Want to do #bioscience at #Uni? Concerned about #Animalresearch? @FRAMEcharity made this to help students coose the right course. Wish I'd had this kind of nuanced info when doing my #Alevels, but things were a bit different over 3 decades ago... [OVER 3 DECADES AGO. WELP. 🤯]

Jeff Karron and colleagues have put together an excellent video on buzz pollination in Primula (Dodecatheon). Check it out here: youtu.be/fQsnPAWQqcI
