I even plucked up the courage to present some work from my second chapter, investigating whether sublethal pesticide exposure impacts antipredator behaviour in my cricket system 🦗

Thanks to everyone for the lovely feedback and questions! 🧪

Thank you to everyone that organised and attended the ECR & PGR Symposium at @uniexecec.bsky.social yesterday!

I had a wonderful time hearing about research about manta rays, fish personality, nature recovery mapping, how heat waves impact eggs and more 🎓

The first preprint from my PhD is out! 🌱🦗
We studied how wild field crickets respond to repeated stressor exposure, finding trait-specific patterns in behavioural plasticity 📈📉

Hi, BlueSky! 🦋

I’m Emily - a PhD student at @uniexecec.bsky.social (Cornwall, UK) studying stress. At the moment, my work is focussed on response adaptation to internal and external stressors in an invertebrate system 🦗
