Great #MarchMadness take @MBL… I’m betting on the hummingbird bobtail squid (Euprymna berryi) for the win!! I’m biased because it’s the one with #venom! 🦑 #MBLMarchMadness @grcvenom.
The MBL is committed to expanding the range of organisms used as biological models and create the next generation of genetically tractable research organisms. The four contests in the #MBLMarchMadness New Research Organisms Division represent some of these biological models.
