Tourette’s used to make Jack swear, now he yells out shapes and colours. Many succeed in reframing Tourette’s as just one part of who they are. What’s it like to live with this disorder?https://t.co/FVJvkt3YJp

We can't get enough of slime moulds! Been having lots of fun working with @rebecca_le_get and the team to process 3000 of these little specimens and watching them come alive under the microscope! #slimemould

[RBG Victoria @RBG_Victoria]

While they may not look like much at first glance, slime moulds come alive under the microscope, revealing intricate features and dazzling colours.

What do these slime moulds look like to you?
