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 but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Cristina Ottocento is an author on ‘ Diet influences resource allocation in chemical defence but not melanin synthesis in an aposematic moth’, published in JEB. Cristina conducted the research described in this article while a PhD Researcher in Johanna Mappes's lab at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland. She is now a Postdoctoral Researcher in the lab of Johanna Mappes at the University of Helsinki, Finland, investigating chemical ecology and chemical communication.
