ECR Spotlight – Brett Hodinka

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. Brett Hodinka is an author on ‘ Getting slimmer without dieting or exercising: zebra finches can rapidly lose mass while maintaining food intake and decreasing activity’, published in JEB. Brett is a PhD candidate in the lab of Dr Tony Williams at Simon Fraser University, Canada, investigating the cost of reproduction in birds.
