It may not look like much, but the light coloring on this little piece of filter paper is around 2 billion marine bacteria. While I've been out sailing along Line P, I'm trapping bacteria on these slips of paper by pumping water through the tiny little holes in the paper that are smaller than the bacteria but large enough for water to slip through. Once I get these to the lab, I can pop the bacteria open to collect their DNA and see who lives in the water and what they can do.

American educator and zoologist Cornelia Clapp died #OTD in 1934.

Clapp was a pioneering zoology researcher and leading ichthyology scholar. Her work on the toadfish was instrumental in correcting the idea that its egg was attached by a "sucker" to the yolk stalk, as she discovered that it was instead adhered with a disc of "transparent secretion" that could be separated from the membrane.

A photograph of Cornelia Clapp (right) with students working in a zoology laboratory in Williston Hall at Mount Holyoke College in 1890. The photograph of Cornelia Clapp and her students in the zoology laboratory at Williston Hall, Mount Holyoke College, in 1890, captures a moment of academic focus and collaboration. She wears a long, dark dress with a high neckline and her hair is styled neatly, reflecting the academic professionalism of the period. The laboratory setting features wooden tables cluttered with scientific instruments, glass jars, and preserved specimens, creating an atmosphere of scientific inquiry. Students, mostly young women dressed in modest Victorian attire, are engaged in various activities—examining specimens, writing notes, or using microscopes.

Day 5 #ArtAdventCalendar: What’s inside this cigar box? A black smoker - with giant tube worms (Riftia pachyptila) for #InsertAnInvert2024. I’ve had the idea for this #multimedia in my head for years! Cigar box, collaged papers, gouache, Posca pen, glue, washi tape.

I’ve never had the opportunity to go on a research cruise to a hydrothermal vent, though I have contributed to plans for monitoring 🧵

Three shots of a multimedia artwork: Cigar box, collaged papers, gouache, Posca pen, glue, washi tape. At the top is a shot of the inside of the box with open door. The inside is lined with dark blue washi with edges in gold. There’s cut paper artwork if a black smoker on watercolour paper painted in gouache with smoke from painted Japanese tissue. In front are several clumps of giant tube worms.
