Hello Bluesky: Long time listener, first time poster! Excited to share the first publication of my Ph.D. work studying the development of appendage shapes in @plosbiology.org! The zebrafish caudal fin is quite distinctive, and we examine the timing and mechanisms of how its shape might come to be!

Come to Tokyo March 2026 for the limb conference! Honored to be sharing the keynote space with Cliff Tabin and Ken Poss.
As my introduction, I paste the link of my recent paper.
