Please share: I'm recruiting 1-2 M.S. or Ph.D. students for fall 2024 at WSU Pullman ! The Corn Lab studies evolution & functional morphology of vertebrates, particularly fishes. More info: kacorn.github.io/opportunities



The Shogren Lab will be growing - we will have openings for ✨3✨ grad students! No official ad yet, but if you (or someone you know) are interested in a MS or PhD in aquatic biogeochemistry please reach out for more info!



🚨New paper🚨 w/ Edward Burress, Peter Wainwright, + my amazing UG Brian Lam is now out in SSE! Comparing cichlids + centrarchids, we find that the cichlid modified pharyngeal jaw increases coevolution of oral and pharyngeal jaws! Read here: doi.org/10.1093/evolut…


Hiring a postdoc to work on U.S. National Science Foundation-funded polyploid salamander genomics/evolution. ~$55k/year, 3 years, teaching opportunities built in. Start as early as May 2024. Great team of students + @Itgenm right now. See the PUI life. Indy is hugely underated. marian.peopleadmin.com/postings/2368





New paper with Dr. Pamela Hart : benthic-to-pelagic microhabitat transition led to faster speciation, but slower phenotypic evolution in a clade of minnows Minnow pics by Julia Wood and Zachariah Allen academic.oup.com/evolut/advance…



New paper (my first as 'senior author'): High-latitude ocean habitats are a crucible of fish body shape diversification with @sarahtfried Katherine Corn, PhD (and others not on here) academic.oup.com/evlett/advance…


Big shoutout to @GraphicsSci for the stunning logo of my new research group at USP - Universidade de São Paulo. Looking for graduate students interested to work on morphological evolution, rodents (but not only), evolutionary trade-offs and macroevolutionary patterns. DM or email me if interested!


Happy to be part of this study led by Saúl Domínguez-Guerrero, with @alencarlrv and @MunozLabYale
