I don't think I've done #PhycologyFriday before - but it seems like the right day, and right hashtag, to admire the University of Zurich's @UZH_en's "Blue Cow".

A nice spot to meet someone, and some algae (and zooplankton) to learn about as you do!

Love the way the student captured Mazzaella’s iridescence.

Pages from “When you give a mouse a #seaweed” – by two super-skilled Biol 320 students.
Spoiler: this mouse likes to eat seaweed.
Beautiful adaptation of the classic book “If you give a mouse a cookie”. 📕

For some wonderful reason, four student groups independently decided to make an #algae Guess Who? game.

This #phycologyfriday I present to you:

✨✨Pedro Pascal as #kelp ✨✨

🧵First up, Pedro as #BullKelp (N. leutkeana). This sp. forms #kelpforests across the NE Pacific & thrives in high energy rocky areas. Its easily spotted by its distinct surface canopy & "mermaids bladder"!

Happy #PhycologyFriday! Received a really cool gift this week. The plate press for a page on freshwater #redalgae from Prescott’s Algae of the western Great Lakes area. Pictured Audouinella, Chroodactylon & Paludicola (based on older name). Lab thinking about inking t-shirts.👚

Happy #PhycologyFriday from the #RedSea

Played “reverse Pictionary” in #algae class today. 🧩
Artist ✍️ draws but doesn’t know the alga, Communicator 🗣️ describes what to draw but can’t use name or taxonomy. Gallery walk w/stickers by @LocalNaturalist as prizes.
A fun #phycologyfriday 🎉👏 @BiologyUBC @ubcscience
