Beautiful landscapes, although identifying leafless trees was not so easy 😅

Feeling grateful for the incredible community support in reaching 18K signatures on the petition to stop the Kew herbarium move. Let's keep fighting for our botanical heritage! 🌼 #SaveKewHerbarium #taxonomy #curation #heritage change.org/p/keep-the-kew…

Thrilled to have gathered under the sun in Alicante & online for our 2nd annual meeting! ☀️ We engaged in fruitful discussions on manuscript outlines, preliminary results, conservation targets, and outreach strategies 🎯📝🌿 Excited for the progress ahead!

Many thanks to Nicolas Montès et al. for FAMEeLeS, "A multispecies and fully automated method to measure morphological leaf traits" (doi.org/10.1111/2041-2…). Very useful for the Biodiversa+ (European Biodiversity Partnership) integradiv Biodiversa+ project 😉🌿

Extremely remote islands are more likely than less isolated ones to have a high number of endemic languages go.nature.com/47y3qkT

INTEGRADIV Postdocs meeting started yesterday at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (inactief)! First day with the whole consortium in person and online, to talk about advances of each work package 🚀🌿 Biodiversa+ (European Biodiversity Partnership)

Nice moment 👍🏻

Yesterday our postdoc team did a walk in the Zuid-Kennemerland National Park 🌳🇳🇱 It was interesting to see how #conservationstrategies are applied in a country outside our study area 🎯

Last day of the integradiv Biodiversa+ Postdoc meeting today 🌿 It has been such a good week of brainstorming, headaches and laughs! 🙂 Can't wait to see you at Aarhus Universitet in March for the annual meeting 🇩🇰
