Such a cool one!
I wrote/interviewed folx shortly after everything started to crumble in Jan, but I was re-reminded that communities prevail. There are amazing people doing beautiful things to improve our communities, and I’m excited to highlight their work. berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2025...

To know how animals behave in the wild, you have to observe them in the wild. It's a challenge to step outside the lab and do animal research in realistic habitats, but this is the hard science that's done at UCB's Field Station berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2024...
