ECR Spotlight – Stephanie Woodgate

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. Stephanie Woodgate is an author on ‘ How complex must shape data be to accurately model in vivo forces? Intraspecific level validation of in silico jaw strength estimates in a lizard’, published in JEB. Stephanie is a PhD student and guest researcher (Gastwissenschaftlerin) in the lab of Johannes Müller at the Institute of Biology, Faculty of Life Sciences, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany, and the Museum für Naturkunde, Leibniz-Institut für Evolutions- und Biodiversitätsforschung, Berlin, Germany, investigating evolutionary scaling of form–function–environment relationships in reptiles.
