Comment(s)
I am also the owner of a Discord server that is built around networking within the realm of Cephalopod researchers. I created it so that people have the opportunity to form collaborations, ask questions, and develop professional rapport with other cephalopod researchers. So, if this is something that interests you feel free to reach out to me on here, or through Twitter!
Also, this website does not like my twitter link so here's mine :)
