MEGA! 1st record for Greece! Chasing after the recent southeastern winds for potential vagrants really paid off! Cyprus Wheatear, Rhodes island, Greece Reduced white rump (ending at central tertials), short primary projection & recorded song confirm ID compared to Pied.

The birds don't stand a chance. Sticks are coated in a glue-like substance, forming a deadly trap. Known as 'lime sticks', birds land on them, struggle and either die or are killed later by trappers. 60 different species have been trapped this way. #OperationDeadAir

Origins of the ‘vampire fungus’ that causes white-nose syndrome in bats

Nature - An emerging fungal infection is endangering bats in America. DNA analysis reveals that the infection first arose in Europe, mediated by two fungal culprits.

Our project using AI to collate global literature at scale is so exciting and successful. The evidence-based conservation co-pilot is comparable to skilled humans. Is clearly the future of evidence synthesis. Am in awe of our skilled collaborators. cam.ac.uk/stories/ai-and-cli…

Turbocharging the race to protect nature and climate with AI

Rebalancing the planet must happen faster. Cambridge researchers are using AI to help.

Volume up. There goes winter, here comes spring! Greenland White-fronts leaving Islay for Iceland in the half light at 0615h, just the singing Blackbird left behind. Islay will be much quieter for the next 6 months.

A novel #MachineLearning framework—Mal-ID—can decipher an individual’s immune system’s record of past infections and diseases, according to a new Science study, providing a powerful tool with the potential for diagnosing autoimmune disorders, viral infections, and vaccine responses with precision. scim.ag/41xsoQh
B and T cell receptors sequenced from 593 individuals were analyzed through receptor population or “repertoire” composition; clustering CDR3 sequence regions, which determine receptor antigen specificity; and protein language modeling. Disease was classified from this BCR and TCR information with a high multiclass AUROC score in cross validation experiments.
