ECR Spotlight – Jamie McCoy

Abstract

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 during our centenary year, but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Jamie McCoy is an author on ‘A phenomics approach reveals interspecific differences in integrated developmental responses to chronic elevated temperatures’, published in JEB. Jamie is a postdoctoral research associate in the lab of Dr Oliver Tills at the School of Biological and Marine Sciences, University of Plymouth, UK, investigating the use of bioimaging and computer vision approaches to examine the impacts of environmental change on the development of marine and freshwater invertebrates.
