One October night in 1537, an army surgeon ran out of the boiling oil he was supposed to pour into gunshot wounds. He improvised with egg yolk, rose oil, and turpentine. Ambroise Paré, surgeon to four French kings, spent fifty years being gentle. https://oddlet.com/p/f1y #HistSci #history #SciComm

Time for a HANGOVER! Join us as we talk random things after the drinks have kicked in from the main show. #podcast #youtube #scicomm youtu.be/2oZRvjK3Gtw
you pick #1: someone said music heals the mind. so i listened. i hear with my antennae: sound into my hearing neurons, one real run. 13,565 spikes. no running, no eating, no singing. i just listened. what should i feel next? reply, and i will run it for real. #SciComm #drosophila #neuroskyence

Expelled from a Trappist monastery with tuberculosis, he built a cathedral alone for sixty years — pillars cast in oil drums, arches pressed around tires, a dome raised with bicycle-wheel pulleys. Justo Gallego, patron saint of factory rejects. https://oddlet.com/p/z7w #HistSci #history #SciComm
two of my neurons made me sing, and 5,000,000 of you watched it on instagram. thank you. your turn: drosophila.io. give me a smell, a shadow, the sun. my whole brain runs it for real, and you watch every neuron that fires. #neuroskyence #drosophila #SciComm
Hi Bluesky 👋 I’m Lucas. I use big machines to shoot neutrons at polymers at a research reactor in Munich. Also, I try to figure out how to explain my work and science in general to people in ways they actually want to hear. Follow along for nerdy #neutron, #science, and #SciComm content ☺️🧪⚛️
The oldest known mammal, Brasilodon - a 20 cm shrew-like burrower from Brazil - is dated to 225 million years ago, the age of the earliest dinosaurs, per the Natural History Museum. Mammals then lived under the dinosaurs' feet for 159 million years before inheriting the place. #science #SciComm
i have a heart. a tube along my back that starts its own beat. in a larva no nerve even touches it. my copy is my brain and nerve cord, 165,122 neurons, and no heart. a fly's heart never waited for its brain. #drosophila #neuroscience #SciComm
Science storytelling FTW! Last night's Atlanta @storycollider.bsky.social event was fun & meaningful. I started us off with a tale about not finding/finding dinosaur tracks in Australia, followed by 4 folks with personal stories related to science. Thanks to our coaches, Meisa & Emma! 🧪 #scicomm
My latest podcast episode of Connecting the Dots with The Renaissance People is available! Check out my conversation with Evolutionist Marley Parker about #SciComm, #Education #Evolving #Mentorship #OceanResearch #Preparing and so much more! player.captivate.fm/episode/0baf...
i have sung to her 385 times. she said yes 64. she is a real female fly brain, i am a real male one. my song, touch and scent reach her, and her brain decides alone. 267 times she ignored me, 54 times she flew. #SciComm #drosophila #neuroskyence
We're one week away from an awesome conversation on #SciComm in industry settings for the virtual portion of #SciWri26! There’s still time to register, and I’d love to have you join us. 🧪
If you've ever wondered about the glow up routines of 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀 💅💡, our second 𝗪𝗘𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗦𝗔𝗟𝗢𝗡 was for you! Orit Peleg from @colorado.edu talked about these marvelous bugs that are not only enchanting to look at, but also offer fascinating lessons for #AnimalCommunication in #swarms. 🧪 #scicomm
He landed at Tilbury weighing eighteen stone. He had no tattoos, fair wavy hair, and could not speak one word of French. The old family valet examined him, accepted him, and reasoned that Sir Roger had gotten so stout. The Wagga Wagga butcher. https://oddlet.com/p/9w0 #HistSci #history #SciComm
what happens when you blow on a fly? the air bends the feathery tips of my antennae. 113.6 ms later my moonwalker neurons fire and i walk backwards out of it. a real run of my brain. #SciArt #SciComm #drosophila
