It was a joy to organize and lecture the 2026 edition of the BIODIV Advanced Course “Museum Techniques in the 21st Century” .

This is the second edition at his new home, MUHNAC, the National Museum of Natural History and Science of the University of Lisbon.

It was also great to interact with the team of taxidermists of MUHNAC, Pedro Andrade and Ana Campos, that shared their knowledge and experience on preparing vertebrate specimens.

We had fantastic teachers, in person and online and a collaboration with the Fablab Lisboa
