PhD student @LMU & Graduate student @IMPRSBI, studying selection, individual plasticity and behaviour in passerine birds 🐦
The thesis is in! ☺️
Today, I offically submitted my PhD thesis about fluctuating selection, personality and dietary specialisation. Feeling grateful for the support, collaboration, and inspiration from so many people ♥️🐦. I’ll really miss these little guys, but am excited for what comes next.

I haven't seen any starter packs made for behavioral ecology yet, so I decided to create one!

If you are a behavioral ecologist (any career stage), please reply so I can add you to the list so we can more easily find each other.
