Almost 800 samples ready for sequencing with help of @BatConIntl scholarship 🙌🏼. Months of work in tiny little volumes of liquid… from catching 🦇 in Zambia and Ghana, to extracting DNA from samples 🧬, amplifying mitochondrial markers, to preparing products 😮‍💨. Off they go🤞🏽

Another #Nipah outbreak. #Bats again in the line of fire. Let's recall that we've been sharing space w/ bats for centuries. Let's find out where the interface betn bats & humans was breached and come up with solid mitigation measures. Killing or culling bats won't solve problems

3rd day Balkan tour at Petrovaradin catacombs in Serbia 🇷🇸 Wonderful how these historical military catacombs serve the bats now. We found 8 🦇 species here during our work – at Novi Sad, Republic of Serbia

Around 80% of African bat species are insectivorous, and @CmMontauban found that many of them consume agricultural pests and disease vectors in Ghana and Zambia. Many shared fieldwork adventures collecting this data 🦇💩🐜 – at Rwanda

Interested in #forestloss effects on #bats and their pest consumption in Ghana & Zambia? I will be presenting at #ICCB2023 tomorrow (Thursday) at 4:30pm in MH1 and would love to chat after. So thankful to @BritishEcolSoc & @BatConIntl for the support to be here!

@ivanabudinski blew us away with crispy photos and the very clear message that transboundary action is critical for effective bat conservation. @ICCB2023
