👀 How do we study ? You're watching the cryosectioning of a liver biopsy containing metastatic colon tumor. The staining allows for the visualization of cellular abnormalities & tissue architecture > instagram.com/p/CxCtG4-Mpg4/

Thanks to Ilaria Mulas from our Computational Biology Research Centre!

Nearly 85% of bee species live in the ground, but little is known about how they construct and modify their nests. CT scans, however, could “really give a lot of insight into what’s happening.” More from Science.com: flip.it/RpUzTC

Unbelievably, the whales evolved from land based animals like modern mouse deers!

Weakly electric fish perceive their surroundings through electric chirrups and now Ana Camargo & co have revealed that light fine-tunes the fish's electric pulses to ensure that they remain secluded beneath the mats of vegetation under which they shelter and avoid penetrating beams of light that could give them away

Petite vidéo dans laquelle on voit bien cette fourmi utiliser ses antennes pour checker ce qu'elle fait. :)

Have to say, the rights people that are so far afield from actual wildlife , that they advocate and suggest a means of eliminating from the cycle are...scarily similar to the eugenicists of the turn of the 20th century, that evolved into the fascists of the early 20th century... what with genetically modifying animals to control populations to the point of extinction...these people are absolutely bonkers....

Snakes are known for gulping down truly gargantuan meals. But the Gans’ egg-eater outpaces them all, relative to the size of its body. Live Science tells us about how the nonvenomous African snake cand swallow spherical bird eggs whole: flip.it/XIa3dK

"A genomics analysis of more than 3,000 living people suggested that our ancestors’ total population plummeted to about 1,280 breeding individuals for about 117,000 years. Scientists believe that an extreme climate event could have led to the bottleneck that came close to wiping out our ancestral line." theguardian.com/science/2023/a @science

Maybe the problem we face is we just refine old tools and don't create anything new

my first week in ☀️ i'm sure the weather won't stay like this, but it's been lovely being able to get out and explore, and more importantly see some of the wildlife!

1. venus fly traps in the winter gardens @ duthie park
2. my old pals the seals at newburgh beach
3. my first peacock (aglais io) butterfly in the wild @ stonehaven!
4. showing my family around the zoology museum at uni
