Happy International Day for Women and Girls in Science! A diverse, equitable and inclusive society means a better future for everyone. It’s a shame not everyone understands this.

Terrestrial Environmental DNA (eDNA) Sampling Method: Roller Aggregation YouTube video by Rutgers eDNA Lab

The Rutgers eDNA lab developed a novel method to collect #eDNA from tree surfaces that we call the 'roller method'. A game-changer for monitoring terrestrial forest biodiversity (insects, vertebrates). Here is a short methods video if you want to try it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2306...

A horizon scan of biological conservation issues for 2025 We discuss the outcomes of our 16th horizon scan of issues that are novel or represent a considerable step-change and have the potential to substantially affect conservation of biological diversity in the coming decade. From an initial 96 topics, our international panel of 32 scientists and practitioners prioritised 15 issues. Technological advances are prominent, including metal and non-metal organic frameworks, deriving rare earth elements from macroalgae, synthetic gene drives in plants, and low-emission cement. We include new insights into accelerated impacts of changes to Antarctic ice masses and air and water quality. We hope that anticipating and mitigating negative impacts, and making best use of new opportunities related to these issues, will contribute to better outcomes for biological diversity.
