Mathias Stølen Ugelvik will defend his doctoral thesis later this month.
Aurelien has studied the genetic structure of deep-water grenadiers in Norwegian waters
Anne Marte has studied whether environmental enrichment affect feeding behavior in juvenile salmon.
Not many of us may yet know that EvoFish has a sister group in China – "EvofishOUC"!
Mathias Stølen Ugelvik is studying host-parasite interactions using Atlantic salmon and salmon louse as the model system. The latest study, published in the Journal of Evolutionary Biology, shows that lice in an area with fish farming have evolved to become more virulent, as predicted by the theory. Now the study has been also discussed by The Scientist!
A new modelling study, published in PNAS, shows that density-dependent growth is important for understanding maturation dynamics in Northeast Arctic cod.
Aurélien Delaval is doing his Masters degree with the EvoFish group at the Department of Biology. Now UiB is highlighting him as an example of the highly international crowd of students that are taking their MSc degree in Bergen.
The ICES Working Group on Fisheries-Induced Evolution (WGEVO) met at IIASA, Austria, to continue with the project mapping the strength of fisheries-induced selection on life-history traits.
Norwegian seafood can pop up in unexpected places.
The temporary EvoFish outpost in Taiwan is active again, this time for a full year: I am now a guest professor at the National Taiwan University.
Silje has studied whether environmental enrichment affects aggressive behaviour in juvenile salmon.
Ingeborg has been studying whether the timing of environmental enrichment affects spatial learning in juvenile salmon.
Eihab has been studying how shape and colour have changed in experimentally harvested guppy populations.
Janne and Aurelien have started their Master's projects with the roundnose grenadier - Janne with feeding ecology and Aurelien with spatial population structure.
Following the tradition establish in 2015, EvoFish convened at the Bekkjarvik Gjestgiveri for the annual meeting.
