excellent day 3 at #ATBC2022 starting off with a fascinating plenary about Janzen-Connell effects and a lovely poster presented by @ento_the_wild. also had the chance to admire the gorgeous sunset in Cartagena after a long day☀️
if you’re interested in pangolins, wildlife trade, or NGS methods in conservation, feel free to come listen to my talk about pangolin trade at 10:30am in Room 304 on the final day (tmr!!) of #ATBC2022!
Day 2 of #ATBC2022! Caught up with the @HKUSBS gang inc. @JDGaitanEspitia’s wonderful talk about snail ecophysiology, and learnt a lot in the DEI symposium! All of this topped off with the unfailingly delicious lunch🥰
Official day 1 of #ATBC2022! Learnt so much about plant-herbivore defensive interactions and host-parasite relationships - and got to sit in on an awesome talk by the boss @bonebraking 🎉 And the lunch was spectacular🥹
Again, can’t wait to see what the rest of ATBC has to offer
also got to participate in the mentoring circle (sadly couldn’t get a photo) and met so many amazing ECRs who I can’t wait to learn from. I’m glad @theATBC is organising events that help grad students and post docs network and get to know each other!
