I am incredibly proud to share that I have been awarded a DFF Sapere Aude starting grant for my new research project entitled ”From Catastrophe to Culture: Understanding Epidemics in Ancient Mesopotamia”!

I am very proud to be featured in this video produced by University of Oxford, describing my work to save the hedgehogs through research, conservation, research communication and political influence:

"Les crottes de hérisson, un trésor pour évaluer la biodiversité", article écrit par @drhedgehog.bsky.social pour "The Conversation" (version en français). Merci chère Sophie pour ton formidable travail de recherche sur le Hérisson d'Europe ♥️🦔🐾 theconversation.com/les-crottes-...

Very proud and grateful 😍

Did you know that hedgehog poop can help save biodiversity? @drhedgehog.bsky.social tells us how! bit.ly/43VsGRQ @biology.ox.ac.uk @oxfordgeography.bsky.social @ox.ac.uk

Conference (en anglais) sur la protection du Hérisson d'Europe par @drhedgehog.bsky.social pour TEDxAalborg. Merci Sophie pour tout ce que tu fais pour la protection du Hérsisson ! youtu.be/MKfEWYDK-gE

If you love hedgehogs as much as we do don't miss Dr Hedgehog TEDx Talk about using hedgehog poo to measure biodiversity 🦔💩. You can watch it here: bit.ly/4jVuhgk

How can we monitor biodiversity loss? 🦔 Field radio-tracking European hedgehogs and eDNA analysis of hedgehog droppings provides insights into their diets and, in turn, the local biodiversity. Hear from @drhedgehog.bsky.social in a new TEDx talk 👉 www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKfE... @biology.ox.ac.uk

It is HEDGEHOG AWARENESS WEEK 🦔 Please do something to help the hedgehogs today! Make a log pile in your garden to create a nest site for the hedgehogs, as described by BHPS patron Twiggy in the video below. I have also made videos with tips for a hedgehog friendly garden (links in comments).

It is HEDGEHOG AWARENESS WEEK 🦔 Please do something to help the hedgehogs today! I do my best to communicate my research to engage people in hedgehog conservation. My latest endeavour is a TEDx Talk, which can be watched here: youtu.be/MKfEWYDK-gE?...

Last night I saw a hedgehog …

Lang fredag? Fortvivl ej! Jeg har været i studiet hos Videnslyd og indspille en episode om pindsvin til podcast-serien Fuld af viden - forskernes fredagsbar. Det er 37 minutters rendyrket pindsvine-nørderi 🦔 Lyt med her: open.spotify.com/episode/5CCF... eller: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

I just gave my first TEDxTalk! Cannot wait to share the link to the video with you once it is ready- please stay tuned 🤩🦔💩

Skønt 🦔 I går blev jeg, ved en fejl, på TV2 News og Co opgraderet til professor på Oxford Universitet🤣👌 Indslaget handlede om pindsvin, klimaforandringer og vinterdvale. Hjælp mig med at blive klogere på pindsvin og vinterhi ved at udfylde spørgeskemaet på www.danmarkspindsvin.dk Tusind tak 🦔

🦔 Our research to improve the safety of robotic lawn mowers for hedgehogs is featured in an impressive nature documentary broadcasted on ARTE, called 'Welcome To The Neighbourhood - Wildlife In The City' 🦔 @hedgehogsociety.bsky.social

With @abigazzard.bsky.social 😍🦔

📢 Calling all wildlife conservation and hedgehog nerds 📢 I am proud to announce that @abigazzard.bsky.social, David Macdonald and I have published a paper summarising the current conservation statuses of the five hedgehog species occurring in Europe: doi.org/10.1016/j.bi...

Ce soir sur ARTE, à 20h15, les hérissons vous attendent. Nous serons avec eux, à Paris, dans le film de Heiko de Groot. @drhedgehog.bsky.social sera aussi au Danemark et autres amis des hérissons en Europe. Les films de Heiko de Groot sont superbes et primés internationalement. A voir et revoir.

Hedgehog romance! 🦔 Sophie Lund Rasmussen (aka @drhedgehog.bsky.social) joined Oxford Sparks' podcast for a deep dive into the love lives of these usually solitary mammals. Listen here 👉 pod.fo/e/2aedc5 @biology.ox.ac.uk @mplsoxford.bsky.social

The podcast I never thought I would make: An Oxford Sparks Valentine's special on the sex lives of hedgehogs 🥰🦔 Tune in here: www.oxfordsparks.ox.ac.uk/podcasts/how...

En dansk mand er sigtet for at have hvidvasket narkopenge for millioner gennem salg af minkskind. Nu kan vi fortælle, at han – samtidig med den påstående kriminalitet – har siddet og uddelt minkerstatning www.zetland.dk/historie/sZX...

Ja, kønt er det ikke, men nogle gange skulle man altså have været mandlig professor i stedet! Lyt med i podcasten Taletid, hvor Dorthe Chakravarty og jeg taler om hvorfor det nogle gange kan være udfordrende, at være yngre, kvindelig forsker: soundcloud.com/dorthechakra...

I am so proud and grateful 🙏😍🤩

Today I am so very happy to share that I have taken up the position as Associate Professor in Assyriology at the Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies at the University of Copenhagen!

I have taken fundraising for my research to a new level by encouraging people to buy a hedgehog poo as a Christmas present to that one person who has everything and never provides any wishes 😂 Fortunately, the Danish media has picked up on this: videnskab.dk/naturvidensk...

With the recent IUCN Red List status update for the European hedgehog, I decided to write a call to action, encouraging everyone from garden owners to politicians to play their part, and help stop this worrying decline. Please read it, share it, and feedback: www.sciencenordic.com/animals/time...
