SICB 2022!

The Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology annual conference is happening next week, January 3-8 2022! With a return to in-person events, we are aiming to highlight the breadth of research talks and posters on anoles given by all the amazing junior researchers at the conference!

This post is a call-to-arms: we can’t cover all the presentations without your help! We are looking for interested folks attending the conference that can help the Annals by contributing blog posts featuring these researchers and their anoles. Folks that elected to do the virtual SICB+ option instead of attending in-person are also encouraged to get involved. If you’re interested, please contact Anthony for any additional details or information.

Below is a list of anole presentations happening at SICB 2022- please reach out if I missed any of any of these peaks both your scientific and blogging interests!
