Virtual EcoEvo is happening tomorrow! We will miss the amazing Brakendale but looking forward to seeing old and new faces tomorrow! ecoevoretreat.wordpress.com @tngrainger @ZoologyUBC @SFUBioSci @UVicENVI @ubco
Was the recent Pondicherry #shark, Carcharhinus hemiodon, sighting confirmed or was it a mis-identification? @WillWhitesharks @spottedcatshark

Whoohoo! Congrats @DaniDogfish!
Congratulations to @DaniDogfish for defending her MASTER of SCIENCE thesis, "Hotspots in the marine realm: The where and why of shark and ray biodiversity"
👇👇A guide for 'evidence communication'. Must read for #scicomm
The oft-encouraged 'story-telling' approach can be problematic for science. Try this framework instead:
👉 Inform, not persuade
👉 Offer balance, not false balance
👉 Disclose uncertainties
👉 State evidence quality
👉 Inoculate against misinformation

Looking forward to this!

Agreed! While I believe the presented solution is overly simplistic and offensive, I value their analysis and the opportunity to advocate for more than citation-based metrics. Also, I respect that the female lead author perhaps has values & perspectives that are diff. than my own

Said goodbye to my old dog this week. She had boundless energy and loved canoeing, hiking, and car rides. It just won't be the same without her!

More needs to be done for migrant workers. This seems to be the bare minimum..
I've asked the Premier to revoke guidance that allows migrant farm workers diagnosed with COVID-19 to continue working.
Over 700 health professionals have asked too.
Migrant workers deserve the same protection as all other workers.

Excellent intervention by Mexico at #OEWG2 pointing out that the Zero Draft of the Global Biodiversity Framework has a Goal for conserving species but no corresponding action Target. Many of the most threatened species need emergency recovery measures. @IUCNRedList
