Check how @Jahnavijoshi2's lab is looking at evolution of biodiversity. And for that they are using novel methods like studying venom diversity of organisms like centipedes. https://t.co/UI1gZV1vu2

what happens when you analyse 20 ecological characteristics, species traits and socioeconomic variables of >300 invasive alien fish species? The profile of the typical invasive fish. Find out in our new paper! 🐠🐟🐡👇 https://t.co/LLGImhIYHg

@_GopiKrishnan is an absolute star. His recent article in SciTales: https://t.co/XR9ZSjvCzg has been adapted by @geetanathvallur for @the_hindu. And this is one of top days, I can proudly recommend research labs to start more #popsci websites + other initiatives.

Biological invasion is a multi-step process that eventually becomes a major threat to biodiversity. First, a species is intentionally or accidentally
My senior PhD Scholar @_GopiKrishnan wrote a nice article as part of his PhD work in the SciTales in our webpage, @TheHinduScience picked up the story written well for its readers. Great! @ccmb_csir @CSIR_IND @SomdattaKarak !

Have you ever imagined your act of freeing your exotic pets into the environment might be actually damaging the ecosystem? @_GopiKrishnan writes for SciTales on the rise of invasive fishes, and the role of aquarium hobbyists in it. https://t.co/ChBQGfTB5r

This 👇is the reason why we should call the issue #biological #invasions (i.e. the process) rather than #invasive #species (i.e. the outcome). We also say ‘climate change‘ rather than ‘temperature’. Let’s rethink our terminology and use proper terms.
Important to keep in mind: The actual problem of biological invasions is not the #invasive #species; the problem is us, humans. We created this problem and we can tackle it. @IPBES #IAS assessment #IPBES10 As said in German newspaper:

July 2023. The importance of character development in scientific research. @J_Cell_Sci The latest in rather interesting trilogy of articles by Martin Schwartz (this one with Alpha Yap). All worth reading and re-reading. Brilliant read ! https://t.co/7PkpJVVcKO

One of the fundamental pleasures of our jobs as professors running university research labs is to see young people come, not quite knowing who they are, and grow into scientists. They acquire...

Don't publish for the sake of publishing. Only publish to move science forward. Quality over quantity. Even if everyone pushes you into the opposite direction.

Bird nests made from anti-bird spikes! 🤯 Even for me as a nest researcher, these are the craziest bird nests I've ever seen. Today my paper came out on this rebellious behaviour. And it's like telling a joke... A thread. 🧵

Often, I have been asked why people do not collect and make money from the plastic in the river, I tell them it is a hard & expensive task to do . Yesterday, I challenged myself- got into the water for one hour to see how much of the recyclable plastic waste I’d be able to gather

As a professor, pursue the careers of your PhD students and postdocs instead of pursuing your own. I know it may sound strange and even provocative. But in fact it is how it’s supposed to be. Unfortunately, a personal gain is the biggest motivation for many professors. More

we want inclusivity in this workshop, and so far our applications are all but diverse. Please send me names of creative scientists that are #WomenInSTEM #DiversityinSTEM #MinoritiesInSTEM #STEMInclusion #LatinXinSTEM #BlackandSTEM #DisabledinSTEM #NativeinSTEM #QueerInSTEM PLZ RT
If you know of original, brilliant ecologists (or other fields!) working on many different topics and always coming out with original studies (eg macroecologists, evolutionists, community ecol, population biol, experts of fluxes and cycles, etc), please MP their contact PLZ RT🙏
