This collaboration was thanks to a @biologists.bsky.social Travelling Fellowship during my postdoc to learn from and work with the amazing Fangue Lab at UC Davis for 5 weeks (shoutout to @garfieldkwan.bsky.social and the bluesky-less Kelly Hannan, Nann Fangue, Trish Schulte, and Colin Brauner)!

Check out our new study looking at how white sturgeon deal with warming and low oxygen! 🌡️🫧 Interestingly, the order in which these stressors are experienced and whether exposures are acute or chronic may have important effects on their responses

Image displays a map of North America with approximate sturgeon locations from the experimental studies used in this review depicted by filled circles of different colors. Each color corresponds to one of eight species of sturgeon. Individual sturgeon from each species are illustrated in a semi-circle around the map with a corresponding color (red, orange, yellow, green, light blue, dark blue, light purple, dark purple). Dot sizes are different and correspond to the number of studies conducted in that river/region. The color of the map itself ranges from blue at the top to orange at the bottom, to highlight the latitudinal temperature gradient across North America. Illustration by Madison Earhart.

Thrilled to share our new meta-analysis on North American sturgeon with @madisonearhart.bsky.social and @wbuggiii.bsky.social ! As sturgeon devotees we wanted to know, how will these threatened and endangered fish fare in a warming world? Check it out here! 👇

This illustration depicts north america colored te to burnt orange, highlighting temperature differences across the continent. The 8 north american sturgeon species ring the outside of the map. Each sturgeon species is underlaid by a color which corresponds with dots on the map. The dots on the map show where thermal tolerance studies were completed, and the size of the dot corresponds to how many studies were completed in that area. Illustration by Madison Earhart.

soo excited to share my latest paper & illustration~ a sturgeon meta analysis evaluating thermal tolerance where we asked can sturgeon handle climate warming? Unfortunately we found that physiological impacts across life stages limits ecological success 🧪👩🏻‍🔬🐠🌎🐡

Funds all go to Pridelines as “unrestricted” which means they can be used to pay for things like hotel rooms for LGBTQ+ youth who have been thrown out by their families (which grant funds often can’t). As always, we’re extremely grateful for any support folks can offer to this amazing organization!

Drag Queens Tag Sharks in Annual Florida Science Celebration The annual “Drag ’n Tag” expedition takes place amid a wave of antitransgender legislation

Amid a rising climate of intolerance in Florida, drag queens tag sharks to raise awareness of queer people in science, and funds for Pridelines, a local LGBTQ+ charity. My story for @sciam.bsky.social

i turned my thesis into my committee !! 😭😭 it’s been a rollercoaster the last 5 years completing this phd and it’s finally completely written!! (60k words later 🥵)

i’ll be waiting for this to start to feel real - in the meantime here’s a figure i drew for the thesis intro ☺️🧪
