We find that miniaturization has evolved multiple times in gobies! It is especially prominent within the dwarfgobies (Eviota spp.), pygmygobies (Trimma spp.) and the infantfishes (Schindleria spp.). Shoutout to @lifesciencestudios.bsky.social for providing these beautiful goby illustrations!

These posters now hang on tuna fishing boats around the world in an effort to help reduce manta ray and devil ray mortality.

I worked with the Mobula Conservation Project to create posters in multiple languages that would show the different species, their distribution, why it is important to protect them, and proper handling and release techniques.

Incorporating both the illustrated conceptual images or diagrams alongside data can be really effective for guiding a reader through the key information.
Plus... guppies are pretty cute and why not include a few to adorablify your data.

The figure also needed to include a map with the data types and locations that informed their model.
I created this figure in the thick of the pandemic when social distancing was on everybody's mind. Here, I had the chance consider social distancing and disease (or parasites) in other organisms.

Thank you!
Such a good book, especially as someone whose family members and friends have had organ transplants, amputations, knee replacements, cataract surgeries, and facial bone surgeries. As far as I know, no butt lifts among my acquaintances… probably.
