Tropical Ecology Field Course :)

For almost 20 years, the Jagiellonian University has been organising a tropical ecology field course for its students. We started in Venezuela and now the courses take place alternately in Borneo and Costa Rica.

A new paper by our team @ioes-ju.bsky.social just published in J Invert Pathol @jinvertpathol.bsky.social! In Diptera-#Entomophthora system, we show how simultaneously #sequencing #insect, #fungal #pathogen, and bacterial marker genes can aid biodiversity and biological interaction discovery.

It's been a busy summer for our scientists. Several of them attended the #ESEB2025 conference in Barcelona.

Anna Maria Łabęcka, together with numerous European freshwater bivalve researchers, has developed a comprehensive atlas of freshwater bivalve distribution in the Western Palearctic! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The "Mayday, plastic threat!" project implemented by the Socio-Environmental Research Team is coming to an end, so below we present you the latest posters produced as part of the project.

🧵1/7 🐝🌱 #PollinatorWeek continues! Today we’re heading to @jagiellonskiuni.bsky.social  @ioes-ju.bsky.social , where @michalfilipiak.bsky.social  & @filipiakzuza.bsky.social  are looking at bees through a different lens — not just pollination, but nutrient cycling. ♻️🌍 #PollinatorsWeaveConnections

The very first paper from my lab in Krakow is now available here: DOI: 10.3791/68207 Yes, it is a protocol, BUT it is also a GREAT protocol! Congrats to the first author @navinafrancis.bsky.social! Stay tuned, an update on the clones is coming soon!

Congratulations to Alaa Hseiky! Fantastic PhD defence :) “Experimental evolution of the thrifty and spendthrift genotypes, and its consequence for susceptibility to adverse effects of “Western diet”: insights from a selection experiment on bank voles”

Come and see what we can offer!

Welcome!

🌍 Pollinators are life. Follow @butterfly-project.bsky.social – an EU-funded international research project working to stop and reverse pollinator decline. 🌱 Science + action + awareness. 🔗 Join us in building a more resilient future.

The paper is also a nice example of a MA using proportion data, and approximate sampling error weights derived from the properties of sampling design in each of the extracted studies.

One of my studies, written with wonderful @itchyshin.bsky.social Sammy Burke @patricepottier.bsky.social Trace Ainsworth & Losia Łagisz earned a #TopCitedArticle badge. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... We showed that coral diseases may get upended by climate change, wiping out most of corals

Time to celebrate new PhDs :)

Welcome!
