So glad I got to spend a week on the Navarro River with @KateLaskowski and @LauraStein09 showing me some #stickleback fathers! #fieldwork

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

@thehellmannlab @KateLaskowski Great video!! Love studying these busy little dudes

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

Hey hey! Come check out the first data from the Stein Lab's first students! Super proud of all the hard work they've put in over the past year. 🐟 🕷️

[Stein Lab @SteinLabOU]

Excited for our graduate students @Faith_Leri and @GatchLaura to share hot off the press data from their first projects at #ABS2021! 10AM and 10:30AM EST in the Behavioral Plasticity section! @AnimBehSociety

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

We've been out here for the past week getting the river ready for you... the stickles can't wait!

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

Kicked off some local fieldwork today! Looks a little different than #stickleback work, but lots of success. Looking forward to seeing how these ladies differ in their learning abilities! #latrodectus #fieldwork

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

Congratulations to #phdstudent @GatchLaura on receiving an @AnimBehSociety student research grant! She will be exploring individual variation in learning and how social experience and #cannibalism may influence #venom development in #Latrodectus... stay tuned! #AnimalBehavior

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

@KateLaskowski @JolleWJolles We are trying!

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

Stepped away from Twitter for a while in an attempt to "focus" and be "less stressed" during these first years. Hahaha anyway nice to see everyone here again! (The gif is me re-emerging) #teamfish

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

Very much looking forward to this. Susan's work shaped my PhD dissertation and career trajectory!

[Animal Behavior Society @AnimBehSociety]

A program highlight this year at #ABS2021 will be a symposium on #evolution & #behavioral #plasticity honoring the career of Susan A. Foster (1953-2021), organized by Dale R. Stevens II and Mathew Wund. Susan was a pioneer in the field of animal behavior! #sticklebacks

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

@KateLaskowski @HiDrNic But does the final defense require (literal) juggling?

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

How cool! The Stein Lab's first fully homegrown spider!

[Laura Gatchoff @GatchLaura]

Happy birthday to our first fully lab-reared spiderling to reach adulthood!!!

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

@GatchLaura 🎉

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

We are especially interested in proposals integrating #behavior, #genomics, #hormones, and/or #neuroscience! We have our Trinidadian guppy system up and running, have access to many other Poeciliid species, and will be adding stickleback next year!

@darterfish24 Drymon et al. 2019 Ecology about tiger sharks eating migratory birds is always a fun one! Cool methods too!

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

@KateLaskowski

[Laura Stein @LauraStein09]

Yeah Laura!!! You got this and we are so excited to have the spiders back! 🕷️

[Laura Gatchoff @GatchLaura]

Life has been crazy between COVID, everything else going on, renovating a house, moving, two new dogs, field season, paper writing, and life in general, but the spiders are finally moved back into the lab! I can do this!

Thread with solid action items to fight for our students and against the #StudentBan. Lots of phone calls today. Use the link below to find your house rep, and call BOTH of your senators. If you are more comfortable with email, writing your own is more effective than a template.

[Chris Marsicano @ChrisMarsicano]

In 2017, I offered some advice in a twitter thread about how graduate students could stop the #GradStudentTax. Well, we won that battle. So, let’s buckle up and use the same principles to win this one against the #StudentBan.
