Congratulations to my PhD student, Melanie Denommé for her article just published in the Conversation. Melanie recently attended (virtually) a SciComm conference and resulting from that meeting, she put together an opinion piece on the prevalence of reptiles as pets.

Here is a link to the article: https://theconversation.com/lizards-snakes-and-turtles-dispelling-the-myths-about-reptiles-as-pets-166257

It really is an honour to have graduate students pushing the boundaries and taking risks to get their ideas out there!
