A new study has found that it's key tropical crops like #coffee, #cocoa and #mango, that support millions of farmers in the Global South, that are most at risk from loss of #pollinators due to #climatechange and land use – read about it here: https://t.co/XVtIo7h30h

New preprint from PhD work: a deep investigation into dynamics and drivers of evolution of succulent lineages. By far the biggest project I've undertaken, this was a great collab between @NPriestLab, @HdzHdz_Lab and @LabSpiritu, involving several awesome trips to Mexico 1/4

With the results published this year at @CepsJournal we show that, with activities that explore #sexualselection, #elementaryschoolstudents can learn about differential reproduction! Paper at https://t.co/lZ7aQ6T4id
On 2021 an @EuroScitizen team which I included showed that #elementaryschoolstudents can learn about #evolution by #naturalselection but rarely mention the concept of differential reproduction. Full paper at https://t.co/ZVITO1ZlQ5 and video abstract at https://t.co/TqAveB44Tz
