Through the rest of the year, Dr. Jackson Means will be serving as a Collections Assistant at the Virginia Museum of Natural History. Dr. Means, who received his Ph.D. in Entomology from Virginia Tech, will be using his knowledge of myriapods (the subphylum that contains millipedes and centipedes, among others) to curate and update the museum's vast millipede collection, which was largely built by the late Dr. Richard Hoffman. Welcome aboard, Jackson!
