Ghostpipefish, trumpetfish & other mysterious seahorse relatives rarely get the spotlight, but our research biologist Syd Ascione is changing that 💙.
Catch our Q&A after her talk at the 12th Indo-Pacific Fish Conference in Taiwan.

Syngnath-curious? So is Syd, our brilliant research biologist who shared the first analysis of what we know (and don’t) about the iconic fishes in the suborder Syngnathoidei at #IPFC2025 side-event last week. Stay tuned for the paper!

I’m off to Taiwan for #ipfc2025 to hang out with fish nerds for a week. I look forward to sharing our research on marine parks and #mesophotic reefs! Who’s going to be there?
