Killifish, the cockroaches of the water:
"The large populations of killifish and the genetic diversity of the species have enabled it to evolve and survive in areas where other species have died out, including Superfund sites. [...] have evolved resistance against levels of dioxins, PCBs, mercury, and other industrial chemicals up to 8,000 times higher than the previously estimated lethal dose."
Mangrove #killifish are usually solitary but Chloe Melanson Simon Lamarre & Suzanne Currie found that having social experiences helps them stay in warm waters longer before leaping out in search of a new home

This New Species Is a Fish out of Water by Choice
The Juan Deriba killifish, found in a tiny area of Bolivia, jumps out of water to evade threats.

In a new study, researchers used artificial intelligence to analyze data from a wide variety of #tissues, collected from #humans, #mice, #rats and #killifish. They discovered that the length of #genes can explain most #molecular-level changes that occur during #aging.

Hello! Just dropping a video of my Aphyosemion Australe “burnt orange” killifish requesting some food. They just recently moved up to this new 10 gallon tank so their fry could grow up in the old one. Love these pretty little fish.

The #BenayounLab at #USC is still looking for a Research Lab Tech II to join us and work with #killifish to help us better understand #aging! This is a unique opportunity to participate in cutting-edge aging research in #sunnyLA - please RT! https://usc.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/fr-FR/ExternalUSCCareers/job/Los-Angeles-CA---University-Park-Campus/Research-Lab-Technician-II_REQ20125244
