Have you ever watched a fish eat and thought, “I need to see this 1,000x more”? Well, my colleagues and I did. In a new study, we use 1,110 high-speed videos to examine diversity/evolution of prey capture in 300 cichlid species from 4 adaptive radiations https://t.co/oVObQ2msxl

Don't miss Melissa Brock's PhD defense on the link between microbial communities and changes in the ocean! @brock_ml 🌊🦠🌎 Mon July 8th, 3pm, in 1114 Nat Sci 1 @UCIBioSci

Version accepted for publication. We found that microbes change their allocation to different metabolic pathways with increasing temperatures affecting carbon use and community assembly
