Thanks to everyone who came by to chat about the #GLANSIS Social Science Data Hub at tonight’s poster session! I’ll be co-chairing tomorrow morning’s session on #InvasiveSpecies research and communication (and yes, the lamprey will be there too.) #IAGLR26

#GLANSIS got a facelift, go check it out! My whole team will be at #IAGLR26, so if you want to talk #GreatLakes invasive species data and where to host it, come find us in person in Winnipeg!

Exciting news: the #GLANSIS database has a new look! The Great Lakes Aquatic Nonindigenous Species Information System has the same functionality #AIS researchers know and love, with improved navigation and new features for scientists + educators. Check it out here: www.glerl.noaa.gov/glansis/
Screenshot of the new GLANSIS landing page, featuring drop-down menus, a featured "species of the day", a list of statistics, and the quick species search function.

I’m presenting a poster on the new social science hub at #IAGLR26! My graduate work was based on secondary analysis of #GreatLakes social science data, so I know exactly how valuable it is. Got some you wanna share? Drop me a line!
miseagrant.bsky.social Michigan Sea Grant @miseagrant.bsky.social · May 14
Another new resource is the #GLANSIS social science data hub, a repository of project results, final reports, and anonymized datasets on #GreatLakes social science projects available for secondary analysis. We're always looking for more data to add! www.glerl.noaa.gov/glansis/soci...

A friend got me this plush sea lamprey “for emotional support” and you better believe this guy will be coming with me to Winnipeg next week for #IAGLR26!

Are you a #GreatLakes #InvasiveSpecies researcher or communicator planning to attend #IAGLR26 in Winnipeg? Submit an abstract to our Session 19 by December 19! bit.ly/4nTTfxz
@iaglr.bsky.social #AIS
19. Invasive Species Research and Communication Invasive species are a leading threat to native species and biodiversity, are an important driver of global ecological and evolutionary change, restructure food webs, and have caused significant economic damage to aquatic ecosystems. This session welcomes presentations reflecting a broad array of aquatic invasive species research in aquatic ecosystems, including ecological, economic, social science, communications, education, and evaluation research. Presentations about efforts to connect invasive species research to lay audiences (community science, education, etc.) are also welcome. Chaired by: Rochelle Sturtevant, El Lower

Thank you so much to everyone who showed up to the #iaglr26 2SLGBTQIA+ Social! It was so nice to hang out with you all. It is so rejuvenating to be in community with queer folks, even just for an evening.

And the venue said our group was great to host, so that's always nice to hear!
