Do populations evolve similar traits through the same or different genetic mechanisms?

🐠A #cavefish study identifies that repeated evolution comes from reusing a limited subset of genomic regions, affecting eye size, sleep, and feeding traits.

Amazing colleagues, great support, wonderful place to live and raise a family (5-10min commute, low crime, best schools)

PSA: I told 23andme to delete my data several years ago and got confirmation. Today I got a spam from them with a "view my report" button.

You'll never guess what I'm gonna say next. You get two guesses and the first one is wrong answers only.
