This clue might be a double definition.

'accommodate expert' is the first definition.
'adapt' can be an answer for 'accommodate' (synonyms). I'm unsure of the 'expert' bit.

'change of heart' is the second definition.
'adapt' can be an answer for 'change' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the 'of heart' bit.

'after' is the link.
