I am recruiting an #ERC funded PostDoc to work on the evolution of vertebral counts in Lake Malawi cichlids. This is an experimental project & you should have experience generating reporter lines, live-imaging & experimental embryology.
Apply by 25th Feb.

Check out @callumbucklow's first paper! I hope that the resources presented within will be useful to many. Everything is freely available. Well done!

The first paper from my PhD "A whole-body micro-CT scan library that captures the skeletal diversity of Lake Malawi cichlid fishes" (nature.com/articles/s4159…) has been published in Scientific Data! Thank you to my supervisors @BertaVerd and Roger Benson for their support!

LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!!!

I'm very grateful to have had my project COUNTS selected for funding @ERC_Research #ERCStG, and excited to use this opportunity to study the evolution and evolvability of vertebral counts.

Opportunities in the lab to follow. Get in touch!
