🔬 Day 1 of #BioMonWeek2026 is underway!

Berta Companys kicked off presenting the BioMARathons during the session "Citizen science for biodiversity monitoring," sharing more about how they transform #marine #biodiversity monitoring along European coastlines. 🌊

More updates coming later today! 👀

🤩 ANERIS and the BioMARathons were strongly featured during the 59th edition of EMBS.

Our partners participated with a presentation titled BioMARatona: Leveraging Citizen Science for Intertidal #BiodiversityMonitoring and a poster.

BioMARathons work because they compress observation into a community event. The monitoring becomes something done together. Along European coastlines, coordination matters because marine biodiversity does not respect national borders. The citizen is the sensor, and the marathon is the calibration.
