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. Reshma Menon is an author on ‘ Moderate nutritional stress reprogrammes insulin responses to drive enhanced starvation tolerance in Drosophila melanogaster’, published in JEB. Reshma is a PhD student in the lab of Dr Jishy Varghese at School of Biology, IISER TVM, investigating the intricate relationship between stress and stress responses, particularly focusing on the physiological rewiring that occurs under stress and the mechanisms that drive anticipatory adaptive stress responses.
