This puzzle was made with a black and white checkerboard pattern…tomorrow we’ll see if the team who sees like humans or the team who can see like an octopus (with polarized glasses) can put it together first! Funded by @MBLScience Alumni ROCS

Do you like Squid Facts? 🔲Yes 🔲No @invertebabe designed valentines to infuse some science into your celebrations! The back of each card has a fact about the species, and of course the classic to: & from: space. Get 'em here https://t.co/cgoGNThZZU Supports @SkypeScientist!

A cuttlefish according to adobe AI. I hope to one day find a sea creature that looks like the bottom left guy.

Have you ever wondered what the brain of a cuttlefish looks like on a cellular level? Come check out our poster at WW68 this afternoon during the Single Cell session PSTR442 #SfN23 (📸 Stephan Junek)

How it started vs how it’s going… @ershook We unfortunately didn’t take any pictures @SfNtweets, but it’s been a blast climbing and conferencing Can we establish a better way to connect neuroscientists who climb? Messaging people you’ve never met normally doesn’t go this well

Octopuses (yes that’s the plural) are amazing. This one is tiny. Unlike humans, their brains GROW continually across the lifespan. Thank you @uoregon & @cris_niell for the tour of the amazing Neuroscience happening here. I’ve always loved UofO & Eugene.

An at home sci project that will be a hit at the outreach event titled Generations of cephalopod scientists, funded by @MBLScience alumni ROCS🐙🦑🧠👁️ The altered monitors will demonstrate how we as humans cannot see polarization, but cephalopods and many other inverts can!

We just published a primer on cephalopod learning and memory in @CurrentBiology 🦑🧠🐙 unravelling the mysteries of how these critters navigate the seas of knowledge. Dive into the depths of cephalopod cognition with me @ChristelleJozet @nickyclayton22

Curious about cephalopod vision? Check out our review led by Judit Pungor @traceofpink on visual processing and behavior in cephalopods @CurrentBiology. We know relatively little at the level of neural function, so there's still a lot of mysteries! https://t.co/XNsQqnjp0r

Things people learned at the Sea Legs event: Octopuses are colorblind They can have split arms Their brain is shaped like a doughnut The Pygmy squid is the smaller ceph. Cephalopods are invertebrates Cephalopod means head-foot Octos exfoliate Octos have more neurons than a dog

2024 Alexander Allen of @BVWestBoysBball has been big time in the first half, hitting threes, rebounding it, and had a beautiful move into a pull up Versatile Wing prospect
