Nothing hits like a paper acceptance email coming in after a long day in the field!!! 🥂🥂 Exciting (long overdue) paper coming your way soon :)

mushroom season is keeping me sane in this final phd push! Saffron milkcaps, chanterelles, and dryad's saddle!

6 years in Scotland and I only just found out about one of the most fossiliferous beaches in the UK! Lots of crinoids, solitary corals, and bryozans 🤩

just wondering! But Springer Nature does allow for open access in another form other than the wild APC

I cannot be ending the year losing my mind like this

finishing trait compilation before the holidays feels damn great

what do you MEAN these are gobies?????

hey all, just coming out of my fieldwork haze and working through following folks back! A short intro: I'm a community ecologist working on diversity-productivity relationships in coral reefs :) Method development is my jam and I dabble in macroecology and ecoinformatics as well

Data collection for my last two PhD chapters are underway!

If you're as picky about how RStudio looks, I've been working on some full IDE styling themes! Flatter, cleaner, less web 2.0. And feel free to send suggestions/contributions! I love a little procrastination here and there.

Please help RT 🐠🪸🧪 Data request + collaboration: I'm looking for data collaborators on a global reef fish study! This is a long shot, but I'm trying to better include data collectors outside of the usual orgs/locations. Please DM for more details.

PhD project alert! 🚨 My PI is recruiting a PhD student to join our lab to work on integrating niche theory for corals. We do lots of fieldwork and like to use quantitative approaches :)

Deadline is Feb 9, 2024! Details and application here:

there are two kinds of methods papers...
1) the method paper for clout
2) the method paper so people can actually follow and use to learn a new method

write 2! 2 will always be better!!! 🧪

The lab pulled out all the stops for a croquembouche tree in the department Christmas bake-off! Featuring fish and coral baubles and a caramel staghorn coral, of course 👩‍🍳🐠🎄

parents are the frontier of scicomm... my bridge to marine bio for my mom was seafood and here we are! debbie downer!

hey guys! new migrant over from the birdy place :) I'm Cher (exactly like the singer). I'm a community ecologist interested in diversity-productivity links on reefs, happily juggling tropical corals and fish 🪸🐠 90% of the year, I call St Andrews in Scotland my home
