1st author @JessKnapp24 and @MajRundlof and all in @poshbee_eu
The paper: shorturl.ac/7cckv
What’s this all about? 🧵

Very proud to see the pioneering, transdisciplinary efforts of @poshbee_eu recognised in @Nature paper published today! This new research led by @JessicaKnapp, @BuzzNicholson @MajRundlof shows that common farmland pesticides significantly harm one of our important pollinators.1/8

Neither sulfoxaflor, Crithidia bombi, nor their combination impact bumble bee colony development or field bean pollination @EdStrawBio @CiniElena @deepa_sena

New Paper!
nature.com/articles/s41598-0…
We found that a new (and now banned) insecticide, called Sulfoxaflor, did not impact bumblebee reproduction or pollination.
Our new @poshbee_eu paper is out!
We found no effect of sulfoxaflor, Crithidia bombi, or their interaction on bumblebee behaviour, colony development, or pollination provided to field beans.

PoshBee comes to a close today🧡
It tackled bee health across an array of approaches, generating an unprecedented understanding of the problems bees face in EU agricultural environments - says Mark Brown, project coordinator

Curious to discover how #landscape and #climate impact on #insects in #agricultural #crops? 🦋🐝
We studied #honeybees, #bumblebees, solitary #bees, hover flies and #butterflies responses, across 128 sites in Europe

PhDs have a range of transferable skills but are not taught how to market them.
Here are 10 high-value transferable skills:

Aged 38 I applied to be a firefighter
Driven to make a difference
My partner strangled me in rage when I was accepted & left me
I've subsequently endured 12 years of harassment in the fire service for daring to be a woman
Do we still need #InternationalWomensDay
YES WE DO
