Personal, People, Interviews, and Quotes
Quote of the Day - “It’s a 2-way street: we need a more diverse pool of medical illustrators, more diversity in the medical illustrations we create.” Hillary Wilson parlayed her interest in art & science & her insights as a Black American woman into her medical illustrator career
Quote of the Day - “Welfare is important because animals have moral value, and we have responsibilities to them. But it’s also important for good quality science.” Animal scientist Chloe Stevens: giving fish gravel or plastic tubes in tanks allows cognitive abilities development.
Quote of the Day - “It’s like a living thing moving through the valley now, while the old,straightened river was just like a sad canal.” - Ecologist Lee Schofield led a project to ‘rewiggle’ a UK stream by recreating its natural meandering shape — which restored the gravel beds.
Quote of the Day - “I often have a nightmare with my tombstone that reads: ‘What did she think she was doing?’ We have to reckon the future will look back with new tools and a new framing.”Neurologist @HelenMaybergMD hopes that deep brain stimulation will eventually be outdated.
"There is no truth to the rumor that @TuckerCarlson is going to be named dean of the journalism school. If only we could be so lucky! With the right sized gift, we will gladly name the school after him!" - @ass_deans
“I love the power of students to ask questions and not accept the status quo.” - @fowler_lara
"And all the air is filled with pleasant noise of waters." - William Wordsworth, "Resolution and Independence"
