My recent article in @QRevBiol on how AI might influence human evolution is intended as a conversation starter. But it runs >16k words. Before you make that commitment, see this quick intro at @ConversationEDU. Then stay for the paper.

Evolution could alter or even eliminate some of the human traits we cherish most, changing forever what it means to be human.

2/2 The report, launched at the #COP16 Convention on Biological Diversity, is a world-first assessment of global kelp forests, which are found across a third of the worldâs coastlines, and the findings highlight the need to accelerate kelp conservation. https://t.co/Pabs1M1ZQX

New research often revises species taxonomies. Without a clear crosswalk, old datasets & studies can be challenging to amalgamate. #R package APCalign helps solve this, aligning names to #AustralianPlantCensus. Elizabeth Wenk & colleagues @UNSW @unswbees

To facilitate communication, research projects, biodiversity assessments and nurseries across Australia should use the scientific names accepted by the Aus
