Thank you so much Mari! Your work has been key for my understanding of the evolution of the vertebrate brain

Interested in the evolution of vertebrate organs and cell types?
Then this is a must read review by @margaridamcm.bsky.social
Beautifully explaining the interplay between genome changes, selection forces, development and evolution.
Thank you!
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
Our internal organs are evolutionary marvels. New technologies are transforming our understanding of the evolution of vertebrate organs. You can find more by reading here:

How have concerted and mosaic evolutionary mechanisms shaped the expansion of the human cerebellum?
Our review with @tyamadat.bsky.social and @ioansarr.bsky.social available free till March 29:

A new preprint with Beatriz Vicoso, where we highlight that a common observation in molecular evolutionβX chromosomes adapting faster than autosomesβdoesn't quite add up. So we tested a new theory (www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1...) in fruit flies, mice and humans...
A beautiful example of how deep learning can be put to use in evolutionary biology!
Donβt miss this great opportunity to work with an outstanding scientist and a great mentor!!
Join us at SMBE26! We are in a golden period for understanding the evolution of gene regulation.
Excited to share the latest work from the lab:

Great team effort, led by @enriberti.bsky.social first at @unil.bsky.social and now @unifr.bsky.social; with fantastic collaborators @ribeirocarlitos.bsky.social and @dahaniel.muench.bio.
Modestly, we decided to review a century's worth of theories of balancing selection :) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
