New preprint! How have birds evolved to feed on mostly simple sugars? We found convergence in key genes and pathways across different sugar-feeding bird groups. Huge thanks to our amazing team: Meng-Ching Ko (Maggie), Maude Baldwin, Michael Hiller, and Tim Sackton #Evolution #metabolism

We held our 10th and final retreat of LOEWE Centre Translational Biodiversity Genomics in #Glashütten, in the beautiful #Taunus! It was the perfect blend of engaging discussions, hiking, nostalgia, and exciting plans.💪 So nice to have the whole team together — thank you all for the amazing time! 😍
