Another PhD chapter published by Ioanna Gavriilidi (@UAFunMorph ), now out in Journal of Zoology (@OfficialZSL) She finds that island-dwelling lizards tend to rely less on chemosensory cues compared to their mainland counterparts. https://t.co/a24oyuZ9NY

Excited to share my first paper using population #genomic analyses! 🧬💻 Here, we explore the potential role of interspecific admixture during the colonisation of a small island by Italian wall #lizards 🦎🏝️ Spoiler alert: they did it all by themselves!

Oecologia - The successful establishment of small founding populations introduced into novel environments often represents a paradox, given the genetic challenges they face. Genetic admixture,...

Our new preprint is out: Introgression dynamics of-sex linked chromosomal inversions shapes the Malawi cichlid adaptive radiation https://t.co/dTjPpBQZcz

Chromosomal inversions contribute to adaptive speciation by linking co-adapted alleles. Querying 1,375 genomes of the species-rich Malawi cichlid fish radiation, we discovered five large inversions...

New paper alert! 💥 @UAFunMorph's Ioanna Gavriilidi and @Lisa_VanLinden explore the relationship between #inbreeding and animal #cognition, and highlight the current research gap on the effect of inbreeding on cognition in wild populations 🧬🧠

Recently @FWOVlanderen @FWOKennismakers featured an interview between @UAFunMorph #PhD student Ioanna Gavriilidi and @KULeuven student Lauren Ottaviani. Two young female researchers discussing their respective study topics - a great read! 🦎🏝️📰👩🎓 https://t.co/fiyOF9RZCL

In practice, this means filming the boxfish with as many as 8 cameras 📹, a lot of computer work, and of course, taking care of the fishes! #WomenInScience #February11

#WomenAndGirlsInScience SPOTLIGHT DAY 6! @Merel_Van_Gorp is studying manoeuvrability in #boxfish 🐡 which will give us more insight into how the manoeuvrability of rigid slow-moving underwater vehicles can be improved

Every two years, Raoul and I organize 'Herp Talks' at @UAntwerpen. Exciting for the 2024 edition, as we've gathered a fantastic group of researchers presenting their work on salamanders, frogs, lizards, snakes, and other loathsome creatures! 🦎🐍🐸 #Herpetology #Research"

Eleesha is currently busy with analysing lots of 3D images of Cape cliff lizard osteoderms (bony plates in the skin) to better understand their shape variation across populations 🦎
