I've been lurking for a few days, and I think it's time for an #introduction.
I'm a biologist who works on the comparative #biomechanics and #neuroscience of vertebrate copulatory systems. I'm also a science writer and a fact-checker for narrative #podcasts and science magazines.
Hoping to find all the people I followed on the birdsite, and meet new folks, too!

@DianeAKelly One of my pet interests is academic genealogy of comparative biomechanists. It seems like if you follow training histories back far enough in the field, in the US they all run through Duke, Harvard, and/or Berkeley. Welcome!!
@Ferris_vball I was one of Stephen A. Wainwright's last students at Duke before he retired, so I'm not falsifying your hypothesis there.
