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. Callum McLean is an author on ‘ The kinematics of amblypygid (Arachnida) pedipalps during predation: extreme elongation in raptorial appendages does not result in a proportionate increase in reach and closing speed’, published in JEB. Callum conducted the research described in this article while a PhD student in Charlotte A. Brassey's lab at the Ecology and Environment Research Centre, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK. He is now a Postdoctoral Research Assistant in the lab of David N. Fisher at the University of Aberdeen, UK, investigating how and why animals, particularly arthropods, move and behave.
