The Amazon is often seen only as a rainforest.
But it is also a changing system where biodiversity, land use, and ecological processes are closely linked.
Understanding these connections is key to understanding future environmental and health risks. (2/2)

Nature isn’t a chain. It’s a web. 🕸️
When biodiversity declines, the web weakens and disease risk can rise.
Restoration reconnects the web, but the effects aren’t always predictable. (2/2)

Restoration can reduce disease spillover risk - but not in all cases, and not for all pathogens. Shows we need to understand context and mechanism if we want to restore biodiversity to reduce spillover risk
🌱 New blogpost out
Restoring ecosystems can protect biodiversity, tackle climate change, and improve health — but only if done right.
Read how evidence-based restoration can reduce disease risk:

Sweden is one of the most forested countries in the world 🌲
Yet most forests are intensively managed.
Our latest RESTOREID blog explores how management, fires, and restoration impact biodiversity, wildlife—and human health.

Loads of cool stuff is going on in RESTOREID, we are half way through and starting to get really interesting results back. Really looking forward to seeing the results of all the hard work sampling lots of rodents across lots of sites.
Halfway through and we are at the super exciting part of starting to see results from the project, very excited to see what will come out over the next two years
From mines to meadows 🌱
Our fieldwork in Flanders reveals how restoration transforms wildlife — and influences zoonotic risk.

🪰 Mosquitoes spotted in Iceland — a first in history.
A small discovery, a huge warning.
Ecosystems are shifting fast.
Jane Goodall inspired a generation to care for animals and ecosystems. RESTOREID carries that vision forward, restoring biodiversity for a healthier world. (2/2)

In Côte d’Ivoire, we track how vertebrates, mosquitoes & their pathogens change across regenerating forests —
from projects dating back to the 1970s to today. (2/2)
