Today is #EarthDay2022. As #zoologists, we work every day to protect #biodiversity, fully aware of how harmful human activities are to #nature 🌍 To get an idea of the magnitude of #anthropocene impacts, follow the animated illustrations at this link: anthropomass.org

Some photos from yesterday's visit to the Museum of Natural History in #Milan with zoology students. An exciting tour among beautiful dioramas and rare collections. Many thanks to curator Giorgio Chiozzi. See the website: museodistorianaturalemilano.it

First #eDNA samples collection for the #BioDivRice research project, aimed at the characterization and conservation of #soil #biodiversity 🌾🧬

JRC estimates that 61.5% of soils are unhealthy in the EU, provides spatial dashboard where these soils are located and the degradation processes that affect them. Read the methodology behind the map below (darker the red colour, the more unhealthy soil) esdac.jrc.ec.europa.eu/esdacviewer/eu…

BIODIVERSITÀ NEL NOSTRO MARE A QUADRETTI! Elisa Bona ed Irene . 19 maggio ore 17,30, Vercelli. Evento organizzato dal Centro Ricerche Atlantide e patrocinato da UPO - Università #zoologia #biodiversità #microbiologia

Five years after my (crazy) idea to include soil biodiversity in EU_ScienceHub's LUCAS, the largest 🇪🇺 soil survey, I'm excited to unveil first results🤩🦠🍄🤎 "Patterns in soil microbial diversity across Europe" published in Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

Today is the end of an amazing #phylogenomic week with SIBE-Società italiana di biologia evoluzionistica at the #itaphy2023 course. Many young evolutionist came together to better understand how #evolution works 🧬 Thanks to all the organizers and the invited lecturers. See you all soon!

Happy to attend my first #UZIcongress in the beautiful city of Palermo. Many interesting talks on the different sides of #zoology 🦎🧬🌍 ZooDiversity Lab - UPO UPO - Università uzionlus.it/82-congresso-u…

We are happy to present TreeProfiler for annotate and visualize phylogenetic tree with associated metadata. Basically, it utilizes two-step strategy "annotate" and "plot": a) "annotate" requires an input tree in Newick format and one or more data tables in tsv format....

Last week, we attended the #UZIcongress in Palermo. We shared our recent studies with the Italian #zoologist. In particular, take a look at Irene's presentation topic 👀 If you want to learn more or collaborate, write an email to [email protected] UPO - Università
