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. Mal Graham is an author on ‘ Dynamic gap crossing in Dendrelaphis, the sister taxon of flying snakes’, published in JEB. Mal conducted the research described in this article while a PhD student in Jake Socha's lab at Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, USA. They are now a Strategy Director at Wild Animal Initiative, MN, USA, where they work on promoting interest in the field of wild animal welfare science. In their own research, they are interested in the well-being of wild animals and how biomechanical research tools can be utilized to assess welfare in the field (especially suffering due to injury and illness).
