Do you know a recent grad who is invested in educational equity and student belonging? We have an open position for a post-bac at @Trinity_U, funded by our HHMI ie3 grant, that we're hoping to hire this summer!

"A lot of men are happy to support and mentor a woman who is in a junior, less-powerful position. Yet, in our experience, willingness to support and advocate generally diminishes for women as they achieve parity or seniority." https://t.co/W6qoZDtNUZ

Nature - Subtle forms of misogyny attack female leadership and coerce women to conform to conventional gender norms. It’s time to call out these behaviours, say Alison Bentley and Rachael Garrett.

What a week! I'm grateful for our amazing students, fascinating lizards, beach sunsets, and @ThSanger! 'Til next time, Cayman Brac... 🦎
That's a wrap from Cayman Brac! It's been an intense week, but a lot of science and science communication work was completed. We are all happy to go home and get out of this heat. @LizardMichele

Blessed are the reviewers who, although they decline an invitation to review a manuscript, suggest other relevant potential reviewers. ❤️

We’re re-submitting our revised paper this week, and one thing I’m extremely grateful for (besides fabulous coauthors) is the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology, for supporting the Sex Diversity and Reproduction symposium, and INVITING us to share our perspectives.

Really cool work! Dynamic color change in green anoles is primarily socially driven 🦎🦎🦎
oh wow look at that, my first paper! 🥳🦎 This was the first project that made me excited about studying animal behavior and made me want to be a field biologist. Happy to have had an amazing undergrad mentor @LizardMichele to help me see this through :) https://t.co/CaqKVhPdXv

Green lizards turn quickly to brown. In seconds, to green they rebound. Not to dodge predation Or for thermoregulation But to send social signals, we found. See the full story in Behav Ecol Soc w/ @DaisyHorr, Amy Payne @ProfessorKira here (open access!): https://t.co/Hgc4ncslZp

Hi everyone! I'm currently looking for a PhD program 👩🏾💻 my research interests lie in trophic ecology in insular systems 🏝using lizards🦎 as a model organism. I have experience working with stable isotopes & stomach flushing techniques. I'll be very grateful if you RT this 🙏🏽
