Historically marginalized student representation drastically drops from undergrad to grad school.
Are underrepresented students unqualified? Or are grad school admissions unnecessarily confusing, costly, & gatekeeping?

How do male harbor seals learn their breeding songs? Why do pups show vocal plasticity at a few weeks of age? And why are harbor seals vocal production learners? @AndreaRavignani @MPI_NL

4/5) Not sure where to start? Our decision tree can help users determine which level of reporting is most suitable for their specific situation. With more widespread and consistent reporting, big-picture rhythm questions will be within reach.

2/5) Framework levels fall into 2 categories—metric reporting and data sharing—and are generally quite straightforward. This is intentional! Many acoustics studies, even those not focused on rhythm, are just a few small steps away from contributing to comparative rhythm research.
