Mary likes the lovely images at the Kahi Kai site, so maybe we’ll see more marine invertebrates appearing here.

Those of you who’ve been to a poster session at a science meeting know that they’re noisy and chaotic and entirely reliant on interaction to work…so I’m not even going to try and describe it. Instead, I strong-armed Eric Röttinger into describing his poster on video for me, and here it is. He’s describing his work on Kahikai, an online database for collecting information about the development of marine invertebrates.
I’m on a small island in the middle of a great big ocean full of exotic and beautiful invertebrates. It feels good.
I’m going to Hawaii next week, while snow is still on the ground here in Morris, so I have to think tropical.
(If you’re wondering, I’ll be attending and speaking at the West Coast Regional Meeting of the Society for Developmental Biology.)

Earlier, I posted a photo of a saguaro — Rob Bartlett had to one-up me by sending me this photo of a saguaro+.
