As an early career researcher, she sees @wimanet.bsky.social as an exciting opportunity to connect with experts, gain insights that can strengthen her work, and set a strong foundation for her future career in wildlife disease ecology 🌐. Know her more here 👉 www.youtube.com/watch?v=8t7W...
Ana's work examines both intrinsic factors, such as uropygial gland secretions and life history traits, and extrinsic factors, including environmental conditions 🏞️🏙️ and the composition of host and vector communities 🦟🪰+🦆🐦⬛
Today, the interview features #AnaIrinaMartínLópez, a PhD student at @ebdonana.bsky.social in Seville, Spain. Her research focuses on characterising the factors that influence the transmission dynamics of avian malaria 🦠 and other pathogens in mosquitoes and birds like West Nile virus 🦟🐦
Here we go again with the interviews 🎙🎥 recorded during the second #WIMANET workshop held in Lithuania about what our members do 📰🆕 #meetWIMANETmembers
In this interview, Vaidas highlights that his main motivation for joining WIMANET was to build connections ↔️ and to have a platform to share his experience with the new generation of researchers 🤝. Press ▶️ and know more about him: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyQN...
He works on haemosporidian parasites, with a particular focus on avian malaria parasites🐦🦠. His research includes species identification, the study of host–parasite interactions, and other key aspects needed to understand the dynamics of these infections in wildlife ♻️🗺️
We are happy to present to you #VaidasPalinauskas, chief researcher at the Nature Research Centre in Vilnius, Lithuania, and a team member of all of our Working Groups! 🦟🦠🐦
Today we continue with the interviews 🎙🎥 recorded during the second #WIMANET workshop held in Lithuania about what our members do 📰🆕 #meetWIMANETmembers

People from #WIMANET are publishing! 🥳
Check this new interesting paper by @olofhellgren.bsky.social ⤵️
We invited you to ⏯, stay 3 minutes with us and know more about his work! 👇

He is a PI working at the @ebdonana.bsky.social, Seville, Spain, studying how different vector characteristics, like their microbiome🦠, diets 🌺 or environment 🏙, can influence the transmission of avian malaria 🐦.
Today, we start with @jmartinezpuente.bsky.social, the leader of Working Group 3 "vector transmission success in wildlife malaria" 🦟🪰

Here you can see a short video about all the things we did during the #SummerSchool in Vilnius! 😊🔬🦠🦎🦅🦇
Day 2 of the @wimanet.bsky.social workshop starts with @olofhellgren.bsky.social giving us some fascinating insights into within-infection genetic diversity
Great to hear so much about results from @wimanet.bsky.social funded short term scientific missions during this workshop! Next up Alexandra Corduneanu talking about bat haemosporidian-microbiome interactions
Oskar Werb has participated in the 2nd Summer Training School of the Wildlife Malaria Network (WiMaNet), taking place from August 18–22 at the Life Science Centre of Vilnius University. We’re thrilled that he has been part of this inspiring international event! #WIMANET
Today we started interviews with a representative group of @wimanet.bsky.social researchers 🎤✨ It was engaging, fun, and we’re excited to share them soon 🚀 Thanks to WG6 for making this possible!
#WIMANET #WG6 #Research #ScienceCommunity #Networking 🌍🔬💡
Most importantly, the people that had an #STSMs shared their experience with all of us 🧳✈️ and also the results from the first #SummerSchool 👩🏽🏫 showing the importance of #WIMANET actions!
During these days, all the working groups updated their objectives and what they have achieved so far! From both #WG leaders and the participants
From the 25th to the 28th of August we enjoy the second #Workshop of #WIMANET!
This week has been just a pleasure for both teachers and students. Another successful #SummerSchool of teaching and learning a lot thanks to #WIMANET! 🦠🔬
Last day of #SummerSchool the students finished their projects and did really good presentations!
It was the most difficult part of summer school... They were everywhere but we couldn't see it! 🫣
We learnt about the different staining techniques you can use to find parasites and went to the hands-on practice 🔬
The third day of the #SummerSchool was entirely dedicated to the tissue stages of haemosporidians 🫀🧠🫁 Both #MelanieDuc and #TanjaHimmel did really a great job!!
