Hi everyone! I’m seeking a new role and would appreciate your support. If you hear of any opportunities or want to catch up, please send me a message or comment below. I’d love to reconnect. 💼 I’m looking for Researcher, Postdoctoral Researcher, Entomologist, and Ecologist roles. #postdoc

When did postdocs stop being training positions? PhD graduates are early career researchers, yet many postdoc ads expect fully established experts. If every position requires years of experience, where do scientists get the chance to grow? Academia needs both excellence and mentorship#AcademicCareer

I am seeking postdoc opportunities in insect–microbiome interactions, ecology & evolutionary biology. Research: aphid–plant–microbiome dynamics, 16S rDNA sequencing & ecological genomics. Open to international relocation. PIs/collaborators, let’s connect. #Postdoc #aphid #Microbiome

An invasive aphid introduced to Japan is expanding beyond its original host (Solidago altissima) and now colonizing dandelion in the introduced range. A case of microbiome-linked host range expansion, showing how symbionts may help insects exploit new plants. #Ecology #Microbiome #Aphids

My PhD reveals how an invasive aphid expands its host range in Japan Not by evolving but through ecological fitting & microbial symbionts. Aphid density, recipient plant phenology, and microbes drive this rapid expansion. #Ecology #InvasionBiology #Aphid #Microbiome #PhD
