Majo Rodriguez @majorodriguezb.bsky.social · 10/07/2026One month ago, I defended my bachelor's thesis on mitonuclear incompatibilities in F2 swordtail hybrids. This project confirmed how much I enjoy asking questions, making sense of unexpected results, and doing research. It was such a rewarding experience 💛 A big thank you to my mentor, Molly! 2121
Majo Rodriguez @majorodriguezb.bsky.social · 19/04/2026La situación global a veces me abruma, pero hoy encontré esperanza al unirme a un espacio comunitario con el CINVESTAV Mérida y las Chelemeras, mujeres que reforestan manglares. Me inspira ver comunidades apoyándose en causas tan nobles y ser parte de ello. Gracias, sin duda seguiré asistiendo ❤️🩹 110

Majo Rodriguez @majorodriguezb.bsky.social · 22/06/2025Tomorrow at Evolution 2025 I would be presenting my poster about Mitonuclear incompatibilities between two swordtails species! This is a work I been working on for my bachelor thesis project tutored by @mollyschumer.bsky.social Come to Poster A4 to learn more about it! 083

There’s been a lot of fun science and activities 🫶🏽🧬❣️ Fortunately, I also presented my poster about mitonuclear incompatibilities effect in size in swordtail hybrids 😍 Always thankful for the good mentoring, and support from my PI and lab group 🐠 010
Majo Rodriguez @majorodriguezb.bsky.social · 22/11/2024Today I was at a book talk for a biodiversity conservation book. I was thrilled to notice people nowadays are conscious that being in an conservation path means being really political and growing communities that positively support each other 💙.
