A good spring for us — another PhD defended.
Congratulations to Dr John Yangyuoru Kupagme, whose work explored the hidden diversity of African fungi 🍄
🌲The forest is connected, but not all substrates are equal from a fungus's perspective. Read more in Meirong Chen et al.'s new paper.

At the BMD High-throughput Biodiversity Monitoring workshop, participants joined a field excursion to Parc Natural de Sant Llorenç del Munt i l’Obac.
@kristelpanksep.bsky.social and Kessy Abarenkov, together with Niels Raes, demonstrated eDNA sampling and camera trap deployment.

eDNA workflow - from sampling to publication to improve biodiversity assessment. This week we had a workflow course at Laelatu Biology Station, see attached photos, held by @kristelpanksep.bsky.social and others.

Last week, our member @irynaya.bsky.social opened a photo exhibition at Kreutzwaldi 5, showcasing the usually invisible world of myxomycetes.
Once thought to be fungi, these organisms go through remarkable life stages—some now visible at the exhibition!

Day 2 of the BMD workshop focused on biodiversity data.
Participants explored tools for analysing camera trap and eDNA data, including demonstrations of ARISE DSI and PlutoF.
