Are you a herpetologist? Do you like participating in REALLY important research? Take this survey from Lameace_Hussain (لميس حسين) to help with some really important work!! #jmih23 #herpetology

Come see Phillips Lab @ USM at Mississippi Aquarium today for #SharkWeek ! #sawfish #aquarium #outreach

We need to have a wake up call to researchers at #jmih23 - if you use specimens from #naturalhistorycollections and don’t site: Collection name and Collection Manager and/or Curator it discards the immense amount of work we put into helping you. We notice. :)

YES!!!! Please recognize the museums and people helping!!!

All #Sawfish are Critically Endangered/Endangered & listed on #CITES Appendix I. PhD student Annmarie Fearing (she/her) is collecting tissues from old sawfish saws from #museums & private collections, with support from numerous collaborators around the world. #RhinoRay #SharkAwarenessDay

Our #genetic research on Largetooth #Sawfish highlights the importance of securing populations in the E Pac/Atlantic to conserve this genetically distinct lineage. Through local collaborators, we are supporting #eDNA surveys for this elusive species in these regions. #RhinoRay

Looking for a needle in a haystack requires the most advanced technology available, so we designed a novel #ddPCR #eDNA assay for Largetooth #Sawfish . What makes this different to qPCR or metabarcoding approaches? ddPCR can detect just 1 copy of target DNA in a water sample!

Come see us at the Mississippi Aquarium this weekend for #SharkWeek ! Together with USM Shark Research we will have fun activities for all ages to learn about #sharks , rays, & #sawfish !

🦟Happy to announce that I'm going to be recruiting a new student (M.S., Ph.D.) starting Jan. 2024 for a funded project in the Pacific.
Applicants will need experience in mosquito taxonomy and ecology and have experience and interest in stakeholder outreach. Send CV to my email.

Could you get a nice genome assembly from a sample left out at room temp. for 1.5 months?
Yes!
🐠🩸 stored in 95% EtOH at 22°C for 6 weeks yielded 14 Mb N50 & 97% BUSCO from 34X coverage Oxford Nanopore sequencing [with short fragment eliminator (SFE) kit].
