Devin Henrickson · Research Portfolio
Publications, papers, and the work behind them.
A growing academic record of literature reviews, research projects, coursework, and the questions shaping my path through biology.
This is the publication side of my research archive. Each project will be presented with enough context to understand the question, the evidence, the conclusions, and the limits—so the paper is more than a download link.
Current research record
The archive begins with an independent literature review and will expand as new work is completed and prepared for public release.
Adult-Only vs All-Ages Furry Conventions
Prevalence and Economic Impact
This research synthesis examines adult-only versus mixed/all-ages furry conventions in the United States from 2018–2024. It distinguishes adult-only admission policies from adult content or adult merchandise at otherwise mixed-age events.
The public overview identifies the classification framework, prevalence estimates, attendance patterns, economic considerations, data gaps, and ethical limitations. Estimates are labeled as estimates rather than presented as a complete census.
How the archive will grow
The goal is a durable record of the work—not a crowded résumé. New items will be added when they have something meaningful for a reader to examine.
Research papers
Long-form reviews and research syntheses with abstracts, source notes, findings, and clearly stated limitations.
Research projects
Focused pages that explain what a project asks, why it matters, and how the evidence supports—or does not support—the conclusion.
Research notes
Shorter working notes and learning updates that show how ideas develop before they become formal papers.
A clear publication standard
As the archive grows, every paper will be labeled by status and supported by enough information for readers to evaluate it responsibly.
- Full title, author, and publication status
- Abstract and plain-language summary
- Research question and scope
- Evidence, sources, and assumptions
- Findings separated from interpretation
- Limitations and unresolved questions
Research directions
The long-term portfolio will follow the subjects I am building toward through biology: cancer biology and AML, virology, biology of aging, and space biology.
