The event was attended by eight interns (graduate students and staff) from universities, research institutes and fisheries institutions of Borok, St. Petersburg, Syktyvkar, Tyumen, Yekaterinburg and Novosibirsk.
Global warming increases the aggressiveness of soil fungal pathogens, disrupts the structure of local microbiota, and reduces the suppressive capacity of agroecosystems.
Despite the fact that grooming has been studied for many decades, the extent to which its structure depends on the animal's circumstances has remained unclear.
The results are important for predicting ecosystem resilience, preserving biodiversity, and developing ecologically sound approaches to managing natural and agricultural areas.
The expedition conducted visual counts of seals along the entire shoreline of Lake Baikal and assessed the distribution of the animals in areas with varying levels of anthropogenic pressure.
Over the course of 3 weeks, a team of biologists deployed 50 cameras using a specially developed methodology, detailed in the CAMMON Photo Monitoring Program, published by the Central Forest Reserve.
De Winton noted its unusual morphological features when describing the species: "The skull is unusually square and short, and unlike any other gerbil known to me."
This publication is recommended for geographers, biologists, ecologists, and a wide range of readers interested in Russia's natural environment, its biodiversity, and conservation prospects.

Dear colleagues, you can find information on the results of the sections of the conference "Mammals in a Changing World: Current Issues in Theriology" (12th Congress of the V.E. Sokolov Theriological Society of the Russian Academy of Sciences) at the link.
We invite Institute staff and graduate students to join our course on data analysis using Python.
The course is designed to guide students through the entire data science process, from initial tool setup to visualizing results.
The Russian Science Foundation is accepting applications for a competition for fundamental and exploratory genetic research projects, at the request of the President of Russia and world-class scientific laboratories. Competitions have also been announced to extend the deadlines for projects supported by RSF grants in 2023, for research conducted by research groups led by young scientists, and for support of Russian-Belarusian research teams jointly with the Belarusian Republican Foundation for Fundamental Research (BRFFR).
We invite you to participate in a scientific conference dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the birth of Academician Yuri Petrovich Altukhov (October 11, 1936 – October 27, 2006) and continuing the series of traditional population genetics forums held in 2011, 2017, and 2022.
