🎨 Think reef fish colors are fixed? Think again.
Adult sunrise dottybacks (P. flavivertex) can change color and pattern over time, with different morphs converging toward similar appearances. #CoralReefs #ReefFish #KAUST

Proof that you don’t have to live by the ocean to be inspired to study it.

A fun fact: Dr. Majoris grew up in western Pennsylvania—far from the ocean! 🌾
After a summer at Penn State’s Governor’s School, he set up a saltwater aquarium in his basement. When the fish began breeding, it sparked a lifelong fascination with marine life. 🐠💙

🐠 Meet Dr. John Majoris, one of the newest faculty members in Penn State Biology!
His lab studies the “real-life Finding Nemo” — how tiny reef fish larvae navigate the open ocean to find a reef to call home. 🌊👇🧵

The #MajorisLab setup continues with our #fijicube advanced sumps. We’re on track to raise our first marine fish larvae later this month. #islanduniversity @AFS_ELHS #tamucc

[John Majoris @Goby_Wan]

Let it glow, let it glow, let it glow! The Majoris wet lab is finished and ready to raise fish in the new year. #MajorisLab #tamucc

[John Majoris @Goby_Wan]

Postdoc opportunity! Join an outstanding and supportive lab studying tiny fish with a big impact.

@Pombo_lu @CharmofTxCoast @IslandCampus There are 40(!) hummingbirds at the feeders on my front porch this weekend! I hear you'll be joining us in TX soon! Keep in touch 🙂

[John Majoris @Goby_Wan]

It’s hummingbird season in Coastal TX! These tiny birds are fueling up for their flight across the GoM. Come experience this amazing migration at the Rockport HummerBird Celebration this weekend @CharmofTxCoast, @IslandCampus.

Visualizing Science! I'm holding a series of free, online workshops, thanks to Johns Hopkins University. All are welcome! I plan to have fun with Danielle VanBrabant, Damond Kyllo, and Amey Zhang to introduce visualization topics and challenges. No art experience is necessary.

[John Majoris @Goby_Wan]

The Majoris Lab at TAMU-CC is recruiting an MS or PhD student to study the dispersal traits of marine fish larvae. Excited to hear from any and all interested students. Reach out ASAP. Full details at: https://t.co/JN7CTfAEr2…

Now with the #LFC47 business meeting over - back to some science talks on Advances in systematics, early life history and population demographics: tools of the trade with talks from @Goby_Wan, Tony Miskiewicz, @maddie_tomczak, @Baumannlab1, and John Hume.

[Hannah Rempel @queenparrotfish]

Blennies may provide key food web links between detritus, inverts, & algae they consume & bigger fish that eat them! I had a great time sharing my work on what stable isotopes & DNA metabarcoding can reveal about their trophic roles at the Texas Bays & Estuaries Mtg!

[John Majoris @Goby_Wan]

Fantastic undergraduate research opportunity studying coral biology in the Bahr Lab at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi! Applications due soon!

[Pete Buston 🐟 @BustonLab]

From my perspective @BlackinMarSci is one of the organizations having the biggest impact on our field 👏 👏 👏
