Genetic Biodiversity and G-BiKE COST Action
Get to know the G-BiKE, COST Action (CA18134) that unites European scientists and practitioners in environmental conservation. Our resident scientist, Dr Ciconia nigra, and practitioner, Mr. Fagus will tell you how knowledge about genetic biodiversity, both within and between species, can be employed to protect nature and ensure the resilience of ecosystems.
Monitoring the genetic status of populations
Dr Ciconia Nigra and Mr. Fagus are back on behalf of G-BiKE COST Action to explain how DNA analysis is used in monitoring of the genetic diversity, from the sample collection to data analysis. Learn what indicators can we use to monitor and conserve as much genetic diversity as possible.

What is ENOVAT?
The European Network for Optimization of Veterinary Antimicrobial Treatment (ENOVAT) aims to optimize veterinary antimicrobial use with special emphasis on the development of animal- and disease-specific antimicrobial treatment guidelines and refinement of microbiological diagnostic procedures.
Antibiotic Resistance
ENOVAT’s message on antibiotic use. Let’s keep antibiotics working! This video is available in 25 languages from Mandarin to Bulgarian over on ENOVAT’s YouTube channel.
Why choose IT as a field
In this short video, EUGAIN are showing you some reasons why it is a great idea to choose IT as a field of study and work. The main aim of this COST Action is to improve gender balance in Informatics through the creation and strengthening of a truly multi-cultural European network of academics working on the forefront of the efforts in their countries, institutions and research communities.
Introducing GLYCONanoPROBES
Glycoscience studies the biological roles of carbohydrates and how they can be used in treatment and diagnosis of diseases, to prevent infections and prepare new functional smart materials. COST Action Functional Glyconanomaterials for the Development of Diagnostics and Targeted Therapeutic Probes (GLYCONanoPROBES) brings together glycoscientists across Europe promoting collaboration, knowledge transfer and training for early career stage researchers.
Cognitive decline in Nephro-Neurology with CONNECT COST Action
The aim of this animation is to increase awareness of general public about the relation between kidney and brain and how kidney diseases cause cognitive decline.
Language In The Human-Machine Era
Chair of LITHME Dave Sayers talks about new language technologies, like Augmented Reality for real-time translation of voice (audio) and mouth movement (video) combined in wearable devices. These devices are in prototype now, set for widespread adoption soon, and they will radically change how we communicate with each other, and with machines. For more details on these new technologies and their likely effects on language, see the LITHME forecast report: https://jyx.jyu.fi/handle/123456789/75737
