NEW TODAY in @Nature - A vast DNA tree of life brings open access DNA sequences of >9500 flowering plants! 🧬 This invaluable resource crafted by 279 scientists lets us answer key questions about modern plant life and look back in time to its origins 🌿 nature.com/articles/s4158…
Are you a student (or scientist of any seniority, really) looking for a relaxed and welcoming conference to present your systematics and/or phylogenetics-based reasearch at? Then give our Biennial Meeting a go! systass.org/events/biennia… (1/3)
#Herbarium cabinets being dismantled. It's amazing how much dust can accumulate between closely stacked cabinets - how does it get in there? @Nat_SCA @TheBotanics The cabinets will help @TheBotanics manage their growing collection now that we've moved to Solander boxes. #reuse
We’re excited to have found a sustainable solution for expanding storage @RBGE_Herbarium @RBGE_Science: repurposing old cabinets from @RNGherb. A big thank you to @BotanyRNG for making this possible 🙏

Want to oversee 14 million natural history collections? Apply for Deputy Museum Director of Collections @NHM_Denmark by April 15 to lead a team of 70 people supporting collections care and development in Copenhagen. lnkd.in/diQUeruj
I am *extremely* excited about this. Please share with anyone who might be keen: we're offering a FULLY FUNDED PhD studentship, exploring: Colonial Natural Historical Collecting in the South Asian Indian Ocean. There are some important stories to tell here ccc.cam.ac.uk/cc-ee/students…
Good news: the 🇬🇧 government has announced investment in digital sharing of natural history collections like our own @RBGE_Herbarium of 3m specimens @RBGE_Science @TheBotanics 🌵🌾🌲🪻🌻🌳

DiSSCo UK is a £155 million programme over 10 years, and is part of a wider £473 million investment from the UKRI in research infrastructures. UK natural science collections hold over 137 million items - researchers use them to find solutions to global problems 🌍
At last, a positive outcome for @LinneanSociety and its neighbours @BurlingtonHub, and a win for public access to culture, nature and science.

Two aisles of our grey metal herbarium cabinets will leave @RNGherb for a 420 mile trip to a new home @TheBotanics. Work started at 7.30am #recycle @BotanyRNG @ol1grace @ReadingBioSci Re-use is key to @UniofReading #sustainability policy sites.reading.ac.uk/sustainability/
Hi, I'm Diana, curator for Hemiptera and Thysanoptera with @NHM_SmallOrders. My favourite specimens are on slides - like this female psyllid. To me, preparing a 1mm insect for microscope observation is the perfect junction between science and craftmanship. #Insects

#Herbarium cabinets being dismantled. It's amazing how much dust can accumulate between closely stacked cabinets - how does it get in there? @Nat_SCA @TheBotanics The cabinets will help @TheBotanics manage their growing collection now that we've moved to Solander boxes. #reuse
Job done! The last remaining grey cabinets are cleared, packed and ready to go to Edinburgh Botanic Garden. I'm looking forward to seeing these in their new home later in the year. @TheBotanics @ol1grace @BotanyRNG @ReadingBioSci #HerbariumBarbie has plans for the floor space.
You could also be working on our world-class collections in our world-class herbarium 😀

When I spoke at Wellcome Trust workshop two weeks ago I told delegates that we've demonstrated that genomes of African plant & animal species can be sequenced on-the-ground in Africa, & that African scientists can be targeted at scale as we are doing with workshops & Fellowships
Grateful to @ResEngland for our share of the HEMG award to the @Cambridge_Uni @CamUnivMuseums @CamGLAMresearch. Including £1.73 million to the @CUBotanicGarden, and £190k to the @CUHerb. This will bring our amazing botanical collections to ever broader audiences @plantsci
