Our @zoologyotago.bsky.social department is home to many wonderful animals. These two adorable Southern Bell froglets were raised by Zoology PhD student Bryony Alden, and are part of a group destined for the display tank in our foyer. They just need to grow up a bit first! 🧪 #outreach #ambassadors

It’s been a busy few weeks for Dr. Sulagna Banerjee who graduates today with her PhD in Genetics. First paper submitted last week too. Congratulations!

The latest preprint from my lab and @PaulSzyszka summarises the work from Sulagna Banerjee's PhD, focusing on the role of NeuroD2 in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE). The main text is live on BioRXv

The latest preprint from our lab asks the question where do young #Xenopus tadpoles get their skin microbiome from? Spoiler alert, both mother and environment play a role. Awesome work from @phoebechapman.bsky.social with Dan Hudson and Xochitl Morgan www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
