Our harbor plastic colonization experiment is now officially underway! Alongside the deployment in Catalonia, the study has also been launched in Marseille thanks to the collaboration of our French colleagues. Excited to see what the results reveal! #inphinit #plastics #invasivespecies

This week Blanca participated in the Larwood meeting in Oslo, where around 40 bryozoologists gathered to discuss exciting new research and exchange ideas on bryozoan biology, ecology, and evolution. #Bryozoa #MedAcidWarm #HOLOCHANGE @minecogob.bsky.social @ageinves.bsky.social

Larwood Oslo 2026 was a meeting of friends old and new! Thank you all! We have discovered so much together and there is so much more fun #bryozoan work awaiting! @bryozoology.bsky.social

Gearing up for my talk later this morning at the Larwood Symposium in Oslo.

Molt contents de la participació en l'activitat sobre plàstics i espècies invasores de la @setmananatura. 🌿 Els plàstics trobats a la platja i a l'aigua ens recorden que encara queda molt per fer, tant a nivell personal com polític. Gràcies, voluntaris i voluntàries! 💙 @icmcsic.bsky.social @ub.edu

Really happy that I can finally attend the Larwood again! Looking forward to reconnecting with many bryozoologist colleagues, some I haven’t seen in a long time, & to listening to the talks in such an interesting program. Thanks @lhliow.bsky.social & @malihr.bsky.social for organizing it! #Bryozoa

Bryozooloigsts! Remember to register for Larwood Oslo 1-3 June 2026 #bryozoa www.bryozoology.org/kopie-von-20... the deadline is coming up fast! Please remind your friends and colleagues!

Vine a la @setmananatura.cat a l’ @icmcsic.bsky.social! #FuturViu Els plàstics que arriben al mar no només contaminen: també poden ajudar algunes espècies marines a desplaçar-se i colonitzar nous llocs. Vols descobrir quins organismes poden viatjar sobre els plàstics marins? Inscripcions aquí👇

We were so happy to welcome sponge taxonomists Javier Cristobo and Pilar Ríos from @gi.ieo.es to @icmcsic.bsky.social! We had the chance to show them our experiment and share our work. We also met their colleague, Florencio González. Such a great visit! #taxonomy #biodiversity

Farewell, Emmanouela! 💙 We couldn’t dive, but we still had such a great time together 😊 It was really nice having you with us. We’ll miss you! Good luck with your Master’s thesis and enjoy the journey ahead 🌍✨

Happy to be joining the #BiodIBErsityDay2026. Looking forward to sharing ideas and learning from researchers working on biodiversity, ecology, evolution, and conservation.
