BREAKING: the White Cliffs of Dover have been illuminated with the UK 'warming stripes' for #ShowYourStripes day!

These stripes represent the UK average temperature from 1884 to 2022 with blue colours for colder years and red colours for hotter years.

Octopuses can adapt to changes in temperature by tweaking their genetic code to change the proteins that are made in their nerve cells. https://t.co/tqXP0PvzMA

From stem cells to a heartbeat, researchers at the Crick have developed a way to grow specialised heart muscle cells in the lab 🫀🧫

These could help to improve heart research and the development of future treatments for heart disease.

It's Day 1 of the Year 13 Biologists’ field trip to @FSCJuniperHall , where they are conducting a Woodland Biodiversity study. It includes mark recapture and a comparison study of a coppiced and mature forest. @QueenswoodSTEM @RoyalSocBio

Investigating light with a local primary school. How can we show that light travels in straight lines?

[Queenswood Science @QueenswoodSTEM]

This looks very interesting particularly for Yr 11 and Yr 12 biologists

[The Royal Society @royalsociety]

With developments in genetics, has science progressed enough that we can bring animals back from extinction? Or should we? Join @mslucycooke, @geochurch, @bonesandbugs and Mike Benton online tomorrow for #BritishScienceWeek as they discuss #deextinction: https://t.co/s1QG0sI8DI
