I'm super stoked to announce that I will be starting my own lab in January at Clemson University in the department of Biological Sciences!
If you're interested in working on seasonal plasticity in butterflies and moths, feel free to contact me!

Natural history #collections are more important than ever. We can't understand #biodiversity without them

Finally, a government that is taking illegal #ASGM seriously. Well done @NacionWampis. Un ejemplo para todos. 💪💪💪 @MongabayOrg @MongabayLatam

Excited to announce I'll be starting as an Assistant Professor at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland in July 2024! @cwru

[Jesse Barber @BarberLab]

On Jan. 1, I start as a Professor and Curator at the American Museum of Natural History. I am recruiting PhD students and Postdoctoral scholars. Happy to discuss GRFP and PRFB applications. Reach out if you are interested in sensory ecology questions!

[Dr. Akito Kawahara @Dr_Akito]

For those interested - @BarberLab and I be giving a joint talk (two of us speaking together) at #ICE2024 today at 5:15-5:30 pm, rm C2. Come by to learn about bats, insect ultrasound production, mimicry, and sonar jamming in a 15 min! @ice2024kyoto_jp

A customized and shielded street lighting design significantly reduces the lethal attraction of flying insects in various environments. This approach harmonizes human needs with minimizing the ecological impact of artificial light at night.

Why is this Luna Moth laying eggs on a blade of grass? It's stuck under a streetlight on the pavement in the middle of the street. #Light_pollution

[Gorongosa National Park @GorongosaPark]

Say hello to the 4th group of Mozambican students working toward their Masters in Conservation Biology in #Gorongosa National Park. These 12 students will immerse themselves in environmental science & contribute to the future of conservation biology in Mozambique.

@Mothyash Behavioral Ecology is from Oxford University Press! It's a bummer that PeerJ was just bought by Sage...

Our 3rd cohort of Mozambican graduates recently completed the Gorongosa Masters in Conservation Biology program and are ready to conserve the environment! Photo - Janado Nazaré Cher

I'll be at #SICB2024 in Seattle and my lab is looking for a new PhD student to work on acoustic deterrents to protect bats from wind turbines. Please say hi! #bats #bugs #SensoryEcology

@Dr_Akito @fmbrewing @FloridaMuseum @JCDanielsLab This is so awesome - Lights out for moths! The night time is the right time.

[Dr. Akito Kawahara @Dr_Akito]

#Moth #beer! “Night Life IPA”was released by @fmbrewing recently. The can reads, “Turn the lights out for moths”. A campaign to help save moths and reduce #LightPollution!! One of many outreach activities we do @FloridaMuseum #McGuireCenter. Efforts led by @JCDanielsLab

[Adrià López-Baucells - Connecting Bats & People @adria_baucells]

Do you know what @globalsouthbats is? They are a group of people aiming to connect and empower bat conservation allies in the GlobalSouth where locally--led research and conservation are most needed.
We spent 2 weeks in Costa Rica planning the upcoming activities for the next 5y

Never thought I'd see the day when Wildlife Crossings was formally proposed as a LEGO kit. Then again I haven't touched a LEGO since 1992.

Plz RT to help them get votes, esp. if you are @ben_a_goldfarb who wrote a wildly popular new book abt road ecology

Twelve Mozambican students will study conservation biology in #Gorongosa Park this coming year. It’s the only master’s program taught inside a national park. Full scholarships (except for a registration fee) are financed by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. #Africa #Mozambique
