We are at the European Researchers Night #NEI2024 @cienciaviva talking about climate change and hybridization between species 🐟🐠 Come talk to us at MUHNAC! CE3C CIÊNCIAS ULisboa

New paper from our group! We described a new fish specie endemic to the Sado river basin in Portugal: Squalius caetobrigus 🐟 You can check out our little friends and read all about it here: limnetica.net/es/new-species…

The EGB group is attending the CE3C annual meeting taking place on 12th-14th December in Monsanto.On the 10th CE3C annual meeting, themed "Rings of Experience: Growing Towards Tomorrow", our members will be presenting their posters and presentations.Stay tunned for more!

It really was a great experience to present part of the work I have done in the past year at Evolutionary Genomics and Bioinformatics group in the 10th Frontiers in E3 CE3C! Really appreciated the feedback. I'll be talking again about hybridization in Iberian chubs on December 19 at XX ENBE 🐟🧬

Last week, at CE3C annual meeting, our master student Estêvão Faustino Faustino presented his work on hybridization in Iberian chubs. 🐟

In the 10th Frontiers in E3, our master student Catarina Santos presented her work on cell culture of endemic freshwater fish.🧫🔬 CE3C

Our research technician Catarina Bernardo presented her initial insights on her new project: "Building a recombination map of Iberian chubs".🐟 ✨🏆Catarina won the best poster presentation on the CE3C annual meeting!

Yesterday, at XX ENBE, our Msc student Estêvão Faustino present his recent work on hybridization in Iberian chubs. CE3C CIÊNCIAS ULisboa

Our lab has PhD + MSc positions available in 2025 on the molecular or evolutionary ecology of fishes. Projects are part of long-term research programs and can combine molecular, field and/or common garden experiments. Come join a great team! #brooktrout #walleye #laketrout

XX ENBE 2024 is over! 🎉🎉 Thank you to all the participants and invited speakers that made it a success! 🤩 Next year, XXI ENBE will be in Bragança! See you all there 🧬

🎙️Our team member Sofia L. Mendes was recently featured in 90 Segundos de Ciência, where she spoke about her work on the description of an endemic fish species in the Sado River basin: Squalius caetobrigus. ▶️Tune in to hear more (only in 🇵🇹): 90segundosdeciencia.pt/episodes/ep-19…… CE3C

(1/3) We congratulate our team member Catarina Santos for the defence of her MSc dissertation, entitled "Using cell culture of endemic freshwater fish to study the effects of temperature on plasticity"!🐟

(1/2) Happy World Water Day! 💧🌎 Today, March 22, we celebrate the World Water Day! This day aims to raise awareness about the importance of the preservation and sustainable management of freshwater resources. 📍Ardila River, Barrancos

(1/3)📢New paper out in Molecular Ecology! 📎 Available at: doi.org/10.1111/mec.70… By combining a broad sampling of the different Iberian Squalius species across the Iberian Peninsula with whole genome sequencing, we uncovered multiple cases of hybridization between species.
