5.Started a journal club for the CEB, innovatively named the “CEBrief”.
6. Got stuck in an elevator.
7. Won a “Best Poster Award” for the RSWA 2025 Poster presentation competition. It was a sobering experience walking into a room filled with rectangular posters.
Onwards and forwards. Beantastic.

3. Presented my proposal to an enthusiastic crowd of CEB members. Got a lot of amazing feedback and fell in love with morph transitions.
4. Supervised master’s students for a mini beetle research project! They are doing great, and I was there to say encouraging things.

@hasbeanbeetle.bsky.social is studying female beetle ornaments, testing whether traits such as melanisation are used in mate choice, conflict, or resistance to harm — showcasing that ornaments may have functions beyond mate acquisition. 🐞👩❤️💋👨🥊 2/11
