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. Christian Drerup is an author on ‘ Visual contrast from background features and dynamic illumination contributes to three-dimensional camouflage in cuttlefish’, published in JEB. Christian conducted the research described in this article while a PhD student in James Herbert-Read's lab at University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK. Christian is now a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the lab of Olena Riabinina at Department of Biosciences, Durham University, Durham, UK, investigating how animals adapt their behavioural strategies based on the sensory information they can perceive, especially in perceptually challenging environments.
