Hi, we're Zoonomia! Our first paper is out #openaccess and we're celebrating by giving credit where credit is due, showcasing some of the amazing mammals we've been studying! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

To all my twitter followers, please help me out and VOTE for @ZoonomiaProject! We're currently in 3rd place up against NASA. I can use all of your help to make this happen. Please share repost!! 🗳 DO IT: wbby.co/web-sci #Webbys

We’re up for a Webby award! We’d be honored to get your vote today

Can’t wait to hear @ZoonomiaProject’s #5WordSpeech 🤩! They’re in 3rd place, VOTE: wbby.co/web-sci #Webbys I'd be honored if you would give it a vote.

Mammals & genomics. Diane Genereux and I distill it to (comparative) essentials in @broadinstitute public lecture “Clarity from comparison: How other animals' genomes illuminate our own.” Sadly, few @ZoonomiaProject species survived the #2021MMM #carnage youtu.be/YKjYFydrje0

Find out about our science today! Public lecture @broadinstitute on how we’re using mammalIan diversity to understand how genomes work.

Diane Genereux and I are talking #mammal #genomics (@ZoonomiaProject) @broadinstitute next week! Public lecture, open to all. @scribbler_tom now has me pondering what cool mammal trait I’d want to have. Echolocation? Hibernation? Ability to survive deep ocean dives?

What do other species' feats of physiology (think squirrels' ability to hibernate for MONTHS) have to do with human biology? Find out when I host @zoonomia scientists @eenork & Diane Genereux for our next #ScienceForAllSeasons.

Unfortunately, and despite CDC precautions, the western lowland gorilla troup at the @sdzsafaripark has tested positive for SARS-CoV-2. sdzsafaripark.org/update

UPDATE: In following the guidance set forth from the Governor’s Office, we are temporarily closed. We remain committed to providing around-the-clock care for the remarkable wildlife at the Zoo during this time.
