Always fun to show nonscientists settling corals and GFP production. A throwback photo from our settling #Acropora palmata planulae from last summer! As I continue to state, I’m in the crab and fish housing construction business. 😁 #coastalrestoration

Inspiring my daughter while she was home sick yesterday with the caiman meandering about in the backyard. Though, she notes she will study “all animals, not just the marine ones.” Favorite animal group: crocodilians.

Students, some of these opportunities are starting to open up for next summer. I have spoken to a few mentees this week on their plans for summer and/or post-graduation. Take a look!

Glad to have had the chance last Friday to chat with my postdoc advisor Prof. Martha Rocha during my layover in Bogotá to catch up on all things #freshwatercrabs - and looking forward to getting that research collaboration back up and going! Back to biogeographic modeling…

My former supervisor keeps a running list of different animals that have bitten or drawn blood. I played a small part in this effort, which was born out of Instituto Humboldt’s Carlos Lasso’s field experiences/hospitalizations - a first go at a risk analysis by study organism. #venomousanimals

Living in Santa Marta never gets old. We have all the fun freshwater and terrestrial questions to get after (finally getting back to my freshwater #crab work), and also all this great marine space! #nature #explore

This is all a part of our mission to help retain and advance folks from various points in their careers. At this time, we are geographically focused on long-term field projects in the U.S. and South America, but can serve beyond that range, in both marine and terrestrial domains.

Our two-fold mission is to advance science and conservation and also to serve as a hub for those who need to advance their careers in the field. Do you find yourself as an hashtag#adjunct or recent grad not knowing where to house your research program or connect with like-minded folks?
