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 during our centenary year but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Lucas Greville and Mattina Alonge are authors on ‘ Acute restraint stress rapidly impacts reproductive neuroendocrinology and downstream gonad function in big brown bats (Eptesicus fuscus)’, published in JEB. Lucas is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the lab of Liam McGuire at the Department of Biology, University of Waterloo, Canada, investigating the eco-physiology of temperate bats with a focus on reproductive physiology and behaviour. Mattina is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the lab of Drs Helen Chmura and Creagh Breuner at the University of Montana, USA, investigating the dynamic interactions between the environment and reproductive physiology, and methods for differentiating pregnancy versus pseudopregnancy in lynx and wolverine within the (US) National Forest landscape.
