📢❗La ciencia no se firma, se financia
Hace ya dos años que se firmó el #PactoXLaCiencia y no puede quedarse en un pacto vacío
✊🏼El 28 de septiembre saldremos a las calles de diferentes ciudades para recordar que #SinCienciaNoHayFuturo @dianamorantr.bsky.social @cienciagob.bsky.social

🔴La convocatoria “Consolidación Investigadora” de este año vuelve a sufrir un recorte
📉Es un 50% menos que 2024, que a su vez ya fue recortada otro 50% respecto a 2023

Population genomics and taxonomy solve a conservation conundrum in the Balearic paleoendemic Femeniasia balearica A robust understanding of taxonomy, distribution and intraspecific genetic diversity is crucial for the conservation of narrow endemic species, which …

A new study reveals the ancient origins and genetic diversity of Femeniasia balearica, prompting the development of new conservation strategies for Balearic endemics.

Biodiversity Genomics Research Practices Require Harmonising to Meet Stakeholder Needs in Conservation Biodiversity resilience relies on genetic diversity, which sustains the evolutionary potential of organisms in dynamic ecosystems. Genomics is a powerful tool for accurately estimating genetic divers...

📢 It’s time to harmonise practices for assessing genome-wide genetic diversity 🧬 Standardisation is key to meet the needs of stakeholders in biodiversity #conservation.

Environmental Data Do Not Correlate With Plant Genetic Diversity in Alpine Ecosystems This study investigates the impact of environmental factors on genetic diversity in 14 European alpine plant species using AFLP data. Among 48 environmental factors, only surface curvature (pcurv) sh...

Proud to share our new study: genetic diversity in European alpine plants is less shaped by environment than expected. Highlights the need for species-specific data in conservation! 🧬🏔️ Awesome co-workers! #Genetics #Alpine #Conservation
