This past January at the annual SICB meeting, NYU undergraduate (now graduated!) Gaia 🪲🐝🦋🏳️⚧️ was so inspired by one researcher's work that she had to share with the world. Hear their conversation: urbanevolution-litc.com/2024/07/08/sci… #urbanecology
Shaped by #NaturalSelection, colour can relay fitness to conspecifics & predators, yet how do you quantify it? Currently expensive to do, photos of Anolis lizards' dewlap colour were compared as an alternative ow.ly/5ig950SuFy8 The Linnean Society of London Oxford Journals Jhan C. Salazar
Join us in Atlanta, Georgia in January at SICB ! We are organizing a society-wide symposium on urban evolution and cities as a natural experiment. We would love for you to be a part of it! Check out the details and submit your abstract: urbanevolution-litc.com/sicb-2025-citi… #urbanevolution
In this new #Onyenedumlab preprint we show that ectopic vascular cambia are linked to misexpression of conserved KNOX genes in Wisteria vines! Research led by ilcneto with excellent collaborations with @JLandisBotany, Anthony Snead PhD, and Dr. Chelsea D. Specht 😀 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
✨Speaker spotlight✨ Introducing Dr. Valentina Alaasam @Vale_Alaasam as a SoapboxScienceNYC speaker from New York University 🎉 Come listen to her talk about how birds are coping in our cities! 🐦⬛🌆 Central Park 📅August 23⏲️5pm Soapbox Science
Thrilled to share this preprint from my postdoc w/ Joanna Kelley Studying Zoarcoidei, we detected gradients in antifreeze protein (AFP) copy number across habitat temperature and pressure driven by homologs translocated out of an ancestral AFP array biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
My lab is doing amazing research! Check out this video of a project led by postdoc @Vale_Alaasam & MS student Rafael Baez on urban #biodiversity in #NYC parks!
Joanna Kelley 's project BEAR 🐻 leads the way in implementing genomics into conservation-management plans. Along with @nsf and @PGAFamilyFdn , she will analyze the DNA of bears across the USA to study the effects of the species' rapid population decline. news.ucsc.edu/2024/08/bear-d…
Excited to share our latest paper in Global Change Biology! 🐳Here we examined bowhead and narwhal genomics and the legacy of commercial whaling: dx.doi.org/10.1111/gcb.17… Collabs w/ C. Müller, Matt Thorstensen, S. Ferguson, C. Watt, M. Marcoux, S. Petersen, Colin Garroway
‼️📝New paper! 1st undergrad honor thesis from the lab! Hannah Leigh Owen looked @ thousands of #spottedlanternfly iNaturalist images to study spatio-temporal & phenology patterns of the invasion, & to understand the role of #urban environments in their spread nyu.edu/about/news-pub…
#ProudPI moment: postdocs @Vale_Alaasam & Anthony Snead PhD co-organized an amazing #SICB2025 symposium & PhD student Fallon Meng crushed her first conference talk!
