Hi, we're Zoonomia! Our first paper is out #openaccess and we're celebrating by giving credit where credit is due, showcasing some of the amazing mammals we've been studying! https://t.co/Q8wKYtxqlh

Mammals & genomics. Diane Genereux and I distill it to (comparative) essentials in @broadinstitute public lecture “Clarity from comparison: How other animals' genomes illuminate our own.” Sadly, few @ZoonomiaProject species survived the #2021MMM #carnage https://t.co/1UsHGHBxAM

Find out about our science today! Public lecture @broadinstitute on how we’re using mammalIan diversity to understand how genomes work.

[Broad Institute @broadinstitute]

TOMORROW! Join us for a virtual Science for All Seasons talk from 5 - 6 pm EST. @eenork and Diane Genereux will present “Clarity from comparison: How other animals' genomes illuminate our own.” Learn more and register at: https://t.co/ka0Cj8H8sd. #BroadSFAS

Diane Genereux and I are talking #mammal #genomics (@ZoonomiaProject) @broadinstitute next week! Public lecture, open to all. @scribbler_tom now has me pondering what cool mammal trait I’d want to have. Echolocation? Hibernation? Ability to survive deep ocean dives?

[Tom Ulrich @scribbler_tom]

What do other species' feats of physiology (think squirrels' ability to hibernate for MONTHS) have to do with human biology? Find out when I host @zoonomia scientists @eenork & Diane Genereux for our next #ScienceForAllSeasons.

Unfortunately, and despite CDC precautions, the western lowland gorilla troup at the @sdzsafaripark has tested positive for SARS-CoV-2. https://t.co/4qen7LRW0x

The bumblebee #bat, aka Kitti's hog-nosed bat, is the tiniest bat... no, tiniest #MAMMAL, on earth! By length, that is. https://t.co/roTupJ2Z7r

[ZoonomiaProject @ZoonomiaProject]

First up, the western spotted skunk. Spilogale gracilis isn't a true hibernator (sorry @faunabio), but it's got a great strategy for avoiding the winter blues: snoozing for several weeks! We just may try that when the weather gets unbearable this year... https://t.co/gLchHkpoKD

Gambian pouched #rats have a keen sense of #smell. One, named Magawa, won the @PDSA_HQ Gold Medal 2020 for detecting landmines in Cambodia. This @HeroRATs has found 39 landmines and 28 unexploded munitions so far! https://t.co/UQ5KVtusNP

Brown-throated sloth (Bradypus variegatus), like all sloths, moves veeerrry slooowwwwly, snacking on rubbery rainforest leaves w few calories & filled w toxins. Are they poisoned? NO! Their digestive system is built to handle these indigestible leaves. https://t.co/a44mBaJCMs
