Our own Sophie Agha did an amazing job of presenting phase I of her research studying the effects of anoxia on cognitive function in turtles today at our undergraduate research conference! @SLUBiology
You have permission to rest. You are not responsible for fixing everything that is broken. You do not have to try and make everyone happy. For now, take time for you. It’s time to replenish.

[PT-BR] Uma história incrível e muito bem sucedida de conservação e manejo de felinos e fazendeiros!
🐯¿Es posible mejorar la relación entre félidos y ganaderos en Costa Rica? Desde 2013, un proyecto que involucra a autoridades ambientales y a una organización de conservación ha logrado reducir la depredación de ganado y la cacería ilegal de félidos. https://t.co/81OrKQGi9S
POST-DOC ALERT: We seek a postdoctoral associate with experience in electrophysiology to lead an NSF-funded project examining how isolated turtle neurons regulate membrane currents during anoxia. If interested, either DM or visit https://t.co/V0L2WLzCtE
😢 Cámaras trampa documentaron a un oso negro americano que caminó durante horas intentando cruzar el muro fronterizo entre México y Estados Unidos. Sin embargo, no lo logró. Un estudio analizó la situación. https://t.co/a5swFbxBol
Free scientific illustrations for biologists! 😍
@NIH has released a library of 500+ free scientific illustrations to create figures, presentations, and illustrations!
all freely available in the public domain.

😢 News like these are deeply saddening and worrying for the future of science. The value of museum collections must be understood, particularly in such a rapid changing world!
Not good. Museum collections & research are essential to understanding both the history and future of life on Earth.
