Thrilled that our recent paper on #eDNA in rivers is now out in @NatureComms! bit.ly/3x1kQZq With data from 5 rivers (Europe & US), and a year time series, we measured #biodiversity patterns across a range of taxa, demonstrating the powerful insights eDNA can yield 🧵👇

Our new paper measuring large-scale #coralreef restoration success using 3D modelling is out now! Read the summary here 👇 An excellent piece of work led by our Indonesian collaborators at the @MarsGlobal buildingcoral.com project 🪸🐠
Researchers are using cutting-edge technology to create huge digital 3D models of coral reefs to help research and revive them. @rindahvida, @TriesRazak and @TimACLamont explain their methods in the Conversation @LancsUniLEC @lecreefs theconversation.com/our-digi…
My recent #JFB between the covers: "James & the giant perch: fresh framework for understanding gigantism in fish". Great study by Pauly et al & has to be one of my favourite JFB covers!

We are unveiling the “Green Travel Awards” at #FSBI2025! We understand funding and time can be impediments, but we want to encourage greener travel choices and for attendees to share their journey stories/photos on social media with the tag #FSBIGreenTravel. More info soon!
Very excited for the #FSBIGreenTravel award! Having taken the train to Bilbao #FSBI2024, I can't wait to go low carbon again for Belfast #FSBI2025. Already started planning my route! Just one of the great initiatives spearheaded by @otolithgirl to limit @TheFSBI's CO2 🌍❤️🚆⛴️ – at Cardiff, Wales
So excited about this meeting! Also stay tuned at @fsbi_symposium for updates on the inaugral "Green Travel Awards" - a fun but important initiative dreamed up by @DrWillPerry and myself to try and get to meetings with as low an environmental footprint as possible! #ClimateCrisis

New paper & PhD flashback! Led by Ross Cairnduff the paper looked at diverged genomic regions between anadromous & landlocked salmon. Specifically those linked with smoltification. One SNP showed an impact irrespective of fish size (most important trigger) bit.ly/3XmiXjb

It's that time of year when we start thinking ahead to #FSBI2025, which we're super excited to announce will be hosted by @QUBelfast! It will also be the first ever joint symposium with our friends at @IFMFish! Be sure to put 7-11 July in your diary, as it's not to be missed 🐟
Great to be involved in this lovely @WaterRes_J paper led by the brilliant Maggie Knight! Comparing the pros and cons of qPCR v #metagenomic approaches for detecting antibiotic resistance genes in wastewater. Data was from the the widespread Wales sampling doi.org/10.1016/j.watres.202…
