We kicked off year 19 of Shark River sampling in style within Everglades National Park The #RehageLab tagged 3 Common Snook and 4 Largemouth Bass for acoustic telemetry tracking as part of the FACT_Network Shoutout to @mackwhite1994 for the hats!

Happy holidays! Introducing RTutor.ai, an AI-powered app that lets you chat with your data in English! RTutor uses Davinci (#ChatGPT’s sibling) to turn requests into R code, which is executed & results are shown instantly, available as a HTML report in seconds. 1/8

This is incredible and I will definitely be giving this AI a try

We had a great time visiting our collaborators in the @jnelsonPhD lab at University of Louisiana at Lafayette We delivered a ton of samples for the FCE LTER Food Webs project. Can’t wait to get 3 years worth of stable isotope data back! Thanks for hosting us, sharing king cake, and a fun Cajun Friday!

Come join us for a summer REU that will train and enrich you! Deadline Feb 3! Apply now! ⁦US LTER⁩ ⁦FIU Institute of Environment⁩

Not often very political but as an academic at a Florida university I want to reaffirm my stance that diversity, equity, and inclusivity are pillars of good research and this legislation would be a direct threat to all fields. FIU #JEDI ambassadors wsvn.com/news/local/flo…

The @VRG_Oxy is looking for a post-doc! Check out this job posting. They were instrumental in helping me during my MS and do some pretty amazing work. The job ad can be found here: careersmanager.pageuppeople.com/1087/cw/en-us/…

Had a great time with Physalia-courses@ONLINE taking the Version Control for Researchers course (r-rse-git-github-zero2hero.netlify.app). Learned a ton about GitHub & GitKraken version control! Shoutout to @LaurenKOlinger for being a great partner for the group exercises

Huge shout out to my labmate @mackwhite1994. He’s had a killer year! Student of the year and best poster for the FCE LTER and his synthesis proposal was accepted for funding by US LTER. Thanks for being an awesome friend and mentor! Keep crushing it dude

Saw this gem of a sticker on a door at Rosenstiel School today. Crazy to think that my undergrad research with Wrigley Institute for Environment & Sustainability has lead to a PhD with FIU Institute of Environment and collaborations with UM. I hope everything is well on Catalina and no one makes any unexpected trips to USC Catalina Chamber

It was awesome to have our U.S. National Science Foundation REU Dakota out in the field on day 1 of his 10 week summer program with FIU College of Arts, Sciences & Education It seems like just yesterday I was doing my own REU with Wrigley Institute for Environment & Sustainability and now I’m a near peer mentor! Looking forward to a great summer!

During our most recent sampling of Everglades National Park the MAP team caught an Asian Swamp Eel (monopterus albus) for only the 3rd ever. This non-native species is already wreaking havoc in marsh food webs and we could be seeing range expansions further into Shark River Slough

Excited for the GRC Movement Ecology power hour on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in science! A critical topic that extends well beyond the field. I think this format for DEI discussion is awesome and something that more conferences should implement

Wrapped up the #GRC on Movement Ecology and officially started my journey to the second conference of the trip! Heading to Sete France for the #ICFT just making a few pit stops along the way 🍕

Just me + the poster that endured 5 countries & 2 conferences in the past couple of weeks! Can’t wait for icft2023 to talk about #snook movement responses during hurricanes….but until then you can find us at the beach! Big thanks to FIU College of Arts, Sciences & Education U.S. National Science Foundation CREST CAChE & other funders 🙏

An awesome conference with an awesome group of amazing scientists! #ICFT2023

2 conferences 5 countries 🇮🇹🇫🇷 8 airports ✈️ 22 days abroad 🍝🍮🏖️ 67 pages of notes 📝 124 scientific talks 👩‍🔬🧑🏻‍🔬👨🏾‍🔬 Countless memories and friends! Thank you to all my funders, colleagues, and conferences hosts that made this trip possible! icft2023 #GRC FIU College of Arts, Sciences & Education CREST CAChE

What an awesome presentation from Dakota Rygh our U.S. National Science Foundation & FIU College of Arts, Sciences & Education REU! He really immersed himself in field and lab work this summer and produced some awesome diet analyses on research and bluegill sunfish species! We’re going to miss him but expect big things in the future!

Two weeks remaining to apply for a graduate student position in our research group! 🦪🧬🐠

New paper alter 🚨📰 and excited to say it is my first, first author publication! Check it out to learn how fish assemblages vary across design features of artificial reef habitat in restoration areas during early phases of temperate rocky-reef succession doi.org/10.1016/j.mare…
