Morphological evolution lab

Morphological evolution lab based at @CamZoology working on the evolution of pigmentation patterns and neural crest cells in cichlid fishes (PI: @emiliapsantos)

We celebrated our 2nd lab retreat in Morston, Norfolk. Lots of productive discussions about science and the lab's future. Plenty of seal sightings, good food, and the weather almost held up!! #GreatBritishSummer! @C__gw @marconi_aleks @JoelElkin416 @AaronHicke62497 @patrsduarte

New pre-print alert 🚨 morphological variation between cichlid species manifests during early embryonic development 🐠🥚 or "show me a #cichlid embryo and I will tell you who they are". see 🧵below:

Getting ready to welcome everyone this afternoon! Let the cichlid fun begin! #cichlidsci22 #cichlids

[Cichlid Science 2022 @Cichlid2022]

🚨Hi there! A few of you reported issues with abstract submission. If you didn't receive a confirmation, it means submission didn't go through. We are really sorry for the inconvenience. The form will be online until Monday evening. Please re-submit or send it to us via email🚨🐟

[Cichlid Science 2022 @Cichlid2022]

📢 Extension for abstract submissions!

We are extending the deadline to Friday 22nd July - please share!

We look forward to receiving your abstracts in the next week #cichlidsci22

This week's #FluorescenceFriday user is @marconi_aleks! Aleksandra studies development of the neural crest in cichlid fish in the @evomorpholab. #HCRimaging allows her to map multiple gene expression simultaneously with striking signal-to-background. See her HCR cichlid GIF here:

[Nikos Konstantinides @nkonst4]

Seriously @FC_UL ? H-index >10 for a first stage researcher? I know MANY great scientists that don’t fulfil this criterion. Trying to reduce multidimensional scientific, personal, mentoring, and other skills into a single dimension? How unscientific…

[Museum of Zoology, Cambridge @ZoologyMuseum]

Join us online on 8 March to celebrate #IWD2022. Hear about the research of four amazing #female scientists, like @EGMitchell, who works on understanding how ecology impacts evolution through deep-time 🕰️

[Julián Torres-Dowdall @DowdallJulian]

I'm thrilled to announce that I'll be starting the Torres-Dowdall lab (https://t.co/gV86roUN2P) in August 2022. It's a great honor to join the Dept of Biological Sciences at @NotreDame. @NDBios is a highly multidisciplinary dept, a dream place to start an integrative research lab

Latest paper now out with some approaches for quantifying pattern variation morphospace in Danio fishes and analysis of mutant phenotypes across species. Great work from @BraeDanio, @_Victor_Lewis and Larissa Patterson at RIC. https://t.co/cSy0JLHckG
