We have proudly presented our research projects at ICN 2018 this summer! Monika, Gina, Nik, Veronika and Katerina presented their posters with titles:

Monika – Opsin genes: adaptations to different light environments in West African crater lake cichlids

Gina – Molecular evolution of vision in the elephant fishes (Mormyridae)

Nik – Now you see me, now you don’t: Evolution of the visual sensory system in the deep-sea fishes from the Sargasso Sea

Veronika – Visual system and developmental plasticity of European cyprinid fishes from subfamily Leuciscinae

Katerina – FISHing for Opsins: Photoreceptor Distribution in the Retina of the Cameroonian Crater Lake Cichlid Fishes

Zuza gave a talk entitled “Multiple rod opsin-based vision in deep-sea fishes”.
