ECR Spotlight – Arion Pons

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. Arion Pons is an author on ‘ Causal models of rate-independent damping in insect exoskeleta’, published in JEB. Arion is an assistant professor at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, investigating biomechanics of insects and the design of insect-inspired robots.
