Thinking of all my people up north today, and I mean North of I-10 😂 Stay warm!
I introduced myself yesterday, but now I'd like to introduce you to my pup! This is Hidalgo the itty bitty pitty. He was named after the Disney movie about the horse, since he looks like a painted horse and because he's an underdog as a pitbull. One of his favorite foods is raw kale!

Yellow-eyed rockfish - Sebastes Ruberrimus
Common to the coastal shoals of the Pacific Coast from Baja California to Alaska, this brightly-colored fish is commonly known known to local fishmongers and chefs as as "red snapper." The yelloweye is one of the world's longest-lived fish species, and is cited to live to a maximum of 114 to 120 years of age.

Last summer, Dr. Adrian Smith joined me in the field to capture video of the excavation of an undescribed species of burrowing crayfish. Three hours of digging (we were in the middle of a dry spell), untold numbers of mosquito bites, and a wee bit of caked on mud later I got one. And Adrian’s footage of it was magical; check out the video on his AntLab YouTube channel here:

I recently returned from MBL where we had our first HFSP grant (PIs) meeting. We're super excited about this project and I'm looking for another postdoc to work on walking biomechanics -- check the lab webpage and contact me if you are interested! www.valentinadisanto.com/join-the-team #dothelocomotion #biomechanics #fishsci #postdocjobs #fishphysiology

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!
🚨 New paper alert! 🚨
Have you ever caught and released a #fish and wondered what happens after? Are you interested in how body parts work together? Do you think #sunfish are special and are more than just bait? Then this one is for you!
We make the best of a bad situation and discover something new about fish form and function - fin damage from human capture doesn't decrease prey capture success, but does make kinematics less different among individuals! We suspect this can be bad for competitive ability. Effects may be stronger in populations than individuals.
