Throwback to my PhD viva (because I have officially left Twitter). Already feels like a long time ago.

First published paper for my PhD out now in @GEB_macro open access. We found that the co-occurrence of herbivorous fish functional groups correlates with reduced algal cover and increased coral accretion.@Sal_Keith @RemoteReefs @DanExton @LecReefs onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ge…

Taken down by these viruses - really disappointed not to be there! But if anyone has comments, questions or wants to chat about angry damsels, please feel free to DM 🐠 Happy RCUK! t.co/Tnv4uVXQOv

Pre #EAB2021 trip to the museum 🦖 @BritishEcolSoc

Excited to be at my first in person conference as a PhD student, in the beautiful city of #edinburgh. Looking forward to a day of #coralreefs #RCUK2021 @LecReefs

Over the moon to present the final paper from my MRes: Individual foraging specialization in group-living species. Link available until 08 Jan.@HarryHMarshall @CantMichael @UniExeCEC @AnimBehSociety authors.elsevier.com/c/1e6SPmjLwpnn

New t̶o̶y̶ serious science equipment ready for the field

Really cool findings by @MichaelGBertram on how Prozac not only affects bold behaviours, but can also impact reproductive behaviours in mosquitofish @BritishEcolSoc #BES2020

Fantastic keynote by @AndyPurvisNHM to kick off day 2 of #BES2020: Bending the curve of biodiversity change. Act now or pay more later @BritishEcolSoc

Enjoying the creative side of #BES2020 with #DrawYourStudyOrganism. Three-spot damselfish, Stegastes planifrons 🐠🖌 Are watercolours cheating? 😆

Amazing but scary figures in @xuemeibai_aus Plenary Lecture at #BES2020. Animal biomass 4 Gt. Plastic 8 Gt!

Fantastic talk by @TimACGordon at #RCUK2020 on reef soundscapes! Hugely impactful way for people to "listen" and stand up for our coral reefs 🐟🦐🐠

Damselfish domesticate tiny shrimp to fertilise their farms. Incredible! :D t.co/zrUqiMeFRL
