Life Sciences Successful strategies for collaborative species conservation How can the loss of species and habitats in agricultural landscapes be stopped? Up to now, measures have mostly been implemented by individual farms.

However, successful landscape […] Written by Admin February 26, 2025February 26, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Two new crocodile species discovered McGill University researchers, in collaboration with Mexican scientists, have discovered two previously unknown species of crocodiles, one living on the island of Cozumel and the other on the atoll of Banco Chinchorro, both off the Yucatán Peninsula. The findings challenge long-held assumptions about the American crocodile (Crocodylus acutus) and highlight the urgent need for conservation […] Written by Admin May 6, 2025May 6, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Rewrite Longitudinal profiling of low-abundance strains in microbiomes with The ability to detect and quantify microbiota over time from shotgun metagenomic data has a plethora of clinical, basic science and public health applications. Given these applications, and the observation that pathogens and other taxa of interest can reside at low relative abundance, there is a critical need for algorithms that accurately profile low-abundance microbial […] Written by Bioengineer May 6, 2025May 6, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked

Queering conservation In the way that queer theory recognises the importance of fluidity – particularly with regard to identity and sexuality as fluid and changeable phenomena, queer ecology challenges the mindset of ‘fixedness’ that upholds heterosexist notions of fixed identity, sexuality and gender roles. It challenges western science’s rigid categorisation, reductionism with its implicit heterosexist assumptions, and […] Written by brendan May 6, 2025May 6, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
