Happy to share our latest work on the stunning fish species Betta splendens. @DowdallJulian and I investigated the remarkable expansion of long wave sensitive opsin genes in anabantoid fishes. link.springer.com/article/10…
Proud to see my first first-author paper published in @molecology. Together with @SabineUrban3 @EvoLab_Konstanz and @C_Kratochwil we investigated how modularity might have driven diversification of color patterns in Lake Malawi cichlids.

One fish 🐟
two fish 🐠🐠
striped fish
spotted fish?
McCluskey et al @parichylab studied pigment patterns in close species and found the patterns have a complex #genetic basis, depending on multiple #genes and interactions

New @BIOTECH_UH group leader @C_Kratochwil describes the 2020’s an exciting time to be a biologist. New technologies permit researchers to answer questions that one couldn't even think of addressing 10 yrs ago. @helsinkiuni @IntEvoBio @HiLIFE_helsinki

Here’s our very first attempt at live imaging an east african cichlid embryo. Look at those pigment cells! @evomorpholab with @DrMattBenton

I hope you can find someone that looks at you the way kokanee salmon looks at upstream.
Check out the beautiful work by @DowdallJulian @NidalKaragic and @HaererAndreas on the visual system of Neotropical cichlids!

We have a new preprint out on Danio pigment pattern evolution. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Amazing!
Delighted to see our paper on the "most outstanding example of adaptive radiation", the ~240 species of cichlid fishes in African Lake Tanganyika, published in @nature ! 2 genomes per species, 3D-morphology, ecology, three pulses of phenotypic evolution...

Best thing about a #science career is I get to see cool things down the microscope every day. Today I was looking at larval #zebrafish infected with fluorescent bacteria. The bacteria had made it into this one’s heart!

Our new work on morphological color change in cichlid fishes is out in @SciReports Congrats to Yipeng Liang for a fabulous job! nature.com/articles/s41598-0… @EvoLab_Konstanz #Colsci🐠

Fully funded PhD position in my group. Cichlids in heavily fished populations breed at half the size. Apply computational genomics to whole genome and museum sequencing data to find out why. Apply by Aug. 10 following this link: uantwerpen.be/en/jobs/vacanc…
Great work by @NidalKaragic et al. on convergent evolution in cichlid teeth!🐟🦷

I am very happy to announce that my paper about Wnt6 function and potential interactions with Wg in Drosophila maxillary palps was published this week! I am very proud and thankful to all my co-authors and my PhD supervisor Alistair @McGregorLab @c2mendes
