Priya is a star! And nimish is one in the making;) This paper is special because it's a nice work coming out of nimish's undergrad thesis. Part of this was also done during the pandemic...with several discussions over zoom!!
Our paper exploring ants, arachnids, and mimicry is out! Collaboration with @DivsBu and Nimish. @azimpremjiuniv academic.oup.com/beheco/adva…

Caught up with @sravUpp to talk about a special textbook she co-created. Also featuring @shramdas @Antara_DasKumar & Beena DB who chime in with their own takes on where textbooks fit in in 21st century biology education. azimpremjiuniversity.edu.in/… #ScicommAPU

Also thanks @SpidersATSea John for sharing such beautiful ant mimic picture!!
Very interesting work from @DivsBu & Nimish on morphological and behavioral mimicry in ant-mimicking spiders. What does it take for a spider to mimic an ant? @BioTicks @venadavenu

Be mesmerized by green #hydra found by students @BioTicks near the @azimpremjiuniv campus. Nearby ponds have so much life, can't imagine how van Leeuwenhoek felt the first time he spotted 'animalcules'
