@LakeSuperior and @shedd_aquarium teaming up!

[Act With Shedd @ActWithShedd]

A near perfect day for a beach cleanup! Several volunteers braved the strong winds today and joined us for a Great Lakes Action Day at 63rd Street Beach. In two hours, they collected over 100 lbs of trash, keeping it safely out of our water supply and the bellies of local birds.

[Bill Van Bonn @VanBonn]

Makes me think of work of the award winning @neuroMOOC congratulations by the way Dr. Mason. Well deserved.

[Paula Olsiewski @polsiewski]

Another fine paper from @SloanFoundation grantees, this time on NTM’s in drinking water-congratulations to @LutRaskin @SarahJaneHaig @yunshen87 & colleagues

[Shedd Aquarium @shedd_aquarium]

Exciting news—Shedd has been nominated for the Best Aquarium category for USA Today's @10Best Readers' Choice travel award contest! We'd be delighted if you swam on over to vote for us: https://t.co/epLVQjFHDE

[Shedd Aquarium @shedd_aquarium]

What's it like to rescue Bolivian river dolphins from a shrinking lake? Shedd's #AnimalResponseTeam did just that, joining a rescue effort with @marylandzoo, @stlzoo and more last fall. Read all about the remarkable experience on our blog: https://t.co/248iASNneD

@PatSchloss No soil. Some water.

[Bill Van Bonn @VanBonn]

@PatSchloss I think we can help. Let me know if you'd like to know what datasets we have. All available to you.

[Bill Van Bonn @VanBonn]

Fantastic read that I just finished. Great addition to library.

[Jeff Gravley @JGravleySPORTS]

.@DukeMBB guard Tre Jones was bent double with emotion. Teammates tried to console him and @MSU_Basketball’s Nick Ward and Cassius Winston took time to do the same. Pure class.

Ykkes! ⁦@CrapTaxidermy⁩

Massive potential

Fish slime: An untapped source of potential new #antibiotics

"Fish mucus is interesting because the environment the fish live in is complex. They are in contact with their environment all the time with many pathogens."

Headed back to Providence after almost two months visiting UMich and Field Museum collections and collaborators. I’ll miss Man with Fish most of all 😢

[MSU Veterinary Medicine @msuvets]

From eagles and tigers to elephants and turtles, Dr. James Sikarskie of #msuvets has seen it all. And though he'll be hanging up his stethoscope in fall of 2019, he isn't done with animals, or teaching future veterinary medical professionals, just yet https://t.co/yd34XxFVkC

@SolomonRDavid Indeed. Book is a great read. Looking forward to chapter nine.
