I'm hiring again! My lab is looking for a postdoc to study bumblebee nesting, foraging, and overwintering habitat needs with genetic analyses and radio telemetry tracking. -- We can't wait to have you join us!!!

Today I took my lab for a behind-the-scenes tour of the Peabody museum! We got to see the wonderful collections and spend the work day doing something different and fun. Go Fisher Lab! 🎣🎣

Check out the newest episode of the CAES station podcast! I’m interviewed in the middle.

I FINALLY submitted the manuscript that describes my postdoc work. Fingers crossed for a speedy and kind review process!

Oh hey, lady! Feels a little early, my friend.

Spent the day at the CT state capital participating in Ag Day. Great conversations about monarch butterfly and pollinator conservation.

Entomologists with beekeeping experience: Please apply for the CT State Apiary Inspector! BS level with no residency requirement. Fantastic promotion potential for a MS. Very stable, great benefits, annual increases, union protections, and a great place to work!

Monarch numbers are down to 0.9 hectares overwintering in Mexico. That’s the second lowest population estimate over the last 30 years of monitoring.

All models are wrong. Some models are useful.

Thanks!!!

That would be SO COOL!!!

Will do!

That would be fantastic!!!

Thank you!!!! She’d be over the moon to meet a geologist

Right now she likes collecting rocks… not much more detail than that.

Yes, I used to participate as a scientist myself. Was thinking of something less formal. Just an encouraging note.

My 8yo niece loves rocks and told me she wants to be a geologist when she grows up! Any experts out there want to inspire a young scientist? A “penpal” letter would be really cool!!!

Happy to chat about this opportunity with anyone interested.

CAES is hiring an assistant scientist II (equivalent to assistant professor, but 100% research) in the area of modeling and data analysis for vector-borne diseases.

Come join my department!

I’m hiring a postdoc to focus on bumblebee habitat suitability and space use in CT. Let’s do some genetics, radio telemetry, and spatial modeling together!
