Hey #SMBE2023 goers! 👋

Make sure to stop by Prem Aguilar's poster with our work on the evolution of carotenoid colouration in lizards (SP_25 - 862 - 704).

Have fun at the conference everyone!

Using colour pattern edge contrast statistics to predict detection speed and success in triggerfish (Rhinecanthus aculeatus)

Summary: The speed with which triggerfish detect patterned stimuli cannot be explained by a single image statistic. The relationship between pattern statistics and animal behaviour is complex, and is likely to be distance dependent.

As part of a research project led by Maël Doré (@Eonymus) on mimicry in tropical butterflies, we have developed a survey to quantify our perception of butterfly color patterns. ⌛ < 10 min

Your participation would be very helpful.The more data we have, the better. Thank you so much!

Memometic - Butterfly Survey

Soy bióloga trabajo en la Facultad de Ciencias de la #UNAM, investigo sobre los datos, la información y literatura Biológica para estudiar la Biología del Color (Biocolores #ColSci). Uso herramientas digitales para curar, procesar información y responder preguntas. Promuevo la #CienciaAbierta.

Hi!
I study mitochondrial physiology and evolution with a focus on co-adaptation and co-evolution in a diverse set of cool critters.

Also I'm fascinated with vibrant coloration in animals and want to work out the details of how they are produced.

I'm one year in to my first faculty job and am recruiting grad students to join my lab at Iowa State University.
