Now we know a little bit more about the sensory ecology of these arachnids. And I am thankful to all the authors, especially my mentors, Eileen and Doug. ❤️

Electrophysiological and behavioral responses of elongated solifuge sensilla to mechanical stimuli - Journal of Comparative Physiology A A fundamental understanding of animal sensory systems is crucial for comprehending their interactions with the environment and with other conspecifics. However, knowledge gaps persist, particularly in...

Solifuges are elusive and fascinating. In this novel study, we investigated the role of elongated sensilla on the 4th pair of legs of Solifuges using electrophysiology and behavioral responses. We tested air particle movement and air pressure stimuli in some creative ways.

This is truly an exciting day! The final chapter of my PhD dissertation has been accepted. I am thrilled that our work on an elusive arachnid, solifuge will contribute to the small but growing literature surrounding these animals.
Thanks to my co-authors for their hard work.
