One of the papers I'm most excited about right now is newly in press at Functional Ecology!

Darien Satterfield & coauthors upend a paradigm cited thousands of times in the fish community and show that body shape does NOT constrain routine swimming in reef fishes!

Check out the amazing movie poster Darien made for her paper: 😍 😂 🐟 🎥 She's not on mastodon yet, but you can find her on twitter @/DiverDarien -- give her a follow!

@kacorn 🤯 going to have to read this one in a lab meeting!

@TheKaneLab it's so good! I'm sure Darien would be happy to come chat about it with you all if you wanted! :)

@kacorn ooo great idea! I'm teaching a Biomechanics course next semester, this could be a good discussion!
