Exciting new position in the Valenzano lab!!

In this new paper we show how cycles of speciation and hybridization have facilitated exceptionally fast adaptive radiations of cichlid fish into hundreds of species across four trophic kevels in just 16“000 years. ⁦Joana Meier⁩ science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

📢‼️ Our Nature is finally out! Despite the fact that several fish taxa colonise Lake Victoria 15.000 years ago, only cichlids were able to radiate in more than 500 spp, WHY?? discover more in the new article by Nare and collaborators ⬇️⬇️ nature.com/articles/s4158…

This week at the #WilhelminenbergSeminarTalks: Martin Reichard visited the KLIVV Vienna to give a fascinating and insightful talk about the evolution of brood parasitism in fishes.🐠 Reichard Lab Czech Academy of Sciences Vetmeduni

Finally, the companion volume to our earlier book is soon out 🥳 This is more about how knowledge about behaviour can be used to solve real world problems 👍

Interested in learning more about sexual selection in a changing world – how does it influence adaptation, how can the information be applied in conservation, and much more discussed in this workshop: centromajorana.it/sexualselectio…
