Please help me get this opportunity in front of as many potential future marine biologists as possible. We have a team standing by to answer their questions but we need questions!
I keep seeing the same questions asked in marine biology career advice groups. So along with some colleagues, I'm trying to compile a bunch of common questions and answer them all at once. Please share widely with anyone who might have questions!

Fun fact: I used to work at an aquarium that offered penguin encounters, and you could tell which guests were rude to staff because sometimes staff “forgot” to warn people not to stand directly behind a penguin.
You guys, we better hope that this tariff war with penguins doesn’t turn into a shooting war, because penguins shit from a long distance and it smells real bad.

Kansas City and its many suburbs expanding out 30+ miles in diameter, are actively doing this. It’s delightful!
I’m not saying that your city could do this. But it certainly should put your city’s culture of action, or lack thereof, into some perspective.
Is your city a city of action, or a city of excuse?

BREAKING & BIG: Today in PARIS, citizens voted in a referendum to PEDESTRIANIZE 500 MORE of the city's streets, giving fresh momentum to efforts by city leaders to create people-places, curb car usage, and improve air quality. 66% of Parisians voted in favour of the measure, official results showed!

My son is doing research at a university that’ll benefit mankind, and so are so many others. We cannot afford to lose their braintrusts and contributions.
As someone who has had a lot of issues with both Columbia and The NY Times editorial pages, this piece, from a former provost at Columbia, is a breath of fresh air. Strong, compelling arguments.

What image should we use for the article? Let’s use their image of them taking the shark out of the water.

Wild that this news article correctly identifies the laws required to catch a protected species, but then doesn’t note that the photos they use in the same article show at least possible violations of those laws.

Take this study with a grain of salt, I spent 35 years in desert weather and look way younger than same age peers around the country. I do happen to have a very low heart rate and a very low normal body temp. I think those have something to do with aging more than heat exposure.
Exposure to heat can alter the way your DNA works, according to a new study. The effects could lead to long-term health outcomes.
