Check out our latest paper in Nature on "The global human impact on biodiversity".

Our study ‘The global human impact on biodiversity’ is out in Nature!

Through an unprecedented synthesis (2133 studies!) we show that humans are not only shrinking species numbers—but reshaping entire communities across the planet. 🌍🌐🐟🌿🪲

Probably most exciting events in academic life are defenses of #PhD projects and release of PhD theses. Last fall 4 of my students defended their theses (by #MaraKnüsel #RebeccaOester @kirschdo.bsky.social & #HengZhang). Now all their theses are printed. A condensate of ecological knowledge! 🧬🔬🐟🦐🍂

I am excited to share the first output of my PhD! We explored how intense land use affects fish 🐟 diversity in China's Shaying River basin using #eDNA #metabarcoding
