At last week’s ZSL Scientific Meeting, “Saving Species on the EDGE: From Theory to Practice”, Nick Isaac and Arne Mooers discussed for the first time, the theory behind the EDGE programme and the methods we have used to identify the world’s EDGE species.
If you were unable to attend the talks, or if they have inspired you to learn more about the science behind EDGE, take a look at our newly published methods paper Mammals on the EDGE: Conservation Priorities Based on Threat and Phylogeny. The paper has now been published in the open access science journal ‘PLoS One’, and can be viewed online here.
