📢Out today! @dmdelane and my new paper in #ProcB w/ @ben_dantzer, @McAdam_lab, Boutin & Lane shows that early-life adversity reduces adult lifespan in @KluaneSquirrels... unless they encounter a food boom in later-life.

In a changing world, are animals picky about what ecological shifts they hormonally respond to?
We (@dmdelane @ben_dantzer @McAdam_lab & more) address this question in our new paper out today in @HormBehav featuring @KluaneSquirrels 👇

PLEASE RT. 🚨New paper🚨 "Evolutionary allometry of sexual dimorphism of jumping performance in anurans"
Highlights:
1. New proxies for jumping
2. Test new hypos. for size and jumping dimorphism
3. Discuss 'many-to-one' mapping of selection to fitness!!!

This is such an impressive analysis of the abiotic factors that stimulate nesting of painted turtles while accounting for physiological constraint, zero-inflated data, and collinearity among predictors. Great work by @MorganRMuell and @NthChapter!

I'm interested in adding more voices to StatsTree.org.
If you have a brief video case study of how you have used #stats in your own research, I would love to include it!
See @dmdelane video on painted turtles and mixed models as example.

This semester I flipped the Biostatistics classroom and generated a lot of resources on this new website that I created:
Www.statstree.org
Please make use of it if it can be helpful in your own classes (stats or otherwise)

One of the most inspiring parts of undergrad for me was learning about the research that UCSB graduates went on to do.
I'm blanking, can y'all help me identify some vertebrate biologists that did their undergrad at Iowa State?
I'd like to add to some lectures! Please RT.
