A little late, but excited to announce that our paper on lifespan in Shark Bay bottlenose dolphins was published a few weeks ago! We used 35 years of data on ~1000 dolphins to look at male and female mortality risk across their 50+ year lifespan. doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2…
Shark Bay Dolphin Research Project@sb_dolphins

How long do Shark Bay dolphins live? Do females outlive males? The answers and more are in our new paper - out today in @RSocPublishing #ProcB led by @MHFMcEntee ! royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

I finally made it to @CurtinUni this week to start a six week stint collaborating with @CMST_oceans to do some sound propagation modeling with sponging dolphins! Ask me again in a couple of weeks and we’ll have some cool new results 🧽🐬🌊😎

This was an insulting offer from @Georgetown, a university that talks about caring for the whole person. How can I care for myself with only an extra $169 with 8% inflation?
Georgetown Alliance of Graduate Employees@WeAreGAGE

Today, @Georgetown provided another insulting counter at the bargaining table, only offering to raise 9-month stipends an additional $169 and 12-month stipends an additional $185.

With such high inflation (and average DC rent increases of 9% between 2021 and 2022) in the past few years, it is a shame that @Georgetown is offering such a small wage increase to its graduate workers who teach and perform essential research for the university.
Georgetown Alliance of Graduate Employees@WeAreGAGE

@WeAreGAGE's proposal: $33,813➡️$45,802 for 9-month PhD stipends/$36,934➡️$49,466 for 12-month stipends @Georgetown's counter: $33,813➡️$34,659 for 9-month PhD stipends/$36,934➡️$37857 for 12-month stipends Members, check your email for a full recap! #HoyaSaxa #CuraPersonalis

I learned so much from my friend Trent (@WashUGradWkrs & @HigherEdLabor) about the history of STEM organizing. In here too is a description of @WeAreGAGE Biology organizing, written by me :)
Science for the People@sftpmag

Chapter 5 draws lessons from radical STEM unionization throughout US history, superimposing them with the current wave of STEM labor action. (It has charts!) magazine.scienceforthepeople.org/labor-special-…

Did you know baby dolphins have whiskers? This baby was on its second day of life when we saw it yesterday! The whiskers (on top of the rostrum) will fall out in a couple days, but until then they help sense things in the environment while they’re still learning to be a dolphin.

You know you’re bad at science twitter when you try to tweet about the end of your second (!!) 2022 Shark Bay field season with @sb_dolphins and you realize this will be your first tweet from Australia. It’s been a ride and I already miss the dolphins!

On November 1st, we celebrated a special day for the Shark Bay— Bytfluke the dolphin turned 50 years old! She is a sponge forager, so we baked her a sponge cake in the shape of her fin and her favorite foraging implement, a sea sponge!

1/10) Very happy to announce that our new paper is out in @PNASNews! We show evidence that sperm whale clans in the Pacific Ocean use identity codas as symbolic markers of vocal clan identity. Read the paper at: doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…
