What a year of ups of and downs (w more to go)! Wouldn't be possible without my team. Honored to receive a postdoc mentoring award. My team's patience, guidance, and willingness to learn with me about what effective mentor-mentee relationships can look means the world to me.

This blog post tells the #storybehindthepaper and shows how vegetation structure influences hornbill movement decisions and resulting patterns of seed dispersal. 🌱

We know surprisingly little about how trees live their lives. Important paper in @ScienceMagazine on tree pace of life from @LalasiaM and the @CrowtherLab et al. Tropical forest trees show #FunctionalMegadiversity. Much more 👇

This is so spot on. Important efforts are underway to change this #CongoBasinScienceInitiative #CongoFlux @CBI_UCLA #SciencePanelForTheCongo and #PANGEA 🤞
