Looking for a postdoc starting this summer for a project on transparent fish. Needs to be able to do optical modeling and understand electron micrographs of tissue. 2.5 years of funding from a foundation that is immune to federal influence. Contact me at sjohnsen@duke.edu

For those interested, a Radiolab episode on my lab’s work on ultrablack deep-sea fish just dropped: radiolab.org

In the midst of the political battles raging here, just posting to say that my book on working at sea and the beauty and strangeness of open ocean animals comes out Tuesday:

Third time is the charm! This is actually Danophos oculatus and not Valencienellus tripunctulatus or Cyclothone like I previously wrote. Cyclothone is indeed likely the most common vertebrate on the planet, with a quadrillion individuals, but this is not it. live = learn.
