“Who me? As a tripod fish, I deal with stress and fear by transforming into an eyeless abyssal predatory elder god. What about you?”

Hi Jacquelyn, I'm a first year Assistant Professor at the University of Vermont. I weave knowledge derived from genomic data and Indigenous Knowledges to identify and characterize biodiversity below the species level. My overarching goal is to better understand fish and inform fishery management.

A tour of Scripps Institution of Oceanography's Marine Vertebrate collection The collection contains specimens of more than two million species of fish.

The Scripps Oceanography Marine Vertebrate Collection is home to nearly 2 million fish specimens! Collection manager @frable.bsky.social gave CBS8 a special inside look at the collection, spotlighting fish that were collected as early as 1886! Dive deeper into the Collection. ⬇️

As federal funding for research is uncertain, we need to diversify funding sources for our PhD students.

Here is a comprehensive list of >160 PhD fellowships and funding opportunities, mostly from private foundations and scientific societies.

Made it 1/2 through my 1st semester as an assistant professor at the U. of Vermont AND as an "alien" in the US 🇺🇸 (what a time)... Highlights;
- Meeting great colleagues and students ❤️
- Teaching an exciting class (Ichthyology!!) 🐟
- Growth that comes with being outside of your comfort zone!😭💪
