Great way to combine your daily exercise with some valuable #CitizenScience in #Chester, and also a lovely reminder to just slow down and enjoy the world around you! 🌿🌳🐜🪲🐌🕷️🐦🪱🦆🐀🌼
@ChesterSciBar @ShitChester @GFNChester @ChesterConsBio @ChesterSciComm @BioSciChester
Please get involved with this if you visit the #CountessPark! It will really be helping out scientific research & the creation of an amazing habitat!

Out in Early View today, paper with @achazhardenberg. Distribution of White-faced darter - a declining dragonfly species. Thanks to @BDSdragonflies and @ScotlandBds for all their help.
White‐faced darter distribution is associated with coniferous forests in Great Britain onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Well done to Susie Phillips on our new paper with @CheshireWT @ARC_Bytes that finds evidence of inbreeding in reintroduced populations of a protected amphibian and supports further management actions to ensure survival. With @lovethedove11 @Rachjb27 @MattGeary
Just published today by Phillips et al. as Open Access in The Herpetological Journal "The importance of long-term genetic monitoring of reintroduced populations: inbreeding in the natterjack toad (Epidalea calamita)"

Hopefully all will run as planned but contingencies will be built in, just in case...

Trying to get better at communicating my research! So here's the blog post I've written about what I've been up to lately! 🐬🧬chesterconsbio.group/blog/

Tonight I’ll be talking science in a pub. Obviously my excitement about conservation genetics will be correlated with, but not caused by, the fact I’ll also be drinking a pint #WomenInScienceDay #DarwinDay
Continuing with #WomenInScience theme, @AnnaPMuir & I will be sharing our @BioSciChester @uochester research with the people of #Chester TONIGHT @commonhall @ChesterSciBar - free to attend. Learn more about animal #networks & #conservation #genetics - in a pub!

Heading to @BangorSNS to give a seminar on Urban parrots today. Not a bad train ride from chester one a day like today...
Chester Conservation retweeted
What are you going to be doing this time next week?
What's that?
Looking forward to the re-launch of @ChesterSciBar? Me too!
Come along to @commonhall
to hear @AnnaPMuir & @crstanley_rsrch talk about their research.
It's science 🧪, in a bar 🍻!
