A throwback for World Walrus Day - this limited edition walrus #linocut. Rapid climate change and loss of sea ice in the arctic is a challenge for these extraordinary mammals.

Some bats eat a ton of sugar and have no health woes. Are there lessons for diabetes? Bats are able to consume an extraordinary amount of sugar with no ill effects. Scientists are trying to learn more about how bats do it — and whether humans can learn from their sugar response.

Want more bat content? Check out this recent NPR feature with Hanna Gray Fellow Jasmin Camacho, who studies wild bats using cutting-edge metabolomics to identify and map the mechanisms that protect against the damaging effects of sugar consumption: www.npr.org/sections/goa...

When a President calls for the death of lawmakers protecting the oath military members take to the Constitution (NOT the President), you are watching a full-blown Constitutional Crisis. This is the ultimate test of our democracy. We cannot look away.

Epstein-Barr virus reprograms autoreactive B cells as antigen-presenting cells in systemic lupus erythematosus Epstein-Barr virus reprograms autoreactive B cells as antigen-presenting cells to promote pathogenic antinuclear T and B cell responses in lupus.

A new study provides evidence of a biological mechanism for how Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) may trigger lupus.

EBV seems to reprogram B-cells at the beginning of a cascade that ultimately results in autoimmunity.

The authors mention that EBV is a cause of MS, and may be related to LongCOVID.

Liberal Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor on Tuesday warned that the poor quality of civics education means Americans may not know the difference between a president and a king.

Fascinating how the highest heights of the White House jumped on condemning the ICE shooting today but still has not said a word about the CDC shooting. Political violence is an emergency that our nation has to face. Silence from our leaders is complicit. #CDC #publichealth
