Did you need a bouquet of flowers from the American pika? During the late summer, pika will begin to gather mouthfuls of vegetation to build “haystacks” for their winter food supply. Photo by Eivor Kuchta (sharetheexperience)

Our recently published work in @royalsociety was featured on @SpectrumNews1WI! Thanks @PBoudreauxNewsfor a great story featuring @jlotusnguyen's work on how antibiotics disrupt the collective cooling in honey bee colonies in my research lab @MarquetteUin @MU_BISC
The Cook Lab at Marquette University is helping lead the way in the research of what impacts the behavior of honey bees, which are vital pollinators for a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.

As a fun moment to break up the research day, we spent lunch in the beautiful gardens and #prairie on campus @MarquetteU to learn about the #pollinators and other #insects that use the space as food and refuge. Thanks to @ecokatsully @MilwaukeeMuseum for co-organizing with us!

Has anyone done any course-based undergrad research projects that are good enough to publish? I am teaching an electrophysiology-based neuro lab and have flexibility to do a fun project - I'd love your input! #neuroethology #AcademicTwitter #undergradresearch #physiology #neuro

As the weather starts to cool off, it’s time for the wonders of fall foliage. I love that you can see the degradation of chlorophylls in Ginkgo leaves in actions, which swipes each leaf like a wave from the base to the tip.
