Change of plans! Newcastle Uni have pulled funding for post PhD submission bursaries. So I'm on the look out for jobs to start in Jan/Feb 2025, including short term opportunities. Please let me know if you're aware of any invasive species research/management positions. Thanks!

Ever get #Antarctica and the #Arctic confused? 🤔❄️ Which has polar bears and which has penguins? 🐧🐻❄️ And where does Santa live? 🎅 You’re not alone! The Arctic is an ocean surrounded by land, while Antarctica is a continent surrounded by ocean. 🌍

Very proud to share the first paper from my PhD! 🥳
We review approaches for enhancing ecological assessments through environmental DNA (#eDNA) / eRNA surveys of microorganisms, host-symbiont units (holobionts) and biodiversity across the tree of life 🦠🦊🌳🦆🧬🦀

Holobionts and microbial consortia represent ecological units that can be investigated by eDNA/eRNA, and may be more sensitive indicators of ecosystem function and health than other eNA approaches

The media and political class is complicit in the far right, racist and Islamophobic violence we’re seeing across our country.
This morning, I experienced the visceral denial of this reality.
