Very excited to share my first paper is out! 🎉 We explore the evolution of the multiple eye pairs in spiders🕷️(cell.com/current-biolog…) Couldn’t have done it without to the mentorship of the brilliant Lauren Sumner-Rooney!

This microscope can simultaneously sequence an individual cell’s DNA and pinpoint the location of its proteins with high resolution — all without having to crack the cell open and extract its contents go.nature.com/3Y5jqGG

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Geoff Monteith, honorary member of the AES & one of the world’s most commemorated scientists. His warmth, humour, knowledge & contributions to entomology will be profoundly missed. Vale, Dr. Geoff Monteith. buff.ly/3YDHSAo

Dr. Franziska Tanneberger & Thomas Speidel zeigen mit ihrer Arbeit, wie wir mutig neue Wege beschreiten können und werden dafür mit dem #Umweltpreis ausgezeichnet. Wir haben also das Wissen & die Fähigkeiten, den ökologischen Wandel zu beflügeln. #uwp24👉 dbu.de/news/mutmacher…

„Was mich aktuell beschäftigt, ist, wie wir den Verlust der #Artenvielfalt im Moor stoppen und diesen Trend umkehren können“, sagt #Umweltpreis׀trägerin Franziska Tanneberger. Mehr über Moore und Klimaschutz erfahrt ihr im 3sat-Filmbeitrag 👉 youtube.com/watch?v=_SI3Wg…

This is great! NIAID News have launched a collection of public domain illustrations (currently 550 individual icons) bioart.niaid.nih.gov

I´m excited to announce that we have a venue and dates for the next International Congress on Invertebrate Morphology (ICIM-6)! All invertebrate lovers, let's meet in 🇨🇱 next year from August 10th to 14th. 👇👇

New genome out! Here's the first reference genome of a solifuge. Gluvia dorsalis! 😁

Increasing Disconnection of Primary Biodiversity Data from Specimens: How Does It Happen and How to Handle It? academic.oup.com/sysbio/article…

Acceptance of species delimitation/description based on #barcode sequence clustering thresholds is growing yet not without controversy. This paper focuses on the topic while addressing prospects and challenges for #DNAbarcoding in #biodiversity research: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…

🚨 EntoSieve is now published in Molecular Ecology Resources: Fast and accurate size-sorting of bulk insect samples! Perfect for boosting DNA megabarcoding & metabarcoding projects. 🧬🔬 DIY low-cost device, gentle on specimens and yet efficient 🦋🐞 here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Genomics of spiders, especially those related to their silks, is a fast-developing field in arachnology. However, what if the genome is actually from a misidentified species? Find out why we should pay more attention to taxonomy in our latest article doi.org/10.5852/ejt.20…
