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. Bella Xu-Ying is an author on ‘ Context-dependent coordination of movement in Tribolium castaneum larvae’, published in JEB. Bella conducted the research described in this article while a BSc student in Dr Maarten Zwart and Dr Stefan Pulver's lab at School of Psychology and Neuroscience, University of St Andrews, St Andrews, UK. Bella is investigating everything motor control, especially how nervous systems generate and modulate movements, from ions to cells to circuits to behaviour.
