Fascinating parallels between the evolution of biological and military weaponry described by Doug Emlen at #NAS161 !

Great talk by Jennifer Elisseeff about tissue regeneration, inspired by salamander regeneration, at #NAS161. I need some of this!

I am impressed by how many of the speakers of the Research Briefings at #NAS161 were inspired by natural biodiversity, including Lisa Coussens, who talked about her work in cancer biology and treatment.

More inspiration from nature and biodiversity in the Research Briefings at #NAS161 in the talk by Torben Rick on Archaeology and the Future of our Ocean Planet.

Great panel discussing Scientists Under Fire…conspiracy theories, disinformation, and internet attacks. Anthony Fauci, Michael Mann, Peter Hotez, and Akiko Iwasaki at #NAS161.

Beautiful new book by Amy Tan! I am reading it in my backyard and thinking that we need more books that celebrate the biodiversity on our own backyards.

Cybertruck in grazing mode

Cybertruck earning its keep working on the Double Helix Ranch.

My first trip up this road into the Chisos Mountains was 50 years ago in an un-air-conditioned Ford Pinto. The ride has improved a lot since then.

It is warm enough on this late November day at the Double Helix Ranch for this Red-Striped Ribbon Snake to be swimming around, looking for Cricket Frogs.

Congratulations to Adriana Briscoe, Ray Huey, David Queller, and Nick Barton, on their induction to the US National Academy of Sciences in Evolutionary Biology! #NAS162
