Energy conversion efficiency peaks at intermediate flight speed in a migratory songbird Using in vivo measurements of thrush nightingales flying in a wind tunnel, Macias-Torres et al. show that energy conversion efficiency varies with airspeed following a concave function, with a maximum...

After a lot of time spent in the darkness of the wind tunnel, the results finally see the light.
I'm very excited to share what will become the first chapter of my thesis.

We've seen videos like this before, but usually when you see a tearful wife pleading with the kidnappers who have taken her husband, she's not talking to the U.S. president

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.

Le Monde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to US after a search of his phone & computer revealed messages critical of Trump's science cuts, "which [says CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism".

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people.

Be strong, be brave, be fearless.
You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy.

We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Zelenskyy is one of the world’s greatest heroes and leaders. — That’s eating Trump und Vance alive.

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

For three years, the people of Ukraine have fought with extraordinary courage in the face of Russia’s brutal and unjustified invasion.

They alone have the right to determine what is best for their long-term security.

Canada stands with Ukraine. Slava Ukraini!

My first first-author paper was published this morning! Did you know eye lenses grow in layers throughout life and can be analyzed to study movement and foraging ecology. But eye lenses differ in bio molecular composition across fish taxa, especially for sharks! 🧪🌎🦑
