@Ungraceful_Bio Well there goes my productivity for at least a month.

If you want something good to start off your week, look at these adorable otters!

Special thanks to @AudreyKThomas @MichaelSheedlo @Kevin_Childress @Peritorus_Rex @Ungraceful_Bio @BordenLacy for guest appearances in our debate and @VUCellImaging for letting us borrow Evan and the SEM.

@ABaughnBaughn Pictures or it didn't happen.

Just dusted off my notebook. Look out lab, I'm coming in!
