New study on reproduction in bull sharks. The ultrasound revealed this female to be pregnant. She is now swimming around with tags telling us where she goes and where she gives birth. @peclabfiu@SulikowskiLab@FIUMarineBio

Had a great time last week sharing @eimedical technology with @georgiaaquarium. The ability to take ultrasound technology underwater is a game changer in advancing ocean science. Where will we use it next? Stay tuned…….
Check it out! A mature male mako shark was tagged off the Sonora coast in the Gulf of California in collaboration with Fins Attached and Pelagios Kakunja under the
CONAPESCA fishing permit with Folio 003/24. Where will he go next??
White shark Aimee P is on the move! She’s been on quite the journey since April! Up to Cape Cod, back down to North Carolina, and now in the Gulf of Mexico. Where will
She go next???🦈🦈
As 2024 comes to an end, we look to 2025 and all the sharky research ahead! Here are a few of the species on our study list. Can you name them? Stay tuned for updates-we can’t wait to get started!
It seems like forever since I’ve been able to share a worm with you and I know Twitter loves a good worm! Hammerhead flatworm. Now, before you tell me to hit it or salt it or boil it, this is in its native country just being a flatworm.
I am recruiting a postdoc in my lab to work on fish habitat associations, movement, and ecology in MS waters. We do telemetry work with a variety of species in our waters (FW->Marine). Chek out this link for more details! andreslab.net/post/recruitin…
Never a dull moment in the Big Fish Lab. Yesterday evening, the team rescued a mature male tope shark that was stranded in a tidal pool. The shark was transported to the marina, swiftly worked up, and then released! Go team 🦈🦈
Super proud of the chapters in the new section of 2nd Ed. Encyclopedia of Fish Physiology on cool physiological adaptations that I had the honour of curating/editing - great job on this one, @science_schoen & team!
