It was great to have @SDBiju1 with us at @KUFOS1 Thank you for inspiring me and hundreds of other taxonomists of my generation and beyond! I always tell him about two phases of animal taxonomy in India : BB (Before Biju) & AB (After Biju) 🐸 🐠 #taxonomy #science #inspiration

#Watch | A Kerala State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) driver bid an emotional farewell to his bus after completing his final trip ahead of retirement. Paul Kurian, a driver attached to the KSRTC Kumily depot in Idukki, completed his last duty on September 2. After parking the bus at the end of his shift, he kissed the steering wheel and saluted the vehicle before walking away. The video, shared by KSRTC officials, has drawn widespread attention, with many appreciating his dedication to the profession. Video: Special arrangement thehindu.com/news/national/k…

High point of my recent 🇯🇵 trip was the stunning Churaumi Aquarium in Okinawa. The massive 35x27x10 m Kuroshio Sea Tank will leave you breathless for its sheer size and the giants that swim in them - from a whale shark to giant manta rays. And lots of cool shark/ray research too

We middle-class, first gen. academics who do not study in elite institutions miss out on popular science lit. that could have opened our 👀 to a whole new 🌍 early on! But reading gems like this one in my 20s would have given me different take aways, so maybe it’s a good thing.
