Our research groups was well represented at the European Congress for Conservation Biology (ECCB 2022) which took place last week in Prague, Czech Republic! Our lab members Lisanne, Gaby and Stephanie joined the conference to present some of their current research, encompassing diverse topics: from plant diversity in fallow fields, to prairie dog disturbances in semiarid grasslands, and landscape-mediated effects of agri-environment schemes on bird habitat suitability. The conference was a great place to disseminate some of our latest research findings, to make new connections, and to get inspired by the other attendees. We thank all the organisers and look forward to the next ECCB in 2024!
