@Caroline_Bartma I was recently describing what a scientific conference was to a non-science friend, and he was jealous. "Like wait you get to go share your work, see other cool work, and chat with nerds in your field?" Yup. That.

@zbreeves It feels like I'm playing Silent Hill up here. Honestly hoping to find the Butcher and not have to live like this for the next 50 years.

[Brian Herrin @BrianHerrin24]

@zbreeves Ok, remake it then...

@madmcbutters Luckily, you were spared with the details on how long of an uphill walk they had to make and how deep the snow was!

What do you mean you aren’t happy because you miss the big city? Manhattan is the Manhattan of Kansas.

Today, Cherokee Nation unveiled its first public, rural eco-friendly electric buses to transport employees and tribal citizens to work and tribal health centers, and its first electric school bus, which is the first of its kind in the state of Oklahoma.

Guinea worm, caused by Dracunculus medinensis, was thought still endemic in only 5 African countries.
But a new Dracunculus sp. not previously reported, has been described in a 23M in #Vietnam with no travel history.

In 2012, CAPC started a partnership with statisticians at Clemson University in order to develop and provide parasite forecasts as a public service to communities across the country. The 2021 National Parasite Prevalence Forecast Maps will be released on April 28th!
