Why do some fish evolve placentas?</p><p>In this episode, we talk with <a href="https://profiles.ucr.edu/david.reznick" target="_blank" title="David Reznick"><strong>David Reznick</strong></a><strong>, Distinguished Professor of Biology at the University of California, Riverside</strong>. David has spent much of his career studying Trinidadian guppies to understand adaptation in the wild. In our conversation, we discuss this work with David and in particular how his research provided evidence for rapid life history evolution. We also talk with him about his recent research into placental evolution in live-bearing fish.</p><p>Ep 145: Evolution at the speed of life (with David Reznick)</p><p><a class="btn-ucr" href="https://www.bigbiology.org/episodes/2026/2/12/ep-145-evolution-at-the-speed-of-life-with-david-reznick" target="_blank" title="Listen to the Podcast" aria-label="Listen to the Podcast">Listen to the Podcast</a></p> <div class="tags-title">Tags</div> <div class="tags-list"> <div><a href="https://cnas.ucr.edu/tags/department-evolution-ecology-and-organismal-biology" hreflang="en">Department of Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology</a></div> <div><a href="https://cnas.ucr.edu/tags/david-reznick" hreflang="en">David Reznick</a></div> </div> <div class="sharing-title">Share This</div><span class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 addtoany_list" data-a2a-url="https://cnas.ucr.edu/media/2026/02/12/evolution-speed-life" data-a2a-title="Evolution at the speed of life"><a class="a2a_button_facebook"></a><a class="a2a_button_x"></a><a class="a2a_button_linkedin"></a><a class="a2a_button_google_plus"></a><a class="a2a_button_email"></a><a class="a2a_button_printfriendly"></a><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share" aria-label="more options to share" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share#url=https%3A%2F%2Fcnas.ucr.edu%2Fmedia%2F2026%2F02%2F12%2Fevolution-speed-life&amp;title=Evolution%20at%20the%20speed%20of%20life"></a></span><script> (function () { const customClassName = 'show-for-sr'; const targetContainer = document.querySelector('.a2a_kit.addtoany_list'); if (!targetContainer) return; const addClassToLabels = () => { const labels = targetContainer.querySelectorAll('.a2a_label'); if (labels.length > 0) { labels.forEach(label => { if (!label.classList.contains(customClassName)) { label.classList.add(customClassName); } }); console.log('Successfully applied show-for-sr class to AddToAny labels.'); return true; } return false; }; const observerConfig = { childList: true, subtree: true }; const observer = new MutationObserver((mutationsList, observer) => { if (addClassToLabels()) { observer.disconnect(); } }); if (!addClassToLabels()) { observer.observe(targetContainer, observerConfig); } })(); </script> Fri, 13 Feb 2026 19:37:14 +0000 tomwt 3974 at https://cnas.ucr.edu
