We had no plans to sample bats on this final field trip to Uganda. Luckily for us, we still happened across this beautiful female Nycteris thebaica while visiting Ngamba island. Look closely as she twirls and you can spot the wings of her pup! 🦇 #mammals

Grateful to be living in snowy Colorado after seeing who my mom encountered on her walk this morning. My mom is unbothered at this point but I would love to continue appreciating these massive beauties from a couple football fields away.

Skipped out on #ASTMH #TropMed24 this year but getting so excited by the science on my feed! My one claim to ASTMH fame is when I missed the group photo for ACME travel awards in Seattle and someone decided to add my headshot to the big screen for the entire conference.

I hope to share insights and information relevant to small mammal field studies, disease surveillance, and ecological drivers of viral spillover events. Lemur photo for your troubles.
