Posted today: AMNH Invertebrate zoology is hiring a new collectuons manager (curatorial associate).
My pet bot fly emerged yesterday from its pupa. Cute looks and morbidly fascinating life history what more could a girl ask for? I froze it already but now I see I might have missed an opportunity for rare case of myiasis. Oh well maybe next time…
If you're an entomologist who lost your position in this nonsense, please message me. If you're an organization seeking a taxonomist or a broadly trained entomologist, reach out. I'm also looking for professors seeking PhD students, globally. #entomology 🧪

Talk to your neighbors. Talk to your family. Talk to your friends. Tell everyone what is happening and why science matters (this is not a USA-only post, because we know this is happening everywhere)
Dear friends
Please consider signing this in support of our unionized museum colleagues facing mass layoffs at the CalAcademy. Natural history museum workers are routinely underpaid and overworked at a time when collections matter more than ever www.calacademyworkersunited.org
