Gene locus for sex determination in the European green toad identified. This is only the 2nd known genetic mechanism for sex differentiation > 8600 #amphibian species. Important for #research on #EndocrineDisruptors. @NatureComms @LeibnizIGB @NUSingapore 👉https://t.co/VGrsNLhKLI

How do toads know whether to become boys or girls? Thrilled to share that findings from a wonderful collaboration with Heiner Kuhl and Matthias Stoeck from Leibniz Institute in Berlin @LeibnizIGB have just been published. @NUSingapore

@CarneyTomJ Cool! I always wanted to be part of a Kompetenzkonflikt 😉

[Tom Carney @CarneyTomJ]

Great analysis by collaborators in medaka, paddlefish (Amanda Cass and Marcus Davis), xenopus, sharks and lampreys maps the presence of this intermediate fin across vertebrates. @dbswcw @Enrique1Amaya @JanStundl @BronnerMarianne @petecurr

From tank to bedside: Our work on the medaka fish model identified a promising blood marker predicting osteoporosis risk in men.

[FOS Research @ResearchFoS]

NUS scientists have discovered that blood levels of the chemokine protein CXCL9 reliably predict the risk of osteoporotic hip fractures in Chinese men.

Our first human study based on findings in our medaka fish model - so exciting!
