Thrilled to be featured in the #JExpZoo postdoc spotlight as I transition into the field of evo-devo! Grateful for the recognition and eager to make new discoveries. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

First preprint from my postdoc. We uncovered signatures of molecular convergence across teleosts and found that the convergent genes are multifunctional and pleiotropic. This was surprising considering that pleiotropic genes are considered to impede adaptation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I had a splendid time presenting the utility of evolutionary convergence in developing hypotheses about the mechanisms and trajectories behind the evolution of traits. #LausanneFishMeeting
