Great opportunity to learn fish husbandry, genetics, and evodevo with zebrafish, skates, and some other unique fish. Thanks RT!!

The ontogenetic processes are a bit different between spines and rays ! Great study by Miyamoto et al. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.03.01.640274v113 Mar 2025 20:46 +0000at://did:plc:55dowozhf4o7zvv25dcr24vi/app.bsky.feed.post/3lkbxoxtx5c2shttps://bsky.app/profile/nakamuralab.bsky.social/post/3lj6whujoic2xStarted from ontogenetic and molecular studies of living lineages, authors found reciprocally cavitated joints in placoderms. Placoderms can move pectoral fins very smoothly!!

The situation is very concerning and massive thread to basic science. But please do remember - we are scientists and change the world using the power of science. That’s our heart. Focus on your science whatever happens. We won’t be distracted.24 Feb 2025 04:20 +0000at://did:plc:55dowozhf4o7zvv25dcr24vi/app.bsky.feed.post/3livioipgsc2khttps://bsky.app/profile/nakamuralab.bsky.social/post/3lipsr7vf3k2nToday, our lab read https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-56221-1 from @devegenaimeezuniga.bsky.social showing two distinct cell populations determine the number and identity of digits. We found two genetic modules generate skate and shark fin diversity a while ago. Very intriguing. https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.152181811221 Feb 2025 22:04 +0000at://did:plc:55dowozhf4o7zvv25dcr24vi/app.bsky.feed.post/3lipsr7vf3k2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/nakamuralab.bsky.social/post/3lilcoahdb22bVery high resolution study of osteocytes in ancient fishes!
