[Andino Lab - UCSF @AndinoUcsf]

Andino lab is hiring! Two postdoctoral positions are available. We are curious about RNA viruses: pathogenesis, evolution, and antiviral defense. Experience in working with microbes 🦠, bioinformatics (proteomics and/or high-throughput sequencing) is preferred. Pls retweet! 😊

Dogs are humanity's best friend—but how long has it been that way? 🐕

This Science study investigates ancient dog genomes, revealing a complicated genetic legacy that reflects a long, shared history with humans. Learn more on #DNADay: https://t.co/KehXgNY7cy

Vampire bats are the only mammals that feed exclusively on blood—and scientists may have identified the gene losses responsible for this unique evolution. https://t.co/u6I4z16zc0

O IB-UNESP-Rio Claro contratará docentes que atuam em Ecologia. São duas vagas permanentes. A área do concurso de uma é “Ecologia Aplicada”, da outra é “Ecologia de Ecossistemas”. Estou à disposição para conversar sobre o trabalho e a vida aqui. Links abaixo. Por favor divulguem.

Stellar emergence this evening at the UF bat houses. Hundreds of thousands of Mexican free-tailed bats emerge together to forage and make quite the spectacle!

A importância da vigilância de patógenos em animais silvestres foi refletida nessa pandemia da COVID-19. E nosso trabalho com o projeto PREVIR sendo divulgado com o devido reconhecimento reflete essa importância.

New mosquito-borne alphavirus found in Brazil, basal to the VEEV complex and looks like an emerging arbo, and not vectored by the usual suspects - SUPER interesting

@Grev16 Great Lucas! 💜🦇

@BarbierEder Uau!

[Give Bats A Break @GiveBatsABreak]

It’s no secret at this point that vampire bats - esp. the females - take REALLY good care of each other

It appears these bonds created in the roost extend out to the raid: when one bat finds blood, she calls to others so they can benefit too!

FASCINATING video received on whatsapp capturing apparently vampire bats live feeding on night critters. See the one hopping behind the piglet 😁

Animals don't just FLAP, each has their own pattern. Being an artist is all about observing the fine details of things... #animtip
