Maybe you knew that all female clownfish were once male 🐠🤯 Sex change is a huge transformation for the whole fish, which made us wonder... When a fish changes sex, what changes in the brain 🧠?? If you're wondering too, our new paper has some answers 🥳 rdcu.be/dO429

How similar is the🐠 fish brain to the🐁 mammalian brain? Are there any conserved cell-types or brain regions🧠? Our new article, explores these questions through detailed analysis of gene expression in the fish brain and other vertebrates. rdcu.be/dIA51 @CommsBio

Our preprint profiling the transcriptome of the clownfish brain is out!
🐠🧠 When a fish changes sex, what changes in the brain? Our new preprint goes deep on sex differences in the clownfish forebrain. Findings across diverse cell types & gene expression. What do you think? Tear it up! biorxiv: doi.org/10.1101/2024.01.29.5… #neuroscience #fishsci

I was honored to give a talk at AWESOM (Atlanta Workshop for Single-cell Omics) this year. I met a lot of cool people doing exciting and cutting edge work.

Heeey prairie vole researchers @VoleBase! Our latest, led by @jeannempowell, examines adult aging and shows that social behavior is plastic not only throughout early development, but also well into adulthood. journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…

Wow! That’s beautiful! I hadn’t seen it yet. Thanks for sharing! Here is the link to the paper describing Oxtr mRNA in the vole brain in great detail. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Check out the cover of JCN -that’s a vole brain! “Oxytocin receptors are widely distributed in the prairie vole brain” by Kiyoshi Inoue @lyoun03 and colleagues. doi.org/10.1002/cne.25382

I'm proud our work on epistasis b/w cancer driver mutations is published @CellReports! I hope this work aids in the fight against cancer and ultimately improves human welfare. Thank you to everyone who made it possible including the GDSSP @NIH. doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.202…

Shout out to our tooth team and all the hard work they put into their most recent paper, now published in @FrontDentalMed! We performed single cell sequencing on cichlid teeth and found markers of cell types similar to those in mice and humans 👀🐟 frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

Working on this project was an incredible experience and I am so lucky to have done it with such amazing and generous people. It's great to see this as a preprint after all the careful work our team put in.
we are thrilled to share this preprint! we start "from scratch" and use single nucleus RNA-seq to study a new social behavior and species in neuro. we find evidence for glia, neurogenesis, estrogen, and "fish hippocampus" in social behavior and evolution biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
