Where Paleontology, Conservation, and Climate Meet

Being an international student means learning more Being an international student means learning more than science. Here are 5 things I had to figure out quickly: • “Interesting” didn’t always mean they liked my work • Asking questions showed confidence, not confusion • Silence in meetings meant different things than back home • Networking wasn’t arrogance—it was how people got ahead • English wasn’t just a language—it shaped whose voice mattered When I started my PhD, I wasn’t fluent in English, and I didn’t fully understand the academic culture around me.

Patchy at best Adaptation isn’t guaranteed. Survival takes more than hope. Full story in the link in bio

Here are 5 reasons it changed my science journey: • I spoke English the whole time (barely) • My slides made sense—people took notes • I forgot words but didn’t freeze • A stranger said, “Great talk” afterward • I realized I belonged in academia I didn’t cry because I failed. I cried because I did it. Scared. But I did it. That moment gave my work purpose I now LOVE giving conference talks. What moment made you feel like you finally belonged? Let’s talk about the messy milestones we rarely share.
Dinosaurs weren’t declining before the asteroid. Dinosaurs weren’t declining before the asteroid. They were just hard to find. Here’s what changed paleontologist's perspective: • Fossils are shaped by geology, not just biology • Gaps in records don’t mean extinction • Detection ≠ abundance • Some species hide better in deep time • Science is built on what survives Absence in the record isn’t proof of absence.
