I am thrilled to announce that after 2.5 years of work under the excellent guidance of @mneiman and @johnlogsdon, I have successfully defended my MS thesis! Thank you to everyone at @uiowabiology who has supported me. Next stop, @UBC!
Congratulations to iBio graduate student, Chelsea Higgins (@chemay52), on her successful thesis defense! Chelsea's mentors are @mneiman & @johnlogsdon. Best of luck to Chelsea at @UBC where she will join the @ZoologyUBC PhD program in Professor Kayla King's lab.

Itโs such a joy to teach when working with creative and dynamic people like these @uiowabiology graduate & undergraduate students! Today we were digging into whether & to what extent variation in human behavior has a genetic basis, crime scene set and all. @chemay52 @tara_hicks_ โ at Iowa City, IA
So excited to put these skills to the test in just a few months!
