Driving to Florida!

What do you do when you need to move from California to Florida in the middle of a pandemic? You buy and kit out a campervan and drive! My postdoc has wrapped up and I am heading to Florida to start a new position. Flying is out for the time being, and we had grand plans for a vacation abroad. But instead, we will be checking out all of the amazing sights that the US has to offer, starting with Route 66. Our van (a 1996 Chevy Express, named Hamish in honor of my Scottish husband) will be our sleeping quarters and moving truck for the foreseeable future. Looking forward to it! Taking social distancing to the next level. :)

It is so wonderful to be back in San Diego, at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, thanks to the NMBU Postdoc International Travel Grant, to wrap up some of my research here in San Diego with my PI, Prof Ryan Hechinger. We will be working on analyzing data and writing papers  for the next two months.

I had a fantastic time presenting at the Gordon Research Conference on Predator-Prey Interactions this week in Ventura, CA, USA. The "Outcomes of Parasitism and Predation" session made an ideal outlet to present some of my preliminary work on the effect of the trematode parasite Euhaplorchis californiensis on predator-prey interactions in natural systems, specifically between piscivorous marsh birds (the parasite´s final host) and the California killifish (the parasite´s second intermediate host). What an amazing group of researchers to be apart of and get feedback from!

International Congress of Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry

8/12/2019

I have just arrived back to Norway from an amazing week in Ottawa, Canada for the International Congress of Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry (ICCPB). The scientific program was stellar and I learned a ton from hearing about the exciting, interdisciplinary science from international researchers in the field. Many thanks to Professor Nadia Aubin-Horth (Univ Laval) for inviting me to speak in the session "Studying the evolution of host-parasite interactions: Advantages of combining mechanistics and evolutionary approaches" on my postdoctoral work examining how host physiology and behavior shift following infection by manipulative parasites. I thoroughly enjoyed all of our discussions throughout the conference. I am looking forward to the next ICCPB in 2023!

2019 Society for Experimental Biology Annual Conference

7/6/2019

Many thanks to the organizers of the annual Society for Experimental Biology conference for putting together another amazing meeting in Seville, Spain. It was great to catch up with old friends, hear about all of the amazing new science that everyone is doing, and present some of my brand new research looking at the connections linking energy metabolism, brain serotonergic signaling, and parasite infection/exposure history. I can´t wait for Prague 2020! If you are working on parasites, disease, or immunity, please consider joining us at the 2020 SEB meeting where Sandra Binning (Univ of Montreal) and I are organizing a session titled "Parasites, disease and host immunity: Towards a mechanistic understanding of infection-induced phenotypes".

I had a wonderful time this week visiting the Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science (RSMAS) at the University of Miami, and the Marine Sciences Program at Florida International University. Everyone was really welcoming and I had a great time geeking out on everyone´s cutting edge science as well as presenting my own work. Many thanks to my hosts Prof Nikki Traylor-Knowles (RSMAS) and Prof Alastair Harborne (FIU). Also, thanks to Javier del Campo for snapping this photo of me during my talk at RSMAS!

Many thanks to Sjannie Lefevre for inviting me to speak in the University of Oslo seminar series today, where I talked about my work on how manipulative parasites alter the behavior and physiology of their intermediate and final hosts.

Many thanks to Shaun Killen for coming to Oslo for a productive visit full of paper writing/idea generating and one awesome talk at the University of Oslo on social behavior. I first met Shaun almost 10 years ago as a Masters student at the University of Glasgow. It´s great to still be working together all of these years later!

Our first meeting of the NMBU Academic Writing Club for graduate students was a success! I am organizing this new initiative on campus to provide additional opportunities for graduate students to learn tips and tricks for improve success in scientific writing. I am bringing in a new speaker each month to speak on a different topic related to academic writing and facilitating weekly peer editing among students. So far, the students are really enthusiastic and excited about the club! Many thanks to Hedvig from the Writing Center for kicking things with off with tips for making an outline before writing. Looking forward to next month´s talk on making effective figures for publication!
