My 1st first-author paper is out as a preprint! Excited to share the fascinating story of marine-feeding vampire bats 🌊🦇 We found that marine-diet bats were exposed to #H5#AvianFlu 🦠 from marine wildlife and could potentially spread it to livestock via blood feed🩸 doi.org/10.1101/2025.11.09.686930

If we focus on restoring ecosystem processes rather than a reference species assemblage Can we derive general rules? Here we find plant-pollinator networks in grasslands & plant-herbivore ones in woodlands both become more complex with restoration age & area www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
