A brief recap of SICB 2018
I had a wonderful time at the 2018 SICB meeting in San Francisco. As usual, there were plenty of great presentations, and this year there was also a special Editors Challenge workshop on stress. This workshop was one of the highlights of the week for me, in the coming weeks you’ll be able to read a summary, find links to presentation slides, as well as video links to some of the presentations and discussions on the Integrative and Comparative Biology blog which I contribute to.
I had the opportunity to share some new insights on some old questions regarding territory defense in the cichlid fish Neolamprologus pulcher for my talk on Thursday. Additionally, along with recent Team Gambusia and UC Davis graduate Rechelle Viernes, I presented some new results on the behavioral and neuroendocrine impacts of pesticide exposure on the western mosquitofish during Saturday’s poster sessions. Look out for both papers in the not too distant future!
