Artículo en formato divulgativo sobre nuestro último estudio en @es.theconversation.com 👇 Unos pocos grados de diferencia pueden marcar la frontera entre la vida y la muerte de la vid

🚨 New paper out! We show that the resolution of climate data matters for predicting disease risk. High-resolution maps reveal local risks — especially in river valleys — that coarser data miss. This has a significant impact on a global scale. 🔗 rdcu.be/eH67i @ifisc.uib-csic.es @csic.es @uib.cat

📢 New publication: High-resolution climate data reveals increased risk of Pierce's Disease for grapevines worldwide by @agimenezromero.bsky.social, Eduardo Moralejo and @mamatias26.bsky.social, in Scientific Reports. 🔗 ifisc.uib-csic.es/en/publicati...

'The myth of meritocracy in science collapses under the financial sacrifices expected at every career stage. From unpaid internships and self-funded conferences to underpaid graduate and postdoctoral positions, the hidden costs of ‘doing science’ are profound.' journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...

🪸 @quantamagazine.bsky.social has published an article highlighting the innovative work of Dr. Eva Llabrés, postdoctoral researcher at IFISC. The article details her development of a "universal" model of coral growth. 🔗 ifisc.uib-csic.es/en/news/dr-e...

Btw, my PhD thesis is now on Zenodo! It’s a mix of theoretical and data-driven models tackling ecological problems—disease spread, climate change, and ecosystem monitoring. If that sounds interesting, take a look: doi.org/10.5281/zeno...

🦠Un estudio sugiere que el #cambioclimático abre la puerta a una enfermedad de la vid que Europa esquivó hace 150 años 🌳El @ifisc.uib-csic.es y Tragsa analizan la expansión de la enfermedad de Pierce, que hace 10 años que se extiende por el Mediterráneo 👉 tiny.cc/va69001

¿Cómo esquivó Europa la enfermedad de Pierce hace 150 años? 🧐🍇 Un estudio del IFISC publicado en Proc. R. Soc. B revela que el clima más frío impidió la propagación de Xylella fastidiosa. Sin embargo, el #CambioClimático podría cambiar el panorama. 🌍 www.csic.es/es/actualida...

En Italia, algunos científicos no creen que la solución sea destruir los ejemplares infectados por la bacteria Xylell y apuestan por soluciones alternativas, algo que investigadores españoles consideran que no es viable Con el apoyo de Journalismfund Europe

Com les matemàtiques ens poden ajudar a conservar els esculls de coral? 🪸 L'investigador de l'IFISC @agimenezromero.bsky.social va participar en el programa Arran de Mar de Tarragona Ràdio comentant els resultats del seu darrer article. 📻 alacarta.tarragonaradio.cat/programs/arr...

"Ants solving a geometric problem and it's amazing." This is a great example of 'emergent phenomenon': - None of the ants understand the problem they're solving. - None of them can see the whole shape. - A series of small decisions or rules add up to something with a new layer of complexity.

For those of us who are not professional biologists, it can be daunting to hear about transcription factors, signaling pathways and non-coding RNA. But this poignant piece from @philipcball.bsky.social opened my eyes to how deep and essential these ideas truly are. nautil.us/how-life-rea...

Looking forward to #BES2024 this week! Look out for talks and posters by members of the SalGoTeam - hope to see you there! 🎄🧪

Very excited to be presenting preliminary results of my master's research with @salgoteam.bsky.social at #BES2024! Find me at the poster session on Weds (A17.10) to chat about life stage-dependent plant competition and quantitative modelling of its impact on community dynamics and coexistence 🌿📈

Are you excited about marine soundscapes? Interested in contributing to tackling the ocean noise challenge and mitigating its effects on marine life? 🌊🧪🎙️🐋 I have nice opportunities coming your way, MSc and postdoc projects building on a 4+ years dataset collected in the St. Lawrence. Stay tuned…

Mass bleaching of corals on the Great Barrier Reef in early 2024 was the most severe and most widespread yet recorded - surpassing 1998, 2002, 2016, 2017, 2020 & 2022. The overall mortality rate this year will exceed the 30% loss in 2016. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Are the major evolutionary transitions describable as phase transitions, as in statistical physics? A great example of this is the transition to eukaryotic cells, as shown by this excellent paper by Jordi Bascompte and co-workers europepmc.org/api/fulltext...
