Back home in Northern Ireland for Liverpool John Moores University @ljmuofficial.bsky.social Applicant Day. Such a wonderful experience getting to meet potential new students and their families. #inspired #nextgeneration #HiltonHotelBelfast #LJMUNIAppDay25

Yesterday I was welcomed back to @ljmuofficial.bsky.social by the legendary @monicamcc.bsky.social to give a lecture and practicals on marine #microplastics. I spent a year of my PhD at #LJMU and it was surreal to be back after 5 years. I’ve missed it so much! Thank you Kostas, Jon and Monica!

It was amazing having you here and reminiscing about working together at @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social. The students are lucky to have gotten to meet you and talk about a jam packed day, we really put you to work!!! Loved it 😃 #LJMU

Food fight: Gammarus tigrinus demonstrate competitive advantage over native G. duebeni Introductions of non-native species (NNS) are major drivers of biodiversity loss. Gammarids (Crustacea, Gammaroidea) have been particularly successful in establishing and spreading in their non-native...

In a battle for resources, the invasive amphipod Gammarus tigrinus outcompetes the native G. duebeni, showcasing behaviours that fuel its invasion success.
