The Interfaces of Global Change (IGC) is an interdisciplinary graduate program addressing multifaceted aspects of global change @globalchangevt @virginia_tech
Several #IGC fellows presented exciting research this week in San Francisco at the #SICB2018 conference! Way to go, fellows - starting 2018 strong! @globalchangevt
Hey everyone, do you like sharks? What about really really dead sharks? If so, come swing by my poster this Friday from 3:30 to 5:30 and we can talk about Cretaceous sharks and how they might have died! #sicb2018@VTechmeetsPaleo@Wilson_KPg_Lab@VT_Science
@MunozLabVT hitting it hard the first day of #SICB2018!
Highlights:
Scale matters when addressing ecological and evolutionary questions!
Microhabitat and behavior impact phenotypic variation!
Mechanically sensitive traits evolve faster across multiple lineages!

The inaugural winner of the coveted IGC Golden Boot is GCC faculty Dr. Quinn Thomas! He had the most #hokiepride at the IGC picnic today and will proudly host the boot until it’s passed on to next year’s recipient. 🏆 🎉
Presenting a new IGC tradition, the GOLDEN BOOT! Presented to the Hokiest of the IGC Hokies, the winner gets to take home this boot to display prominently! Before this trophy is passed on to the next Hokie, the winner will add a small decorative token of their own to the boot 🏆
Traveled to DC recently for a closer look at science and policy interacting with @igc_vt. We need people who can translate research results to decision-makers! What a valuable experience. Thanks @globalchangevt. @VT_Science
