The Botanics looks forward to hosting the next Botanical Society of Scotland's lecture on 19 November featuring Prof. Thomas Meagher.
In order to meet the challenges of global biodiversity loss, there is a pressing need to bring together expertise from different disciplines. There is also a pressing need for collaboration across international boundaries to address and reverse biodiversity loss in different social and political contexts.
This talk will address work done by the international and interdisciplinary research team that he has led to explore implementation of novel technology for biodiversity analysis.
Professor Thomas Meagher's work has also addressed biodiversity on a policy level in the UK, Brazil, Perú, and elsewhere. This talk will also address work being done to develop research programs in these different countries to support evidence-based policy for biodiversity conservation.
