🥊 #Schistosomiasis ➡️Miki Bálint - @[email protected]🗣️of LOEWE Centre Translational Biodiversity Genomics is currently in Malawi where he is teaching the DNA module at intern. field school. The 🏫is organized+led by Anett Junginger/Universität Tübingen, Christian Albrecht/Universität Gießen+Friedemann Schrenk/Cultural-+Museumcenter Karonga🇲🇼Malawi KAIHATSU Initiative
First major grant officially funded🐟🥳!
We'll investigate the #genomic #evolution 🧬of #climate #flexibility ☀️❄️& use #museomics 🦴🧬to study causes & consequences of #eel #population #collapse 🐟📉.

Exploring European Pond Turtles:
Johannes Meka, PhD candidate from #TBG at #Senckenberg , received a microgrant from #eDNA Collaborative (ednacollab.org). As part of #EmysR , he uses #eDNA to uncover Emys orbicularis turtle behaviour &food web.

How can 🐍 #venom be used to save lives? Dr Dr. Tim Lüddecke LOEWE Centre Translational Biodiversity Genomics and Dr Cecilie Knudsen VenomAid are diving deeper into this topic on applied research of modern #venom ics today: what is venom biotechnology and how do next-generation #antivenoms work! #SBESummerSchool23
Only 6 days left to apply for our Global #Fellowships !🚀
With this program we support early-career scientists from the #GlobalSouth to conduct research at one of our SENCKENBERG institutes.
Looking forward to receiving your applications by 01.10.

Happy to be one of the lecturers and looking forward to teach on how we can use #biotechnology in toxinology and potentially to battle snakebite! See you later🐍
New blog post from micrograntee Johannes Meka SENCKENBERG in Frankfurt, Germany and CNRS is Strasbourg, France! Johannes is part of the Project Emys-R team using #eDNA to understand what European pond turtles eat 🇫🇷🐢🇩🇪🧬
