My (not so) side project is now out in @iScience_CP! Here, I tackle key gaps in traits in Philippine species, and its potential conservation implications.

In the newest episode of #InsideBiodiversity, host Volker Hahn speaks with macroecologist Shai Meiri about how public perception shapes reptile research and conservation. 🐢 🦎
Meiri explains that many reptiles — especially snakes — are seen as dangerous or undesirable. 🐍 This perception has real consequences: fewer monitoring projects, less funding, and large gaps in global data.

No scientist is equally strong at ideas, experiments, statistics, figures, and writing. Identify what you do well, improve weaknesses that matter, and collaborate where others contribute complementary strengths.

You spent months doing the research and writing the paper. Do not rush the final 20 minutes. Suggested reviewers, the cover letter, journal fit, submission questions, and formatting all shape an editor's first impression.

Finally, our latest paper in all its splendor! 😍

Our preprint shows that LLMs can accelerate biodiversity data mobilisation, achieving >90% accuracy and >90% time savings. Performance varies across taxa, reinforcing that AI works best with human oversight through a human-in-the-loop approach. cup.org/4gHK55V

So I made some more progress on my theoretical ecology book and the first 3 chapters are now partially completed and #openaccess. It includes an incursion into using #R for symbolic math! Link in the reply.

What if species survive, but their behavioral diversity dissapear?
Our paper in @ScienceMagazine argues that behavioral homogenization is an overlooked form of biodiversity loss, and that global biodiversity monitoring should start measuring it.

Biodiversity is vanishing, but are we even paying attention?
This comment compared global media coverage of COP15 (biodiversity) with COP27 (climate) and…
Taylor Swift.
The results are shocking.

🌿 We may be losing more than plant species to extinction.. we may also be losing unique chemistry
This new study asks how much of the chemical diversity of threatened plants we actually know
The answer?
Surprisingly little.
