Ok that’s it, I’m done. Can’t support a platform of someone who spouts such toxic nonsense. I’ll really miss the awesome science and community. See you on LinkedIn maybe?

Continuing introductions! 🍃 I’m Clare Cowgill and I’ll be looking at monitoring terrestrial #rewilding using environmental DNA #eDNA. I previously studied the impacts of beavers @lowthercastle and spent last year spreading the rewilding love as a fundraiser for @Natures_Voice

Introduction time! 🍃 I’m Charlie Trotman, researching Natural Regeneration of saltmarshes and carbon storage. My background is in #rewilding and #carbon, having done previous research projects at Knepp. I’m excited to continue breaching the gap between conservation and carbon

Another introduction! I’m Matthew Morgan, researching urban blue and green spaces in #Hull. My background is in marine and terrestrial ecology, and has mostly involved working on long-term research projects. I am passionate about the benefits of #urban #biodiversity for society.

The vast developments of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods to serve as a cost-effective, nonlethal tool for fish biomonitoring in lotic waters are still limited by empirical insights and challenges...

Loved the #eDNA demonstration with carrots, peas & soup by @ChrisGPackham on @BBCSpringwatch. My PhD student @tom_spencer42 @hullbams uses eDNA to study beaver impact at @wildkenhill & other sites. DM us if you’re interested to know more!
