Books By Vincent Laudet - Author

Vincent Laudet has studied for 20 years the role of nuclear hormone receptors and in particular the thyroid hormone receptor in evolution and development using several model organisms such as amphioxus or zebrafish. Between 2015 and 2020 he was director of the marine station of Banyuls-sur-mer in France. There, his group focuses on the evolution of life history strategies, in particular the recruitment of coral reef fish larvae to the reef and the role played by thyroid hormones in triggering and coordinating this process. Since March 2020 he is Professor at OIST (Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University) and Research Fellow at Academia Sinica (Taiwan) where his group develops the clownfish Amphiprion ocellaris as a model organism for Eco/Evo/Devo studies. He focuses in particular on the function and the plasticity of the brilliant pigment patterns of these iconic fishes. His team actively collaborate with Tim Ravasi on the genomics and ecology of anemonefishes from the Ryukyu archipela
