🥳 My grad student @amberlsingh.bsky.social successfully hatched her first Italian wall lizard in the lab! Mazel tov ! 🥚 🦎
Time to test the maternal effects of stress and urbanization on behavior and cognition !

My colleague, Rulon Clark, and I are starting a community science project to study urban snake pop genetics across SD county !
We've sent out scale clipping kits but many aren't comfortable clipping scales... If you know of a reliable way to get DNA easily and noninvasively from squamates pls lmk! 🧪

Trying to finalize language for a series of science activism posters.
One of these posters is going to be on the reality that life on earth does not conform to the strict boxes that humans try to place biology into, esp. binaries.
I need a SHORT, accurate, easy-to-understand, slogan for this.

Super excited to see the final paper of my masters thesis come out! If you've ever wondered about rear-fanged snake venoms, garter snakes, and/or the meshing point of ecology and evolution, this one is for you! 🐍🐟🐸🪱

Hi, I'm Earyn, and I'm a lizard scientist! I created a game to teach people about lizards and increase the representation of Black women as herpetologists. #findthatlizard is a Where's Waldo-esque game where there is a lizard camouflaged in its environment. Your challenge is to find it. Will you? 🦎
