I learned yesterday that I am one of the 2019 recipients of the American Society of Naturalists Jasper Loftus-Hills Young Investigator Award. I'm both honored and humbled by this award. I will be presenting a research paper in the young investigator symposium at this year's joint ASN, Society for the Study of Evolution, and the Society of Systematic Biologists meeting: Evolution 2019, in Providence, RI. I can't wait to meet my other three fellow awardees, thank you ASN!
This wouldn't have been possible without the help, support and dedication of my advisors and mentors: Paulo Guimarães Jr. (MSc), John DeLong (PhD) and Justin Yeakel (Post-doc). It also wouldn't have happened without the patience and dedication of many colleagues, collaborators and friends, and without the sacrifice of my family, who gave me the best gift you can get, an education. Last, but not least, this wouldn't have ever happened without the unyielding support of my amazing spouse, Marie-Claire Chelini.
It's difficult to believe that it's now been 6 years since the publication of my first paper ever, coincidentally, also in AmNat!
