The Coalition for Conservation Genetics

👋🎉Introducing The Coalition for Conservation Genetics🌍🧬 Read all about The Coalition in our OA paper, where we are working across organizations to coordinate efforts, build capacity and achieve change in #ConservationGenetics policy and practice. conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/cs…

Conservation strategies aided by assessment of global genetic diversity nature.com/articles/d4158…

Re-evaluation of current conservation approaches and new strategies are needed to maintain global #biodiversity at the genetic level to safeguard the genetic species resilience of life on Earth says @Noguesbravo & @Carsten_Rahbek in @Nature🧬👇 nature.com/articles/d4158…

🔥 Do you know what a #biodiversity #hotspot is? This month’s #Connections blog explores how @BioGenEurope is generating genomic resources for these vital areas by promoting #bioblitzes with the support of #citizen scientists 🔎 👉 erga-biodiversity.eu/post/connectio… #conservation

Today is #EndangeredSpeciesDay. The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™ now includes 169,420 species, of which 47,187 are threatened with extinction. The @IUCNRedList is a critical indicator of the health of the world’s #biodiversity. iucnredlist.org

🔔🎙️ New episode of #GenomicConnections! Tech for #Biodiversity: the role of DNA sequencing in species #conservation 🧬 Featuring an interview with Claudio Ciofi from @UNI_FIRENZE 🎧 Listen here: erga-biodiversity.eu/post/genomicco… @iBOLEurope @BioGenEurope @EBPgenome

22 May is #BiodiversityDay 🌱 Join the global celebration! Let’s build a future where people and planet thrive together 🌍 Learn more: cbd.int/biodiversity-d…

#DYK ? 🌍The 23 targets of the #KMGBF are the roadmap to halt biodiversity loss by 2030, focusing on reducing threats, promoting sustainability, and connecting climate, land, and pollution efforts to protect nature and people. ➡️cbd.int/gbf/targets

🧬 Happy DNA Day! Today we celebrate 2 milestones in #genetics: the discovery of the iconic DNA double helix structure by Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, Francis Crick and Maurice Wilkins in 1953 and the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003. #DNAday #genomes @EBPgenome

The term #Biodiversity encompasses all life forms - from ecosystems to species and the #genetic makeup of individual organisms 🌍 #Genomics helps us explore this essential genetic component 🧬 Learn more ➡️ erga-biodiversity.eu/post/on-the-or… @UNBiodiversity @BioGenEurope @iBOLEurope

#ERGAReads | Integrating #GeneticDiversity into #NatureRestoration Policy: this review highlights how genetic diversity - often overlooked in conservation policies - can strengthen the EU’s Nature Restoration Regulation and global #biodiversity efforts. 🔗doi.org/10.1016/j.bioc…

🚨REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN for #LivingData2025, the conference bringing together @tdwg, @GBIF, @OBISNetwork and @GEOBON_org in Bogotá. Join us at this event dedicated to advancing data standards, community engagement, and biodiversity monitoring. ➡️ livingdata2025.com/registration.h…
