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. Flora Whiting-Fawcett is an author on ‘ Bat species tolerant and susceptible to fungal infection show transcriptomic differences in late hibernation and healing’, published in JEB. Flora conducted the research described in this article while a PhD student in Steve Paterson's lab at University of Liverpool, UK. Flora is now a postdoc in the lab of Orly Razgour at University of Exeter, UK, investigating the impact of adaptation to disease outcomes in bats.
