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. Maevatiana Ratsimbazafindranahaka is an author on ‘ Behavioral data suggest adaptive buoyancy control during shallow dives in humpback whales’, published in JEB. Maevatiana conducted the research described in this article while a PhD Candidate in Dr Isabelle Charrier's lab at Institut des Neurosciences Paris-Saclay, Université Paris-Saclay, France. Maevatiana is now a Postdoc (Alexander von Humboldt postdoctoral research fellow) in the lab of Prof. Dr Meg Crofoot at Department for the Ecology of Animal Societies, Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, Germany, investigating animal communication, social interactions and cognition, integrating bioacoustics and multi-sensor tags to study behavior in natural settings.
