ERC Study Day – Interspecifics: Fieldwork Feedback

Fieldwork Feedback May 2023

These days are an opportunity to highlight the work of our PhD students, who have just returned from the field. They come to share the progress of their research, tell their stories, ask questions, and reflect on what comes next. All of this in a supportive atmosphere, surrounded by more experienced researchers who are there to listen, exchange, and offer advice.
These meetings are also a privileged moment to gather those interested in bats, with the presence of invited researchers who enrich the discussions. A time for sharing, collective reflection, and passion for bats.
