ARC DISCOVERY EARLY CAREER RESEARCHER AWARD

I got amazing news today: I was awarded a three year fellowship from the Australian Research Council, the competitive Discovery Early Career Researcher Award (DECRA). This fellowship will fund my research project entitled “The development, ecology and evolution of alternative phenotypes”, which means I will be doing some exciting stuff on conditional male dimorphism in dung beetles and harvestmen (arachnids from the order Opiliones). Thanks to the ARC for this great opportunity, and also a big thank you for my family and friends that have been so supportive of me and my career in the last few years!
