Mini post #8: originally this research team integrated a pigment coding protein into the fungi to check that a genetic modification had worked...however this modified fungal strain could also prove very useful in the textile industry... @BerkeleyLab #scicom #blog #FOTD #research

Mini post #7 : snail slime and super glue !
Research from @LehighU

These insects live up to their name: they drink the "blood" of their lymphs and live mostly underground! They also have the fastest moving jaws in the animal kingdom!

Also wondering about the scientific value of the phrase "shark barf" ?.. x) @FieldMuseum @EurekAlert
(appears in same article)

. @FieldMuseum Who is responsible for this press release? I must admit it did make me laugh (even if you are a little late to the babyshark game) @EurekAlert #PressRelease #science #research #BabyShark #sharksareamazing

Want to send your name to Mars? You can with @NASA for the launch of the #Mars2020 #rover !
Your name will be added to a microchip that will be attached to the rover. (I've just added mine ^^)

* Repost of Mini post #2 with better quality ! * A mini-recap of a cool research paper published yesterday in @nature ! We now have a good hunch of when and how Earth's water arrived... Feel free to follow my page :) #FOTD #science #scicom #space #moon #Astronomy #Earth #water

Trying out a new type of post about current research - let me know what you think! Mini Post #1 : from a study published in May 2019 on the effects of marine #plasticpollution on the oxygen-producing bacteria Prochlorococcus #blog #scicom #research #science #FOTD #Recycle

#kakapos are amazing yet, unfortunately, very endangered birds. Endemic to #NewZealand , they are vulnerable to being hunted by pet cats and other animals as they are flightless.
Very happy to see these chicks are doing well <3

The two #kakapo chicks at Suzanne's nest have both fledged. Today Suzanne-2-A decided to roost on a log - not very well covered.... #kakapo2019 #conservation #parrots
