New research uncovers the massive squid diet of Hawaiian pilot whales
Hawaiian short-finned pilot whales are surprisingly voracious hunters, diving hundreds of meters beneath the Pacific to snatch squid in the dark. By tagging and tracking eight whales, researchers…

It's that time of year! The time when deer guts start to undergo a magical transformation!
(Also the time of year many well-intentioned people accidentally mess the whole thing up, leading to dead deer!)

It's a rough week for galaxy formation and cosmology: Prof. Avishai Dekel (Hebrew University of Jerusalem) passed away today. He was a leading scientist — some would say a force of nature — who was doing cutting-edge science right up to the end: he had a new paper on the arXiv last week. 🧪

From Feedback-Free Star Clusters to Little Red Dots via Compaction
We address the origin of the Little Red Dots (LRDs) seen by JWST at cosmic morning ($z \!=\! 4 \!-\! 8$) as compact stellar systems with over-massive black holes (BHs). We propose that LRDs form natur...

I am very saddened to hear that Prof. Joel Primack (UCSC) passed away today. He was a huge figure in the field of galaxy formation & was a mentor to many of today’s leading practitioners. His work — often with Faber & Blumenthal — helped establish the now-standard cold dark matter model of cosmology

I’m shocked by the lack of condemnation of *that* BBC doc by the #PopGenetics community; if there was ever a need for #SciComm, it’s now, paper or not. No one will read it; everyone has read/watched the coverage. Unless y’all have muted me and are blind to my enteritis, which is almost certain 🧪 🌱🐋

🧪 Chemotherapy has long been a cornerstone of cancer treatment, but its effectiveness comes at a cost.
To address this, A&S chemists are testing a novel method of using sound waves to activate chemotherapy drugs precisely where they're needed while sparing healthy cells.

Sharks and skates interact with pool toys,
perhaps reflecting their cognitive needs for enrichment.
This may hint at deeper intelligence.
Interaction with enrichment objects depends on color and increases after feeding in some elasmobranchs but not others 🏺🧪
