Normally, when a bat is in your room, it's not a great thing. But this team has gone to great lengths to make this moment happen, and we're excited with them!

How do we reintegrate biology? We brainstormed at the 2019 NSF workshop in San Diego and we propose a new way to study biological systems. @UBDVTLab @DrDanosNicole @streamyinphan doi.org/10.1093/icb/icab114
