Some more highlights from my first month in Cantanhez NP, Guinea-Bissau! 🇬🇼 🌍🧪

Excited to share that an article related to our recent review covering the evolutionary ecology of ethanol is now available online at @uk.theconversation.com! Big thanks to @kjhockings.bsky.social, Matthew Carrigan, Amanda Melin, @evol-lab-ex.bsky.social, @exeter.ac.uk, @uniexecec.bsky.social.

For tree planting initiatives to truly benefit people and nature, they must be designed with farmers at the centre – not just as recipients, but as guardians and active decision-makers New article by Ennia Bosshard of @uniexecec.bsky.social in @uk.theconversation.com

PhD fieldwork is now well underway! I’m in Cantanhez NP for 4 months to explore the use of bioacoustics to monitor critically-endangered western chimpanzees! Lots of updates to come 🌍

Very grateful to have my research highlighted by BES! @wildcru.bsky.social @uniexecec.bsky.social This paper is now out and can be accessed here 🥳 zslpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

spAbundance package (Doser et al. doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.14332) was published this year at @methodsinecoevol.bsky.social! It fits a variety of single/multispecies abundance models using Bayesian Inference allowing also for hierarchical frameworks. Let me show you a funny example 🧵👇(1/6) #rstats

Ok people. I’m drawing silhouettes this afternoon. If you have a paper coming up and you are in need of a #silhouette please let me know and I will have it ready today. As always I upload all my silhouettes to phylopic.org I also have tutorials on how to put a silhouette in a plot in R.

New Paper! 🐒🌍🦤🧪 @andyhouldcroft.bsky.social built upon his MSc Conservation & Biodiversity project to develop a mapping model using monkeys in Guinea Bissau which aims to boost conservation & promote human-wildlife coexistence @uniexecec.bsky.social #ExeterGSES news.exeter.ac.uk/faculty-of-e...

A monkey mapping study led by doctoral researcher @andyhouldcroft.bsky.social could boost conservation of animal species that share their habitats with humans. @uniexecec.bsky.social Full paper: nsojournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... Press release: news.exeter.ac.uk/faculty-of-e...
