ECR Spotlight – Justine Nguyen

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. Justine Nguyen is an author on ‘ The buzz within: the role of the gut microbiome in honeybee social behavior’, published in JEB. Justine is a PhD candidate in the lab of Chelsea Cook at Marquette University, investigating how individual physiology scales to ultimately affect social dynamics.
