I love when my lab insists I go to the field with them. A perfect day catching urban species at a beautiful natural site. Hard to believe we never left NYC

Fun new things starting in the lab this summer as we dive deeper into the intersection of urbanization and invasion!
This is an invasive wall lizard from NYC, a project being led by postdocs @annainthefield.bsky.social & @anthonysnead.bsky.social along with our summer REU students and NYU undergrads

So proud of graduating seniors Emerald Lin & Shira Linsk for both winning undergraduate research awards! @annainthefield.bsky.social did an amazing job mentoring Shira on TWO manuscripts on urban moth biodiversity! Emerald is off to work w/Audubon this summer & Shira to a PhD program this fall! 🔥🔥🔥

NYU MS student Rafael Baez is doing super cool work with urban frogs in NYC! Trypanosomes, chytrid, immune function, and natural history. Some truly integrative research! #SICB2025

Didn’t get enough #urbanevolution at #SICB2025 yesterday? I have good news - there’s more! Join us for a complementary talk session this morning in International Salon 5 8:25-9:45 & at the poster session today!

#ProudPI moment: postdocs @vale-alaasam.bsky.social & Anthony Snead co-organized an amazing #SICB2025 symposium & PhD students Fallon Meng crushed her first conference talk!

Missed my mile goal by a bit this year reminding me consistency is the key to success. But 1341 miles running, another 1200 walking, and two marathons (and two world major ⭐️⭐️) is pretty good. Next year I’ll blow past 1500 on my way to a BQ 💪🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🦄

Good day for a 5k PR and got to ring the bell!

Hi new Bluesky people. I study urban evolutionary ecology, catch lizards, run marathons, and have an awesome lab of amazing people at NYU!

Are we all trying this blue sky thing again? Ok. Here’s an Anolis cristatellus

Come see the exciting work my
PhD & MS students are working on at the #SICB2024 poster session today! Fallon is working on how urbanization is influencing the SLF invasion using genomics & Rafael is working on disease ecology of NYC frogs!

Haven’t used this app much, but Winchell Lab will be at #SICB2024, and we have a new lab logo!

Science later. But today, still riding the high of a 25 minute marathon PR at #ChicagoMarathon and my second world major ⭐️!

I’m here! I post about lizards and evolution and running!
