Hi there! 👋 I'm a professor at University of Louisiana at Lafayette and my research lab studies #fish #evolutionary #biomechanics. I also like #SciArt, #photography, being #outdoors, #dogs, and #food. Follow along to learn about what me and my lab are up to!
Alright, let's see if this mastodon works. We are hiring at NSF - DEB. https://debblog.nsfbio.com/2023/02/07/now-hiring-permanent-program-directors-in-evolutionary-processes-and-ecosystem-science/
There's an amazing job opportunity at U of Maine to become the director of the Darling Marine Center. https://umaine.hiretouch.com/job-details?jobID=80356&job=director-of-the-darling-marine-center
First #Biomechanics lab! We're using fish body shape as an example of the #morphology - #performance - #fitness paradigm. We measured 'flat things', will compare to Sam Price's MONSTER dataset of fish morphometrics, and discuss Darien Satterfield's recent paper testing Webb's hypotheses of form and function. #FunWithFish

One of my new years resolutions is to increase my science communication efforts - so welcome to "What the Duck Wednesdays"! A game where I show you a photo of a duck's butt, you guess what species it is, and then I share some cool facts about it. Let's go! #WhatTheDuckWednesday PC:
