Snail scientists across the globe are working hard to answer this question, but what do you think? Check out the link in our bio to see how you can get involved! 🌈🐚

Started fieldwork again today, trying to finish the dataset I've been talking about for the past couple months 😁 first time running trials in both the morning and evening tide!

Help share/repost to make sure companies get the message re the fate of #oceanplastic

@_francae Thank you!! :) solid yes to all, really looking forward to looking at more data 😁

Just got some really cool preliminary results I can't wait to talk about at @SNSC2024 and #ASABSpring2024 😁😁😁

And round 3! If you're at the @SchoolofBiology PGR conference come talk to me this afternoon and let me try to convince you that these gobies might be doing something cool 🐟👀

Ready for another round! If you're at #ASABspring2024 come around poster 24 from 13h today and check out the cutest fish I found in my videos (so far). Besides the gobies, thanks to Katie as well for this photo.

#Hoje é dia 25 de Abril. Há 50 anos, o Movimento das Forças Armadas punha fim a 48 anos de ditadura. Portugal vivia “o dia inicial, inteiro e limpo”, como escreveria Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen. O país saía à rua para celebrar a conquista da liberdade e começava o seu caminho na construção da democracia. Por isso, até 2026, celebramos 50x2. Comemoramos 50 anos de Liberdade e 50 anos de Democracia, para preservar o legado de Abril e projetá-lo no futuro. Também por isso, hoje saímos à rua. Esta festa é de todos, com todos e para todos. Junte-se às celebrações e identifique-nos nas suas partilhas. Participe e traga outro amigo também. #50anos25abril #25deabril #50x2 #50xTodos

Thanks to my groupmates, not on Twitter, including Jude Lynch ^-^ for indulging me and talking about fish all day 🐟👌

Other highlights include this ChatGPT generated title: "Sticking Together: Examining Collective Action Challenges in Stickleback Groups" and my personal favourite: translating three-spined sticklebacks to "espinhosos", aka the spiny ones 🌵🐟

On day 1 of #ASABSpring2024 we used AI to answer the question: "Does stickleback approach behaviour vary with group size and stimulus type?" We found that AI wasn't particularly useful for the statistics, but it did produce some writing and figures, exhibit A:

@jack_d_barber heron! :D nice

75% of research staff on fixed-term contracts at the University of St. Andrews: ucu.org.uk/researchreport… This is higher than the national average as well. Thrilled to go back into this job market in a few years, what would life be without a bit of financial insecurity?
