ECR Spotlight – Lana Waller

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. Lana Waller is an author on ‘ Applied peformance ecology: testing strategies of talent identification in sports using ecological systems’, published in JEB. Lana is a PhD student in the lab of Professor Robbie Wilson at School of the Environment, University of Queensland, Australia, investigating trade-offs in ecological systems using performance ecology and demonstrating applications to talent identification in sports.
