Today I took my lab for a behind-the-scenes tour of the Peabody museum! We got to see the wonderful collections and spend the work day doing something different and fun. Go Fisher Lab! 🎣🎣

Spent the day at the CT state capital participating in Ag Day. Great conversations about monarch butterfly and pollinator conservation.

Entomologists with beekeeping experience: Please apply for the CT State Apiary Inspector! BS level with no residency requirement. Fantastic promotion potential for a MS. Very stable, great benefits, annual increases, union protections, and a great place to work!

Monarch numbers are down to 0.9 hectares overwintering in Mexico. That’s the second lowest population estimate over the last 30 years of monitoring.

All models are wrong. Some models are useful.

My 8yo niece loves rocks and told me she wants to be a geologist when she grows up! Any experts out there want to inspire a young scientist? A “penpal” letter would be really cool!!!

Happy to chat about this opportunity with anyone interested.
I’m hiring a postdoc to focus on bumblebee habitat suitability and space use in CT. Let’s do some genetics, radio telemetry, and spatial modeling together!

**please spread far and wide**

CAES is hiring an assistant scientist II (equivalent to assistant professor, but 100% research) in the area of modeling and data analysis for vector-borne diseases.

Come join my department!
