In the end of November 2022, part of the PHMA members joined Antonelli lab in a workshop at Bacchus Reserve (Nova Friburgo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). We had an intense week together with scientists with different backgrounds, from plants to insects. It was an wonderful opportunity to learn and teach our expertises, to hike in the astonishing Atlantic Forest and discuss science, bringing new ideas for future projects.
Bacchus Reserve is a new protected area in the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil as part of the ARAÇÁ Project set up by Alexandre and Anna Antonelli.
