Interview highlights Jordan Glass’s work on bee flight and the comparative approach in animal physiology.
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. Jordan Glass is an author on ‘ When does temperature limit bee flight? Identifying the missing pieces of the puzzle’, published in JEB. Jordan is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the lab of Michael E. Dillon at the University of Wyoming, USA, investigating how abiotic factors determine where animals can live, the mechanisms that allow them to succeed in those places, and whether these mechanisms are flexible enough for them to persist in a changing world.
