@QMacrocarpa22 I never got one because I refused to pay for it given I had the pleasure of my name scrolling across a screen...thanks COVID

[Brandon Quinby @BrandonQuinby]

I'm not exactly sure what it will take for people to realize that I actually have a PhD and that I'm not a graduate student anymore. Maybe it's a shirt with buttons and a collar? Because that's basically the only difference I see...

@ClaireSchraidt Not this time, but she's about to come out lol

[Brandon Quinby @BrandonQuinby]

@foofighters I know you probably get this a lot, and that you all are going through some shit at the moment, but just wanted to let you know that you are getting me through my father's passing and I don't know what I would do without your music at this time!

Another publication on the books. I guess I can officially delete all the photos of deer pellets off of my phone now

Was great to see @BBCSpringwatch giving the burying beetle some well deserved attention, and even showing my footage! Thanks @ChrisGPackham for the amazing narration! #Springwatch

I was interviewed by someone from TWS about my recent black vulture publication.

[The Wildlife Society @wildlifesociety]

Black vultures are spreading northward in the Midwest, preying on livestock in their new range. Researchers created a risk assessment for where these newcomers are most likely to prey on cattle and other domestic animals. https://t.co/dg8TN0VVB4 #birds

I was informed today by my old advisor that one of my dissertation chapters is one of the most cited articles in Ecological Entomology over the past 2 years.

[Brandon Quinby @BrandonQuinby]

Excited to be going to an in person conference! See you in Sweden.

[Brandon Quinby @BrandonQuinby]

New research from my postdoc at Purdue. We developed a risk model highlighting areas across a 6-state region where black vultures are more likely to depredate cattle. Check it out!

I'm so extremely happy and thankful to my lovely co-authors Lena Zywucki, Maximilian Körner @Max_Evolbio, and my supervisor Sandra Steiger @SteigerLab.🧡Our article (and my first first-author paper) is now published in Evolution! @journal_evo

@lizzbutterflies Thank you! It is for the Project Manager position from February.

[Brandon Quinby @BrandonQuinby]

I want to announce that I was offered a position with SUNY Cobleskill to help with the reintroduction efforts for the American burying beetle to NY state! All this hard work paid off!

[Purdue Forestry & Natural Resources @PurdueFNR]

Have you interacted with or seen black vultures on your property? Are you an Indiana livestock producer who suspects vulture predation? We need your help to with our black vulture research project through a survey &/or carcass donation. Learn more inside: https://t.co/cfjZ9xvlpE

@TDeblieux Me too...this afternoon was unproductive to say the least.

[Brandon Quinby @BrandonQuinby]

2nd dissertation chapter and 4th publication this year.
Estimating Population Abundance of Burying Beetles Using Photo-Identification and Mark-Recapture Methods https://t.co/ZWLlfeEUpm

[Brandon Quinby @BrandonQuinby]

@ClaireSchraidt Also there are resources out there to help you pay for a student ID card with an expiration date which would meet the requirement!

[Brandon Quinby @BrandonQuinby]

@TDeblieux Hopefully I'll get the manuscript out soon!

[Brandon Quinby @BrandonQuinby]

I got to play with a new toy today! This trail camera is pretty awesome. It can take photos and videos that get uploaded to an app via cell towers. Game changer!

[Skye Greenler @skye_greenler]

Clear and spot on message. These fires are unprecedented, but not unexpected. Banning and criminalizing Indigenous fire management and systemic fire suppression has serious reprocussions, and climate change will only make these events more frequent. https://t.co/PCQie0Wfm8
