Have we mentioned... We have baby #cuttlefish again! We have just started training these two to eat by hand and they are very fast learners! #cuttles #MBAaquarium

The team dechmannlab ⭐️ have done it again👏 They've introduced us to another tiny, furry superhero. Meet the latest cold climate mammal with a yo-yo brain ab.mpg.de/497898/news_pu… #shrewcrew Don't miss Dina sharing fun facts about these amazing brain-shrinking mammals 🧵1/2 🔽

25 m (82 feet) of sea level rise is very likely committed at current CO2 level (sound on)

How brain regions got their names:

Limpet barrens (on block), limpet pits (bio erosion of limestone) and #limpet islands (habitat for algae) all on display on the formidable #Plymouth #Breakwater. Limpets are ecosystem engineers… paper coming out in July 👍
