Zebrafish bred for #heat tolerance showed no fitness trade-offs — surprisingly, they also coped better with cold. But can wild fish adapt as quickly? #Study in 'Nature Climate Change' offers new insights. DOI: https://t.co/TunLAtMIVw 🧪🐟 🌏

Postdocs do a lot of invisible labor in academia. The majority of which is helping PhD students. Many of us are happy to do it, but when students fail to acknowledge that help, especially in front of the PI, it kinda kills the vibe. Give people credit for their work.
