BioIntakt Spring School excursion to @jki-research.bsky.social
Inspiring insights into AI in plant protection, plus demos on insect rearing, acoustic monitoring, including the "magic sound box", and field sampling methods.
Thanks to the JKI team for a great experience!

From field to code: our speakers shared diverse perspectives on ecoacoustics — from fieldwork realities to computational challenges.
We wrapped up with a hands-on programming session turning theory into practice. Exciting days ahead!
Great start to the BioIntAkt Spring School! 🐝🐦🐟
Day 1 kicked off with an inspiring poster session covering passive acoustic monitoring across forests, agroecosystems, aquatic systems, and computational challenges.
Thanks to everyone for the relaxed, inspiring atmosphere and great exchange 💚
📢 Die Zukunft der EU-Agrarpolitik beeinflusst die Artenvielfalt in Agrarlandschaften.
Bei „Akademie im Gespräch“ der Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Göttingen diskutieren Catrin Westphal, Sebastian Lakner und Claus Hartmann. Publikumsbeteiligung willkommen!

📢 New publication in Ecology Letters!
🐝🌼 🐝 Viral prevalence in multispecies bee communities is driven by multiple key hosts, not single dominant species. Whole-community network structure is crucial when managing pollinator health.

This week in our #Hymenoptera identification course, students observed live how #Parasitoid wasps of the genus Lysiphlebus parasitize aphids — directly in their own petridish. 🐝👀
For us, this is what university #Teaching is about: Connecting theory, observation, and real-world application 📚🔬🌍
🔔Just a quick reminder!
The open postdoctoral researcher position is still waiting for the right candidate. 🧪

Landscape composition determines reproductive success: more cropland and forest reduce brood cell numbers.
The results highlight how local plant communities and land use shape specialist bee #conservation and could guide grassland #restoration.

New article led by Evan T. Sloan🐝
Pollen metabarcoding shows strong preference for Cichorioideae in the specialist bee Osmia leaiana.
Foraging patterns are driven by local flower abundance and nearby semi-natural grasslands.
