• Viral Mistry: DNNSB Best Talk Winner!

    Distinct network-level strategies for different forms of non-associative learning in Tritonia

    I’m a Ph.D candidate in the Stanson-Toshok Center for Brain Function and Repair at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science. My research uses optical electrophysiology to investigate how sea slug escape locomotion neural networks are reorganized under learning and memory.
  • Tanner Mierow: DNNSB Best Talk – Runner Up!

    Amphibious compound eyes: ontogenetic shifts in eye morphology and function in Belostoma flumineum

    I am a second year PhD student in the Kingston Lab at the University of Tulsa. I am fascinated by invertebrate sensory systems and their adaptations. Currently, I work on the sensory biology of aquatic insects and the neuroethology of snapping shrimp-goby mutualisms.
  • Karin van Hassel: DNNSB Best Poster!

    Modulation of the stretch feedback pathway in the heart of the American lobster, Homarus americanus

    I am an undergraduate at Bowdoin College majoring in Neuroscience. I am graduating in the spring and excited to continue growing my love for Neurophysiology!
  • Roeskva Torhalsdottir: DNNSB Best Poster Runner-Up!

    Decoding social communication in a eusocial ant species, Harpegnathos saltator

    I am an undergraduate student at Middlebury College with a major in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry. I work in the Pask Lab where we study chemical communication in the Indian Jumping Ant.

About

The mission of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology (SICB) is to foster research, education, public awareness and understanding of living organisms from molecules and cells to ecology and evolution. SICB encourages interdisciplinary cooperative research that integrates across scales, and new models and methodologies to enhance research and education. SICB is committed to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice (DEIJ) as an organizing and guiding principle at every level of the society.
