First speaker @jopabinia, both a fellow Mastodon user and a fellow mask wearer, with a major question: What are the higher level constraints on phenotypes? #SMBE2023
@jopabinia great introduction to the symposium combining fossils and genomics. Also mentioning her "greatest hit": everything (decapods mostly) evolves into crabs. #SMBE2023 #EvoDevo
There are #fossils of nervous systems (!), but very difficult to interpret without #EvoDevo information @jopabinia #SMBE2023
There are very beautiful exceptionally well preserved fossils, but "most fossils look like crap" . Can we use the information of these less well preserved fossils with appropriate evolutionary models? @jopabinia #SMBE2023
@marcrr thanks, was great to meet you today!
