We are deeply saddened to share that Michael Freeling passed away on 7/20/2026 after a year-long battle with cancer. Our deepest condolences go to his family, friends, colleagues, and the many students he inspired. We will share additional memorial information soon.
#zebrafish genome update: So for those of you waiting for RefSeq annotations to hit the GRCz12ab genome, UCSC has generated annotations via BLAST based on the RefSeq RNA's generated for TU.
We are hiring!! We offer a 4-year PhD contract to join our newly granted project on EvoDevo and Genomics in the University of Barcelona 2026-2030. Postdocs are also welcome ➡️ evodevogenomics-unibarcelona.weebly.com/join-us.html @geneticsub.bsky.social @irbio-ub.bsky.social @the-node.bsky.social

Our hotel at the #EZM2026 conference in Vienna has the appropriate incubation temperature for #zebrafish development. Well done, conference organizers! 🦓🐟
🚨 MANUSCRIPT ALERT 🚨 The VGP Phase I manuscript pre-print is now live on bioRxiv! 🧬 doi.org/10.64898/202... Over 8 years, the VGP generated reference genomes for more than 800 vertebrate species, spanning ~95% of vertebrate orders and delivering some of the highest-quality genomes ever produced.

At #PASEDB we embrace all organisms! Each one has its own evolutionary trajectory that makes life so diverse 🌈
This is important! Haeckel goes single cell! Congrats @mwdorr.bsky.social and team!
Mike Dorrity@mwdorr.bsky.social · 2mo agoFirst pre-print from the lab, a collaborative effort led by Jess Bourn @bournsupremacy.bsky.social, a fantastic PhD in my group. We resolve a key problem in development + evolution: how do we quantify heterochrony and link temporal variation to phenotype? www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
New in @science.org ...since our first discoveries of early tetrapods, they have been thought of as "amphibians" characterized by aquatic larvae. But is this true? For the first time, we report exceptional fossils of stem tetrapod babies that upend this paradigm. 1/n www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Direct development of stem tetrapods across the fin-to-limb transition
Modern amphibians are characterized by an aquatic larval stage that ends abruptly with a period of widespread tissue remodeling (metamorphosis) upon transition to terrestrial adulthood. A transient la...

I first met Neil Shubin 30 years ago when he was digging for fossils of our fishy ancestors in Pennsylvania road cuts. Now he's becoming president of the National Academy of Sciences. We talked about taking the helm of the 163-year-old organization at this fraught moment. Gift link: nyti.ms/4giD3FX
