Fantastic talk last night by Martha Muñoz Yale EEB hosted by SBU Ecology & Evolution for Darwin Day! Fascinating research, engaging talk, and an all-around awesome person. Thank you for visiting, Martha!

Friedman & Muñoz find that high-latitude fish clades with the fastest speciation rates also exhibit elevated rates of depth evolution, creating a prevailing latitudinal gradient of deep-sea invasions. Sarah Friedman, PhD Muñoz Lab Yale EEB nature.com/articles/s4146…

Congrats to YIBS affiliates Dr. Sarah Friedman (Hutchinson postdoc) & Prof. Martha Muñoz (Yale EEB) on their publication in Nature Communications! They explore the link between fish being able to shift between water depths and species diversification. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Research from former Yale Institute for Biospheric Studies postdoc Sarah Friedman, PhD and Peabody curator Martha Muñoz has revealed the biodiversity engine for fishes: shifting water depth. Unfortunately, climate change could be overheating it. Muñoz Lab news.yale.edu/2023/02/13/stu… Yale University Yale EEB

Guess what paper I get to cover in discussion section this week for our course on #Evolution Yale EEB!

Environmental justice, ecology, data gaps, education, art and music?! Happy to share the recording on our vision for more just, and fun way so sampling biodiversity with open source tech. youtube.com/watch?v=pPaBCI…

I'm INCREDIBLY excited to share that I'll be pursuing my PhD at Yale EEB this fall where I'll be working with Jenn Coughlan !!!! I'm grateful to start the next chapter of my education 🌱🧬 and for all my mentors along the way.

I’m beyond excited to have received an NSF GRFP!! Can’t wait to go burn some grasses :) U.S. National Science Foundation Yale EEB
