PhD Candidate University of Melbourne 🇦🇺 Previously at McGill University and University of Alberta 🇨🇦 I use Paramecium microcosms to experimentally test Species Distribution Model performance in non-equilibrium conditions.
Experiment underway! While it may not look like the ecosystems we’re used to, these tiny dishes are being used to generate data to test relative performance of different SDMs in “ideal” conditions.

Had a great time presenting my review on the contribution of microcosm experiments in conservation biology at #ESAus2024 !! Fantastic and engaged room for Methods 1

Great talk by @sternetal.bsky.social at #ESAus2024 on the role that microcosm experiments can play in conservation. Headlines - these experiments are taken up surprisingly often in research and policy!
