Dear Students and Graduates,
we present an offer of internships abroad:
The Cyprus Wildlife Research Institute is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the protection and conservation of Cyprus’s native species and habitats.
 

Fossil resins from the Early Eocene period are relatively scarce, with the majority of specimens being found in the Vastan and Tadkeshwar mines in Gujarat province, India. The Cambay amber, which is dated to approximately 54.5 million years ago (Ma), is a notable example.

Our department has become a member of the Tropical Biology Association. The membership gives our students the opportunity to participate in tropical ecology courses organized by the Society (in Uganda for example) and to receive discounts on participation fees. 
The Society also organizes lectures and online courses. We encourage you to check out the Society's website: https://tropical-biology.org/new-specialist-courses/

An international team of scientists, which also includes researchers from the University of Gdańsk - Professor Jacek Szwedo and Błażej Bojarski from the Laboratory of Evolutionary Entomology and Museum of Amber Inclusions, has recently described more species of ants from Miocene Ethiopian amber, the largest collection of which is housed in the Museum of Amber Inclusions at the University of Gdańsk. Thanks to this research, our collection has been enriched with more type specimens representing extinct ants.
