Really excited to share this amazing animation by Bruizer Film & Former NatureScot account I helped with, highlight my Masters research on #baskingshark breaching using #biologgers Dr Lucy A Hawkes @DrMJWitt University of Exeter Check out the paper here: tinyurl.com/3brknuwb youtu.be/JK4OqhiDRro

🚨 We are delighted to announce that our new paper is out TODAY in Current Biology 🚨 Here we provide the first direct evidence of how a predator - the trumpetfish - can use ANOTHER ANIMAL for concealment when hunting! 🔗 tinyurl.com/4p424mbx 🧵 Thread to find out more: (1/7)




🌟CONGRATULATIONS🌟 to Isla Keesje Davidson on the 1st paper from her #PhD. Celebrating #ECR success is right up there as the best part of my job. Thanks to coauthors Ben Williams John Stratford @sharkslikejazz Prof. Steve Simpson Read the #OpenAccess paper here: doi.org/10.1098/rsos.2…

🚨So thrilled to announce that I've passed my PhD viva this week! A big thanks to Martin Stevens and Edgar Turner for the great viva, as well as James Herbert-Read and my lab Marine Behavioural Ecology for the most amazing cephalopod and crustacean-themed presents!🦑🦀 #PhDone #DrDre #DrErup


🚨We are delighted to announce that our new paper is out NOW in Current Biology 🦑🌅Here we show how #cuttlefish alter their #camouflage response under naturally occuring dynamic lighting ('water caustics')! 🔗authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S09… 🧵A thread to find out more:


Had a lovely day at Dept of Zoology Seminar Day on Friday. Tried my hand at a 1-minute flash talk to promote my poster on #lionfish sociability.


🤝 A HUGE thanks to CambridgeESS&C-CLEAR for funding this work, to the Ecology of Vision group for inviting me to their lab at University of Bristol Biological Sciences to conduct these experiments, and to my wonderful co-authors (and PhD supervisors) James Herbert-Read and Dr Martin John How 🥳🎉💪


🚨 New paper alert! 👀In our new opinion piece in Trends in Ecology & Evolution, we propose #cephalopods as model systems to investigate the link between tactical #deception and #cognition in animals 🐙🦑🪄✨🧠 Read the paper here: 🔗 cell.com/trends/ecology…
