Zoological illustrations from days gone by are fantastic. Cannot. Get. Enough. Of. These. Yes, we are #ScienceGeeks who love #BatArt

Zoological atlases of the 18th and 19th centuries are full of stunning #bat illustrations; scientists were often accomplished graphic artists.

Enjoyed the 'How to Raise Your Fund' session by @yaksi_emre at the @FensKavliNet @FENSorg #leadership Workshop. It was fun sharing my experiences on aligning '#corevalues & #TimeManagement'. Thanks to @cgillebert and @MeitalOren for organizing it. Lovely to meet all the PIs!

Bats are mostly hibernating now but if you're wondering where to do some bat watching when they wake up do check this page for some helpful tips: buff.ly/3ulMq2f . You could have bats right on your doorstep, you just need to know where/when to look buff.ly/3OxuKaH
