End of the campaign

Dear backers,

We are extremely grateful for your support, and we appreciate your contributions. However, we couldn't reach our goal and your pledge will not be charged.

But don't worry, we will try to carry out our project looking for others funds. We will keep you informed!

Thanks again for supporting science and conservation! See you soon!

About This Project

Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is causing catastrophic declines in amphibians worldwide. However, its impact varies widely between species and populations with a potential for coexistence in some host-pathogen systems. We aim to identify areas in Catalonia (NE Spain) where Bd is present but has little impact on amphibian populations. Understanding the mechanisms that underlie this coexistence may be key to mitigate the ongoing loss of biodiversity caused by Bd.
