The designs would be created specifically around research in our department, printed professionally, and sold at the EGSA booth during the Insect Fair. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the department. You can further use the designs for your lab purposes, for example, on your lab websites or in email signatures/CVs.<br><br>Please fill out this short Google Form if your lab wants to participate:<br><b><a href="https://forms.gle/F53QSuzZFSiVHb2o7" target="_blank"><<Google Form link>></a></b><br><br>You are very welcome to suggest more than one idea if there are multiple aspects of your research that you think could translate well into a sticker design. The example of designed and printed stickers is attached to this email. The form will also remain editable, so you can update your responses if needed.<br><br>Once the artist prepares the initial design concepts, I will share them with the participating labs so everyone can review them and confirm that they are comfortable with how their research is represented.<br><br>To keep the process moving, I plan to send the <b>first batch</b> of responses to the artist by <b>Wednesday, 12:00 pm</b>, the <b>second batch</b> by the end of <b>this week (Sunday)</b>, and <b>the final batch by March 29th</b>.<br><br>Thank you, and please feel free to reach out if you have any questions!<br><br>All the best,<br>Veronica.</div><div><br></div><div>P.S. Just in case, the art in my signature is NOT done by that artist, so please take a look at the attached files for the example!</div><div><br clear="all"></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><b style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">Veronica Tyts</b></div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif" color="#666666">Ph.D. candidate (she/her) | <a href="https://heteroptera.ucr.edu/" target="_blank">Heteropteran Systematics Lab</a><br></font><div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif" color="#666666">Department of Entomology<br>University of California, Riverside</font></div><div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif" color="#666666"><img src="https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/mail-sig/AIorK4yOGaHxhvtY7u-yrmrhTck-rh-S95NLqa7XUP9p7ohYhT6K-K-TO62UpgPWmBg1JQFSiaRCVRUDEJt8" width="96" height="96"><br></font></div></div></div></div></div>
