1st yr PhD & publishing in a top parasitological journal! @KellyThys_​ sheds light on genetics of the flatworm Dolicirroplectanum lacustre & suggests a potential founder effect resulting from its introduction into Lake Victoria. https://t.co/Hz4nOl38kW

Honoured to be able to show the world of ecology our signature approach to historical fish collections together with one of the best parasitologists I know! @DrChelseaLWood @UW_SAFS @UW #collectionsareessential @BiTE_UHasselt @CMK_Uhasselt @uhasselt

Proud of the team representing @BiTE_UHasselt @CMK_Uhasselt @uhasselt at the @ICOPAnhagen (including @Tiziana_Gobbin remotely)! #ICOPA2022 #ICOPAnhagen #collectionsareessential @KmentovaNikol @AJCruzLaufer @KellyThys_

[Nico J Smit @NicoJSmit1]

In person conferences such as @ICOPAnhagen is not only about attending amazing sessions but also, very importantly, meeting up with old friends and making new ones. Great evening yesterday with the groups of @Bernd_AquatEcol @DrChelseaLWood & @MPM_Vanhove

[Maarten Vanhove @MPM_Vanhove]

Honoured to welcome @MollyMcDonough8 from @ChicagoState, @adamwferguson from @FieldMuseum and Stephan Koblmüller from @EcoEvoGraz @UniGraz to @BiTE_UHasselt @CMK_Uhasselt @uhasselt! Could not be prouder of my team. #collectionsareessential

[Maarten Vanhove @MPM_Vanhove]

Almost "full house" to discuss @Green_Darkie's PhD close to submission. Almost there! And then it is up to the jury... #zoology #biodiversity #flatwormsofinstagram #biodiversitypolicy #bioculturaldiversity @BiTE_UHasselt @CMK_Uhasselt @uhasselt @theNWU @NWU_AACRG @SimGeorgieva

[Nikol KMENTOVA @KmentovaNikol]

Please let me introduce you two the morphotypes of Dolicirroplectanum lacustre infecting Lates niloticus in Lake Albert! Check out the rest of the story in our preprint! @KellyThys_ @MPM_Vanhove @BiTE_UHasselt @MaartenVSte @Phinnochromis https://t.co/l6qrx3cys6

[Maarten Vanhove @MPM_Vanhove]

Introduced "Victoria perch" is well-known, but did you ever ask if its monogenean parasites went through a founder effect en route? Also perhaps intrasp. hybrids in these diplectanid flatworms. @KellyThys_ 1st PhD MS! @BiTE_UHasselt @CMK_Uhasselt @uhasselt https://t.co/yQC5V25Sie
