We investigate Risor ruber, the tusked goby, a tiny sponge-dwelling fish.

Across the Caribbean, we find seven distinct genetic lineages within Risor and discover that two Risor lineages specialize on a single sponge host!

The first post here couldn't be more exciting... My first PhD paper is out in Environmental DNA! 🧬💧

It provides an accessible way to visualize methodological aspects and understand the current applications of eDNA/eRNA in community ecology!
