@NagissaM Awww, thanks.❤️

Sometimes it is good to be reminded that giving a *terrible* talk won't kill you. 🤦🏾 At least all the *other* talks in my session have been top notch!

@AgEntoGirl 'heard a commotion' - only an entomologist would describe it that way, or even notice it was life and death playing out on exoskeleton 😂

@thelonglab @LaurierResearch @NSERC_CRSNG @CanBlackSci @LaurierVPR Thrilled to have a chance to meet your students @thelonglab! And many thanks to @LaurierResearch for the support. #BESTEMM2024

#BESTEMM2024 Was tour de force yesterday. Packed career fair. Inspiring keynotes by Dr Upton Allen and Beatrice Ombuki-Berman. A new wave of on-demand content, and visits from the High Commissioner for Jamaica and the High Commissioner for Barbados. be-stemm.blackscientists.ca/2024

Almost time for #BESTEMM2024. We have a pretty intense program. be-stemm.blackscientists.ca/2024 Time to rest up! instagram.com/stories/canbla…

So proud of my MSc student Susheen Mahmood and research associate Luciana Baruffaldi for outstanding talks at #ABS2024. Thanks to all who attended yesterday and today. Learn more about Luciana's comparative study in our paper published today! bmcecolevol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

They both gave great talks @thelonglab. Enjoyed them both. Take homes: light matters for reproductive behaviour and so does rearing complexity/substrates. Rigorous experimental design in both cases. Congrats to both! #ABS2024 And also- I want your cool fly observation board.

This morning's keynote by @tamram was tour-de-force! Concepts& questions that I hadn't considered before, intriguing data, left me wanting to learn more. Plus! Humour, audience participation, full credit to lab personnel throughout and ref to spider data! #animalbehavior2024

Lots of opportunities to network at #AnimalBehavior2024 , including the lunchtime workshop for graduate students.

@MindingtheBrain @NSERC_CRSNG @CarletonScience Fantastic! 🥳 I hear from colleagues @mcgillu that they are sponsoring student attendance as well.

@WidowWeb @NSERC_CRSNG We are sending some of our @CarletonScience students!

@NSERC_CRSNG has been a key supporter of #BESTEMM since the first conference in 2022. President Adem met with us when our network was just developing and saw the potential. 800 members later, the national impact of NSERC's sponsorship is clear. Join us! be-stemm.blackscientists.ca/2024
