News about MoSTFun project funded by Biodiversa+ 🇨🇭🇨🇦🇮🇹🇩🇪🇸🇪🇳🇴🇪🇸🇪🇪🇺🇸 "Monitoring Strategies and Tools to address knowledge gaps on aquatic Fungal biodiversity" #aquaticfungi #monitoring www.mostfun.eu https://linktr.ee/MoSTFun_EU

MoSTFun was presented last Friday during the first edition of the SUPSI Department of Environment Constructions and Design (DACD) Research Day by Red Calore. A great opportunity to showcase current projects, get to know one another better and network.

Are you going to @worldbioforum.bsky.social? Consider joining our workshop Developing Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) for Fungi + Microeukaryotes. Fungi and other microeukaryotes drive fundamental ecosystem functions + services, but they’re still missing from most biodiversity monitoring.

MoSTFun PhD student Red Calore enjoyed this morning a 15km run as part of the MOSTFUNACTION team for the #WorldWaterRun. A beautiful stretch between Bellinzona-Giubiasco (Switzerland) along the Ticino River. #aquaticfungi #monitoring #water #WorldWaterDay2026

MoSTFun and FUNACTION joined efforts to celebrate the World Water Day 2026. Team MOSTFUNACTION (lnkd.in/ehJ7sTeQ) is walking, running, cycling or just moving near water to raise awareness about this important resource. Every Km counts! All actions matter to protect WATER! 💧 #WorldWaterRun

Do you understand Estonian? Check out the fabulous @kristelpanksep.bsky.social talking about eDNA! Can’t wait to see what we learn about fish from her ongoing research. It’s a privilege to work with Kristel on fungi in @mostfun.bsky.social & @funaction.bsky.social.

Had the chance to talk about #environmentalDNA! I was on Kuku Raadio's show "Kuue samba taga" and shared how #eDNA samples are helping to solve nature's mysteries. Listen here: kuku.pleier.ee/podcast/kuue... #conservation #KukuRaadio #science
