It takes some effort and discipline but we can get it done.
I lived in London for nearly 14 years. Many of my friends and former colleagues live there. It makes me happy that there have been no COVID deaths in London today. It also makes me hopeful that with public health and vaccinations we can achieve a “no COVID deaths day” here too.

Ever heard of the skink? It's a type of lizard, found in the rainforest of Southeast Asia, that has fascinated scientists — including researchers from Clark — for how it breaks an old law of biology. Can you guess what that is based on this video? #Skink #EvolutionaryBiology
