There’s more to blue cheese than just the stench. Virginia Tech researchers discovered a way to synthesize a compound in the mold of blue cheese that has antibacterial and anticancer properties. Congratulations Sydney Johnson and Pablo Sobrado😎👏news.vt.edu/articles/2024/06…

Having larger media coverage doesn't mean that the #whiteshark pup spotted in #California is the first ever filmed in the #wild.
Have a look at this ~1m long (the fisherman said 85cm) pup caught and released in the #Aegean Sea, #Mediterranean in 2012.
