Subject: Insect trait survey
 
Hey,

Are you or someone you know working on insect traits? We're interested in learning more about how researchers collect, use, and share insect trait data, as well as any challenges encountered along the way.

If you're interested in sharing your experiences, please consider completing our brief survey. It takes about 5 minutes and doesn't collect any personal or private information. We welcome participation from anyone who has used, is currently using, or plans to use insect trait data—regardless of career stage or sector.

Survey link: https://osu.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_a2F7JrJFJ6blH7w

Questions or comments? Feel free to reach out to Kayla Perry at perry.1864@osu.edu.

I've also attached a flyer you could display at your institute to help spread the word.

Thanks!
