Had an amazing time at this year's @presidiosf Planting Day! We successfully planted around 2,000 plants including many types of bunch grasses and forbs, which are flowering plants that lack woody stems. #consbioUSFCA #conservation #presidio

Did you know? To protect newly planted native plants, it’s important to clean the bottom of your shoes. This prevents accidental spreading of invasive species! #presidio #consbioUSFCA #plantbiodiversity

Since its construction in the 1930s, the Hoover Dam has been instrumental in providing water to over 25 million people and enabling agriculture in dry regions of the southwest U.S. Now the reservoir is visibly drying up— endangering both drinking water and power. #consbioUSFCA

For #PresidioPlantingDay we planted ~2,000 native plant species! So great to be a part of such a fun and impactful event! @presidiosf #presidio #ConsBioUSFCA #biodiversity

Just a poll. What would you want to get if you visited your professor for office hours? Other than a better understanding of the material of course!

Students: what type of snack would you want? Or maybe stickers?

[Dr. Monica Cox @DrMonicaCox]

I want to buy snacks for students who visit my office. What should I purchase?

I spy with my little eye… Hummingbird nests can be as small as 1.5 inches and are built to easily blend into a range of environments. These birds are habitat generalists found all over San Francisco— would you be able to spot this nest hidden right on campus? 👀🪺 #consbioUSFCA

This is so cool! Homeostasis is essential for survival. Sometimes diseases make it harder for our bodies to maintain homeostasis and need a bit of help.

Scientists have developed tattoos that change color in response to glucose, albumin, and pH levels. The new tech could let people with diabetes or kidney disease track and control their health without having to take frequent blood samples. https://t.co/WTuwxRWudm
