Come to my flash talk tomorrow at Vandsalen room, second session of “Evolutionary-informed management of vulnerable populations in a rapidly changing world “ #SMBE2026 to learn about Rice’s whales genetics, a unique species from the Gulf of Mexico with estimated population of 50 individuals.

A great compliment. I drew most of the graphical abstract and put a lot of love into it 🥰. I cannot take credit for the amazing photo that was my collaborator @yusanyang.bsky.social

Our paper is on the cover of @currentbiology.bsky.social : a strawberry poison frog with the most common color morph, living up to its common name 🍓. In this issue, we uncover the genetic basis of color variation in frogs from Bocas del Toro, where blue, green, yellow, orange, and red morphs occur

And guess what’s on the cover of Current Biology today 🐸

The last chapter of my PhD is finally out !!!! In the same species, on neighboring islands, we see radically different warning colors emerge.

Selection-driven color variation in the aposematic strawberry poison frog, Oophaga pumilioAguilar-Gómez et al. use exome sequencing of 347 strawberry poison frogs to uncover the genetic basis of color variation. They identify that kit, ttc39b, and bco1 underlie blue-red, yellow-red, and gr...www.cell.com
