First-time Masters supervisor here whose MRes student starts their research project on Monday! 🐸

Would love to hear any tips for making the process as fun / valuable / pain-free as possible for both of us?

I’ll take sensible, unhinged, or anything in between! 🫑

It was wonderful to present my work to colleagues at @zslscience.bsky.social at the recent ZSL Science and Conservation Conference! 🐸 Thanks to the organisers and the committee for the Promoting #EDI through Public Engagement Award. I will endeavour to continue this work in my role as an EDI Rep! 🌈🧠

Very excited to be talking about my work on #frogs at this event at @zslofficial.bsky.social tomorrow! Grab your tickets now!

It is validating to see these issues being discussed more widely. As someone hailing from such a background and engaging with #EDI at @zslscience.bsky.social, who are leading in this dialogue, it is often at the forefront of my mind.

I think The Two Ronnies sketch rather subverts the point, though.

Last month I presented my work on amphibian antipredator behaviour at #Behaviour2025 in Kolkata, India. I met so many cool people and potential future collaborators! Thanks to the organisers for the opportunity to present and to @asab.org and @britishecologicalsociety.org for funding my attendance!

Thanks so much to everyone who attended my #Behaviour2025 talk on Wednesday - thank you for all the questions, advice, and expressions of interest. You were a fabulous audience! 🐸

The app apparently tells you if your talk was well-attended. What a world we live in! 🀯

A very successful Adder Day 2025! The weather was almost too nice this year, the scaly fellas didn't hang around for long.
