Have you considered whether animals differ in their perception of density?
We explored how differences in our senses, interpretation and past experiences shapes density perception, causing behavioral differences and affecting fitness outcomes. π§ͺ

What is responsible and rigorous science? @anelivb.bsky.social and @rebeccachen.bsky.social spent the last two days discussing this question at the #iScienceTBD workshop at @idiv-research.bsky.social. From EDI and science communication to HARKing, p-hacking, DAGs β lots of food for thought! π±π§

Publication alert! β¨ Our recent paper in Ecology & Evolution addresses how to make conferences more inclusive. We collected observational and experimental data during Q&A sessions at the Behaviour 2023 congress hosted by Bielefeld University, and circulated a survey among conference attendees [1/4]
π§ͺ Lab plastic waste is a huge problem - but what can we do about it? π₯Ό
In our lab, we tested whether reusing and washing microtitre plates could help reduce waste.
In some cases, it works! β»οΈ π

I had the pleasure of presenting at my first European Cetacean Society's conference.
The conference in Ponta Delgada, the Azores was extremely well executed and I had a great time connecting with peers and learning more about marine mammals.

Ever wondered if you could reduce the laboratory plastic waste?
We tested the reusability of microtiter plates for PCR and fragment detection.

No expert on track, but I'd guess feline, due to the lack of claw marks?
I would love to me added!
25th Biennial Conference on the Biology of Marine Mammals.
With the theme 'fishing for change', SMM brought together scientists from near and far to share knowledge, experience and ideas.
Take home message: if you take from Country, you must give back to Country. (life in balance with nature)
conservgenomics Paris take home messages:
- How do we bridge the gap between scientists and conservation agents?
- How do we communicate our results, so they are interpretable to those who must apply them?
