Also posted to #evol2025 app social feed, but in case anyone's looking on here, I'd like to give away a copy of my book to a non-U.S./Canada grad student, since I know it can be harder to get outside N.A. Respond here or on the app want it! I'll pick the recipient at random. 🎲

🐸💧 New from @Becker_Lab @PennState: Drought reshapes amphibian behavior, skin microbiomes, & disease risk.

In pumpkin toadlets, less rain = lower fungal loads but disrupted microbiomes & more time in wet spots.
