A single gene underlies male mating morphs in ruff sandpipers, a new Science study finds. The results show how evolutionary changes in a single gene's structure, sequence, and regulation can drive significant diversity within a single species.

Direct exposure to #chemical #pollutants can cause #transcriptional alteration on the brain of marine fish, but also sex specific #transgenerational effects are seen up to the third generation. Check it out on my first published PhD chapter! @celiaschunter

#warming response was strong, affecting stress and behaviour.
#acidification was more diverse with many functions altered, such as behaviour, visual perception, dopamine, gaba and the #circadianrhythm.

The different #brainregions shows different responses to #climatechange Both, the cleaner wrasse and the client fish (Acanthurus sp.) alter their #thyroid hormone response in any #future condition. but also, the signals are quite different between #warming and #acidification.

L.dimidiatus revealed to have many #gene family #contractions instead.
Namely in #olfactory receptors. We find the cleaner wrasse much rely more on touch and even on taste #sensory perception.

Labroides dimidiatus now has a reference genome! It's chromosome-scale for you to use in future studies. Would you expect that this fish, with all it's amazing behaviours would have expanded its genome? Well, no! In fact it became more specialised. link.springer.com/article/10.118…

First day of Adv #singlecell #RNAseqtraining in the amazing facility of @EarlhamInst. A lot of insights and networking! Looking forward to the upcoming sessions in #dataAnalysis 👩💻

#climatechange is affecting the #behaviour of cleaner wrasse, causing broader effects on the entire #coral #reef #ecosystem.
The University of Hong Kong@HKUniversity
Global warming affects fish behaviour. @celiaschunter team @SWIMSHKU are looking at how the behaviour of cleaner wrasses changes with rising sea temperatures - wrasses initiate less cleaning of other fish which may have knock-on effects on the health of coral ecosystems.

It's not always so easy to build a career when there are #languagebarriers for non-naive English speakers
Tatsuya Amano@tatsuya_amano
How hard is it to do science in a language that’s not your first language? We quantified the severity of #languagebarriers for non-native English speakers when reading/publishing papers and attending/presenting at international conferences. doi.org/10.1371/journa… 1/9

Nature Portfolio@NaturePortfolio
Practitioners in the field of single-cell omics are faced with many options for analytical tools to process and integrate data from molecular modalities. An article in @NatureRevGenet provides guidance on robust single-cell data analysis. 🔒 go.nature.com/3oCvkKa

Dr Celia SCHUNTER'S research team studies the effects of ocean acidification on fish and conducts baseline surveys to uncover the mysteries of the ocean. Don't miss this interview with Dr Schunter!

🐟🐠🐡 #HKU scholar @celiaschunter in collaboration with researchers from other institutions found the basis to variability across different fish species, and that being able to evolve quicker means they can cope with ocean acidification better. More on: go.hku.hk/pr24181
