Frontiers | Optimizing Egg Production by Trait Selection and Starvation in Hydra vulgaris Hydra vulgaris is considered an effectively immortal freshwater Cnidarian. As a sistergroup to all Bilateria, studies of Cnidarian genomes offer valuable evo...

Excited to share new results from our lab!! Research led by our research specialist Kelso assisted by undergrad Jo, they figured out how to increase egg yield in Hydra www.frontiersin.org/journals/eco...

New work in #G3journal from @maphillips.bsky.social and colleagues shows how selection intensity shapes the genomic architecture of adaptation in #yeast, highlighting the importance of caution when extrapolating results from lab studies to natural populations. buff.ly/T1O2RPJ

Recent work from the lab led by post doc Kenneth Arnold.

Work from post doc with Molly Burke on how selection intensity shapes the genomic architecture of adaptation. See: academic.oup.com/g3journal/ar...

Recent work from the lab led by post doc @drhubert.bsky.social. In flies where selection for early reproduction has led to accelerated aging, we find repeatable metabolome evolution involving shifts in energy metabolism. “Clock” models also appear to capture signals of biological age.

Excited to share our new paper with @maphillips.bsky.social‬ ‬published in @genomebiolevol.bsky.social:
"Selection for Early Reproduction Leads to Accelerated Aging and Extensive Metabolic Remodeling in Drosophila melanogaster"

Postdoctoral Scholar in Evolutionary Development University of California, Santa Cruz is hiring. Apply now!

Please share! I am hiring a postdoc in Evolutionary Development to join our lab 🧪 🥼 🧬 recruit.ucsc.edu/JPF01855 initial reviews begin Jan 31st (to be adjusted in the ad)

Noticed that. I'll blame the last name for why I get them.

I started an Aging Research starter pack. Feels very sparse right now, so (1) let me know who I missed and (2) we need to recruit a few folks who abandoned science twitter some time ago back into the fold.

Recently learned my NIH MIRA proposal to study the factors that shape/underlie complex trait variation using Drosophila experimental evolution will be funded. Looking to fill postdoc position in the near future. Please reach out if interested.
