Biophobias—fear of nature’s elements—don’t just impact mental health. They ripple through wildlife and public health, ecosystems & culture. We argue: it's time to frame biophobias as a One Health issue, tackling them with integrated solutions.

New paper in @peopleandnature.bsky.social exploring social media filtering role of news on spiders

doi.org/10.1002/pan3...

➡️ Sensationalism—not accuracy—drives social media shares
➡️ 53% news articles are never shared
➡️ Harmless spiders get ignored

Subterranean ecosystems are key to water, climate, biodiversity & more. But to what extent?

A @ecoevorxiv.bsky.social preprint led by @biodiversa.eu DarCo shows they contribute to 75% of classified ecosystem services by CICES:

My latest @newscientist.com cartoon
Title: SOME GRAMMATICAL VOICES FOR USE IN SCIENTIFIC WRITING ACTIVE VOICE e.g. Our team collected samples and then we tested them. CLICKBAIT VOICE e.g. We collected some samples... You won't believe what happened next! PASSIVE VOICE e.g. Samples were collected and tested. HAIKU VOICE e.g. Quiet science lab. Workers arrive with samples. The testing begins. PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE VOICE e.g. We did all the collecting and testing. No need to thank us. Just doing our job. CONSPIRACY VOICE e.g. Mysterious "Samples" were harvested and covertly "tested" by so-called scientists.

The wonderfully talented post-doc Sven Iburg, who was working with me in the last two years is seeking a new positon, pref BENELUX area. Let me know if you have any openings or suggestions! He is a true alrounder, really good both in the lab and with bioinformatics. meg.irsa.cnr.it/index.php/pe...

Trait-based approaches are crucial in ecology, but analysis choice matters! Choosing functional diversity metrics to better assess ecosystem changes.

Last Orders! If you'd like to but anything from me (such as this drawing) in time for Christmas please get your order in now. My shop closes next week. www.tomgauld.com
An ink drawing by Tom Gauld Image: A bedroom at night, a face is lit up by the glow of a phone screen displaying cat memes. On the book-cluttered bedside table, three books look on angrily. The lead book waves a large knife and says: "Nobody needs to get hurt... Let's just put the phone down, nice and slowly..." Caption: Bedside reading pile turns nasty
