We don't fully understand the complexity of Ecosystem invaded by multiple species
(Spoiler alert: most of them). On top we have other global change factors that affect both invasion and restoration success. A topic also addressed in Mark van Kleunen's presentation

The last keynote of #NEOBIOTA2026 was by Melodie McGeoch on governing biodiversity after the invasion era. Really important presentation given that at some point, we need to address that invasive species are here and managing them all is not realistic.

When your hubby is cited at a presentation 😍

NEOBIOTA is now over 🥹. We were lucky to have our work on the gender gap in invasion science to be the last presentation with people of both sessions present. This has been the result of @scanavan.bsky.social leadership, a great presentation by @mdechoum.bsky.social & amazing working group 💜

It was funny to see that I was 1 of only 2 Feodor Lynen fellows in the Americas that did not go to the US or Canada. Best decision ever to go back to Argentina for some years. I've had the privilege to work with amazing people & learned a lot. Global scores mainly reflect who has more money. #AvH

Snapshot of the #neobiota2026 dinner. A night full of dinos 🦕🦖

If you're still around, also check our presentation at the other session about the gender gap in invasion science. Led by @scanavan.bsky.social and presented by @mdechoum.bsky.social. don't miss out!

Last keynote of ##NEOBIOTA2026 by Melodie McGeoch talking about governing biodiversity after the invasion era. Where are we in the race, and where are we going?

Next #Neobiota will be in Rome!

Presentation by @analuisanunes.bsky.social explaining the workflow for horizon scanning for potential upcoming invasive alien species in the EU. Important: for some of these species, there isn't much impact information that may explain the "surprise" species that don't show in these lists

Christine Sheppard now presenting our paper recently published in Biological Review. We found that competition was the stronger driver of biotic resistance, particularly when non-native species had to compete in competition with native communities. #neobiota2026

Some of his take-home messages 🌎🌱🧪

Day 3 of #NEOBIOTA2026! Morning keynote presentation by Mark van Kleunen going from the macro to the micro.

A journey throughout how databases can help us understand plant invasion success patterns and how these look at the community level.
September 11, 2026 at 8:21 AM
Important talk from @hannoseebens.bsky.social talking about reproducibility in ecology. The key message is that we need to have clear workflows and standards, so that people can pick up our work and be able to reproduce it or use it. One of these challenges relate to species names #NEOBIOTA2026

Now Phil Hulme makes us look into the future speaking about how will global megatrends shape the future of plant invasions. ##NEOBIOTA2026

Interesting to think about these topics that I usually don't work on. What makes a successful concept Innovation? What factors affect value judgement and their resonance? In this example in Scotland, negative perceptions were related to introductions by occupiers.

Day 2 of #NEOBIOTA2026 starting now with a keynote by Anke Fischer bringing the human dimensions of invasions. Exciting!
September 10, 2026 at 7:08 AM
I worked really hard 😅

Nice to share the excursion with good friends 🧡 @mdechoum.bsky.social

The view of the part of the areas cleaned by the project was beatiful. In this area Rosa rugosa was one of the invasive plants that became problematic.

On the second part of the day people got to work and @adriaenstim.bsky.social was crowned the king of the hill of Invasive species we removed 👑😅

Very nice DUNIAS excursion at #NEOBIOTA2026 to a coastal dune system! We learned about this big project that included government, nature protection agencies, gardeners, land owners for the management of Invasive plants.

Maria Loreto Castillo speaks about the use of a combination of the PROTIAS database and Wikipedia entries to understand the social dimensions of plant invasions. Wikipedia articles can help us understand the impacts and conflicts emerging from human-invasive species interactions in protected areas.

Theresa Henke telling us about her work on looking at patterns of public interest for some invasive species of union concern. For some species, this seems to be seasonal. For others, it could be even because of reality show 🦝 #neobiota2026
