This is nuts

Foot and a half deep snow drifts meets the Gulf of Mexico in Cameron Parish Louisiana. I can’t say I ever even imagined such a thing happening. Last time I was here at this beach was hours before Hurricane Laura devastated this coastline. #lawx #blizzard #snow

Attention, students: Ready for hands-on undegrad marine research? #UDel is offering a @NSF-funded Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program for 10 weeks this summer, from June 2 to August 8, at UD's coastal campus in Lewes, DE. /1

@DrCBonvillain @TheGrantOShow @NichollsState Way to go Chris!

[Shoals Marine Lab @ShoalsMarineLab]

Shoals is still accepting applications for our 10-week Undergrad Research Internships! Fun and meaningful research topics to choose from. Stipend and room and board included. Find out more here.

However I do think we need further efforts to reduce barriers and increase involvement of under-represented groups so that people arent getting left out.

[Dr. Jennifer Hill @Hill_EcoLab]

Im not dissuaded by this:
Effort to get undergrads involved more and earlier are paying off.
I have undergrads with national meeting presentations and a few with papers
In part bc I mentor students on what they need to both be competitive and help ensure their success

Started reviewing PhD applications this year, and while I expected it, I am still blown away by the students' achievements before starting their PhDs. The 2015 version of me wouldn't have even made it past the first round.

Starting the new year and first day back at work with a bang….. a flat tire and a check engine light within my 10 minute drive to work. I think this is the cosmos telling me, not enough relaxation was had this break

Hill lab Christmas treat decorating party was a success!

Oooo I wonder how well this would work in the marsh. Taking biomass in the marsh hurts my heart a little and fills a freezer or drying oven quickly!

[Peter Dietrich @Peter_Lstg]

Preprint alert!🚨 You want biomass data without clipping the vegetation? Use your smartphone for a 3D scan! In our manuscript you get instructions & a complete Jupyter notebook for immediate use! https://t.co/2zRmndAUsH 🪴+📱=💚

@MobassherH24348 Beautiful indeed, look at all those fun guys

Science is happening in the lab. Climb my pretty snails, climb!!!!

@wareslab I too brought donuts to my lab meeting this morning and also ate two when I shouldn't have..........

[Dr. Jennifer Hill @Hill_EcoLab]

The dynamics of the Louisiana coast are crazy. Huge mats of hornwort that were there this summer( and were so thick I lost a 3ft piece of pvc marker that I tried to place 1.5ft from me are now just gone.) Still got Lilly pads though. Doing SAV here is hard .....

[Dr. Jennifer Hill @Hill_EcoLab]

Come be my colleague! We are hiring! I think its one of the rare places where research with undergrads and master students is balanced with a not ridiculous teaching load. Very collegial and congenial dept!

As many of my students are going into health field, Im slowly adapting my ecology lectures to show how ecological principles are being used in healthcare.
Side problem: Rabbit holes of new interesting things that I want to learn.
New addition to the diversity-function lecture!

Color me not shocked......

Study (N=200 courses) tested 3 interventions to reduce gender bias in student evals, but none were effective. "Women who were tough graders or taught large classes received more criticism than men with the same grading style or class size." @kimelsesser

I started gathering a list for REUs/Summer research opportunities for undergraduate students in Ecology/Conservation/Evolutionary Biology. Feel share to share with any undergraduate students who may be interested in participating in *PAID* research.
