Anna Hewett

Thanks to my amazing supervisors: Josephine Pemberton and @SuseJohnston , and my lovely co-authors too @Gfalbery and Sean and Ali Morris at @RumDeerResearch Slightly surreal that the PhD is now 'officially' finished ... but who knows 😉

💪 BUT ... there's always lessons to be learnt about power and turns out you need a lot of variation in environmental conditions as well as inbreeding (hence why it's rarely been found in the wild), which we discuss too

📣 The final chapter of my PhD is now out in @EvolLetters !! 📣 🦌 Using genomic and fitness data from a long-term study of red deer we investigated the interaction between inbreeding depression and the environment (ID × E) Check it out here: doi.org/10.1093/evlett…

Who says you can't publish a paper from a placement year #pty? Well, this is publication number two! @CUBLSResearch @OnE_CardiffUni @annamhew

Cool stuff by my colleagues at UNIL working on the hunting behavior of barn owls! 🦉

@O_o_Frank A few decades?! Frank I'm not that old 😭

Really pleased for this project by @annamhew to be published, resulting from Anna's placement year (yes, that's a few decades ago now...). Still, a useful method, and more to come!

Sexing plants with great colleagues! :) @O_o_Frank Check it out! #dioecy #tools #Silene sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New paper from the second chapter of my PhD is out in @molecology !! 😊 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…

Let's talk about #periods while doing #fieldwork. How do you handle them? Tampons and ziploc bags? Menstrual cups? Period panties? Suppressing them? My inquiring mind wants to know... Breaking the menstruation taboo to make fieldwork more inclusive nature.com/articles/d4158…

Pre-print is out! We use a unique approach to investigate the genetic architecture of inbreeding depression, maximising the power of our wild dataset and ensuring effect sizes are not overestimated. Check it out below👇👇 (Any comments are welcome!)

@Rebecca_SLL Thanks becca ☺️💕

Haven't posted on here for a while but I think this is worthy of an update: Im officially Dr. Hewett! Thank you to my two wonderful examiners @simonhmartin and Ino Curick for making my viva an actually enjoyable experience with some very interesting discussion!

@_applechew @simonhmartin Thanks apple 😊

@annamhew @simonhmartin Congratulations Dr Hewett!!! 🎉❤️🥳

@martykardos @simonhmartin Thank you 😊

@annamhew @simonhmartin Congratulations!

And a big thank you to everyone that has supported me along this journey, you know who you are 🥹

@palaeokatie @RumDeerResearch ☺️☺️ thanks

@annamhew @RumDeerResearch Yesss! I love this 🔥🖤

Celebratory tattoo of my study species after handing in my thesis! 😬😬 Real test is whether it can be ID'd by @RumDeerResearch

@SantozeAdido @RumDeerResearch It's a good reason! And a prawn would look awesome 🦐

@annamhew @RumDeerResearch 😅😅 well done 👍 I think I will need something like this when I hand my thesis too . Mine would be prawn 🦐😀
