The team is looking for online volunteers to transcribe specimen labels & make them accessible to biodiversity researchers. Join in: bit.ly/44e2UqB
As a Uni collection not yet in a position to go for this, I've been vicariously living the anxiety & excitement - great to see this level of investment from @ResEngland. Massive congrats to all those receiving good news, especially new entries among my @CamUnivMuseums friends
@ResEngland has announced the results of the HEMG funding review with the overall good news of a 20% increase in the fund. Congratulations to new recipients, and we will be reaching out to those who received less positive news today. Details here: ukri.org/what-we-do/bro…
Warning: transcribing these labels via Zooniverse becomes addictive... Go on, give it a try...
Our newest Zooniverse project is ready for citizen scientist volunteers! By transcribing herbarium specimen labels, volunteers add to biodiversity big data for research. Visit our Zooniverse page to get involved! tinyurl.com/4ary9fbp @plantsci @CamUnivMuseums @CamGLAMresearch

🌿 Wonderful to hear the fantastic @AnneDubearnes enthusing about the wonderful world of herbaria @plantsci, her research on the genus Embelia, her current work here on type specimens & our @Cambridge_Uni Herbarium 🌿 @Cambridge_SBS @CamGLAMresearch @CamUnivMuseums @TCD_NatSci
@timutteridge Herbarium loan officers (me) do prefer the loans to be returned in a timely manner and not all at once! Preferably well determined in clear handwriting if not typed!
Top tip: determine loans and send them back in a timely manner. #herbarium #taxonomy
I will be forever grateful to @timutteridge for giving me a place on the Tropical ID course, during which, I went into labour half way, but he kept my certificate until I got back from mat leave 🥰 thank you for all you’ve taught me (a zoologist!) & will miss our food talks!
We were sorry to say farewell to the brilliant botanist @timutteridge who leaves @KewScience after 30 years. Best wishes for your new life at the #SingaporeBotanicGardens Tim will be the director of science & keeper of the herbarium so continuing to botanise in SE Asia. @Kew_Asia
Thank you @claredrinkell for the awesome mug, perfect for Herbarium tea breaks @kewgardens #HerbariumHandbook
