Abstract

ECR Spotlight is a series of interviews with early-career authors from a selection of papers published in Journal of Experimental Biology and aims to promote not only the diversity of early-career researchers (ECRs) working in experimental biology but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Jarrod Petersen is an author on ‘ Effects of ingesting large prey on the kinematics of rectilinear locomotion in Boa constrictor’, published in JEB. Jarrod is a PhD candidate in the lab of Dr Thomas Roberts at Brown University, USA, investigating the ways in which anatomy and muscle physiology allow non-model systems to preform bizarre behaviors, such as large prey ingestion in snakes.
