It's tomorrow!
I'm excited to give a talk on Sunday, Nov 9th (8:40AM-9:00AM) at #EntSoc25! I will share the progress of our cutting-edge project, the manipulation of the termite gut microbiome!! cdmcd.co/ABEWRZ

I'm looking for a graduate student (either PhD or master's) to join my lab starting Jan 2026. If you know any students in social behavior and evolution (and termites!), please let them know!
