Look how cool and talented my supervisor (the frogs) is!!!

Excited to see our research on the cover of the latest issue of @nature !! I was never much of a photographer - the frogs did the heavy lifting on this one by being cuuuuute.

My favourite thing about following scientists outside of my field is that sometimes they post stuff that is entirely unintelligible to me but I still give it a like because they seem excited and I support their joy


Anyone know of an alternative to Hygrochron iButtons? Can find many temp and RH data loggers but nothing of a similar size 😭


I went slightly insane collecting data for this paper so please read it, or just look at the pretty figures that’s fine too ok ty ❤️🦎

anyone wanna psychoanalyse why travelling makes me so heckin anxious? I’m not at all afraid of the actual flying part, it’s everything else that has me on the verge of tears every time 😓
