Hello Biologists! My senior college students are learning about grant proposals. I've given them a 500K 3-year hypothetical grant for travel, supplies, personnel, publication costs, etc., It's hard to find sample grants with budgets and budget narratives - are you willing to share?

HEY! If you're an entomologist at an undergraduate-focused college that builds up hilarious amount of Malaise trap (or other passive collecting by-catch), perhaps you'd like to apply for a grant with me? Bonus points for barcoding/biodiveristy/alpha taxonomy. Due late Jan new.nsf.gov/funding/oppo...

HEY! It’s comics time at 9:30 with @escherbug.bsky.social and @americanbeetles.bsky.social in 128 at 9:30! You don’t need to be a good artist! Primarily we’ll be talking about storytelling your science. #entsoc24 #fitinentsoc

Oh sweet, glad I made a last minute grab for my bottle!

Anyone have recs for apps that allow me to post to both Twitter and Bluesky simultaneously?

I am thinking it was a big mistake not to get my research poster done before tonight.

Alright so who do I need to follow in the lead up to #Entsoc24! @entsocamerica.bsky.social

Hey! Are you an entomologist that does a lot of teaching, outreach, or extension education? I'm talking K-12, college education (like me! at a primarily undergrad college), and professional training. Then you should join the new pilot section Formal and Informal Training @entsocamerica.bsky.social

Beauty of a dryinid in action photo!

Hello to the new followers! I’m Carly and I’m a an entomologist at an undergraduate-only institute. Unsurprisingly, I’m part of the team pushing to create the FIT (Formal and Informal Teaching) section @entsocamerica.bsky.social

Over the last couple of years, I’ve developed horrible sneezing-fits the evening and day after sweepnetting sessions. Has this happened to other entomologists? Is it some sort of pollen allergy? It’s making fieldwork not great.

Sooooo does anyone need a roomie for the International Congress of Entomology in Kyoto?

Friends! What with BioQuip gone, where can I buy a Berlese funnel trap with a light bulb?

I'm pretty annoyed at ICE Kyoto right now. Are any other ICE symposium organizers feeling pretty frustrated and annoyed? I mistakenly thought that speakers I included when I submitted my symposium were "in" (including me!) and didn't need to submit during the open call. [1/n]

Happening now at #Entsoc23 - a symposium on the undergraduate research and education experience! Potomac 5-6

Are you mentoring undergrads through the grad school process? Then come to my talk at 9:05 in Maryland 3-4 and learn about working through the “secret curriculum” #EntSoc23 #FitinEntSoc23

Hello everyone! I'm Ellen Martinson! I'm an assist prof at University of New Mexico. I study parasitoid wasp venom and galling insects trying to unravel the molecular mechanisms behind species interactions. I'm looking for grad students and a postdoc, so please RT (or whatever the phrase is here)

Question - is it possible to make a hashtag on Bluesky without spending money? Would like to see #Entsoc23 happen.

So excited for Entsoc23, less excited for the likely egg retrieval surgery I’m probably having the day before. At least I’ll have an excuse not to exercise at the meeting ;D

I wasn’t cool enough to get a booster selfie but my usual had been to get my flu shot and Covid booster approx. 2-3 weeks before My Big Academic Conference which is just before Holiday Season
