Forget describing new species, how often are we adding new genera, families, orders, and classes? New higher-order clades are often "hidden" as symbionts or in less-accessible habitats

Long distance communication is important for life history processes in many species. Long-standing debate exists about the type of evolutionary history and environmental drivers which have shaped the ...

Understanding species interactions is critical for ecology and conservation, yet conventional network construction methods often lack spatiotemporal resolution and important contextual information...
Global biodiversity is increasingly threatened, but still poorly known. Preserving higher taxa (e.g., genera, families, orders) is especially impor...
We use topological data analysis to reveal a persistent morphological gap in a major group of songbirds (superfamily Passeroidea). The gap remained unoccupied for millions of years, even though nearb...

Acoustic indices are not useful for biodiversity research - Sugai - 2026 - Methods in Ecology and Evolution - Wiley Online Library besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
Biodiversity assessment using passive acoustic monitoring has historically been challenging due to the limited availability of multi-species acoustic detectors. In this context, acoustic indices w...

Adding up: ask yourself what happens when hypothetically we all adopt genAI, which is opaque by default, and someone pays whoever controls the algorithm to e.g cite trans people less. Because that's possible and I guarantee that it will happen. Then, what?

I think that a lot of talks in academia refuse to shy away from the classic "intro, methods, results, ..." format, and I think it's very limiting
Talks aren't papers, and don't have to be structured like one! I've been trying out different presentation formats recently and it has been going well🧵
