Happy to share that I'm now a Postdoc fellow in Forestry at @teagascforestry working on the @ADAPTForRes Research Project looking at the adaptation and protection of Irish forests in order to increase their resilience. (Still have to hand in my Thesis at @OxfordBiology lol)

We have sampled DNA from over 1271 trees across 86 native woodland sites. We're using advanced next-gen sequencing to uncover genetic diversity levels in key gene regions that could help our trees thrive in future climates. 🌿🧬#ClimateResilience #ADAPTForRes @NBGGlasnevinOPW

I presented an IMAX movie called Fungi: Web of Life, narrated by Björk who speaks the story with inimitable magic and sensitivity. It features astonishing fungal time lapse photography from some of the best fungal photographers working today. Full trailer: youtu.be/YCf7YywIBZ8

One of the takeaways from Friday's field trip- European Spruce bark beetle (ips typographus) is larger than our native bark beetle (see 👇) but both v.tiny! The right photo shows our native beetles' gallery (+white larvae)-ips t. has a distinct linear pattern like a palm leaf

#ADAPTForRes is researching early detection methods 4 tree pathogens, E.g. fungal endophytes in leaf samples from 3 different tree species-Sessile oak, Scot’s pine and Sitka spruce. Fascinating to see what will grow from within the leaves 👀🤔 teagasc.ie/news--events/d…

Dr. Archie Murchie @AKMurchie highlighting the potential of environmental DNA sequencing in early detection of tree pests and pathogens. This eDNA can be collected from rain water as it drips down through the canopy. #ADAPTForRes Lecture at @ucd_forestry
