Let's start this #womenhistorymonth with A. M. Alexander. ⛺️Born in 1867 in Honolulu, explorer and #palaeontologist Founded the UC Museum of Paleo and the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology (MVZ) 👭Shared her life and passion with another woman, Louise Kellog #WomensDay2022

English is not the 1st language of most scientists but ~98% of scientific articles are published in English. How can we build a more multilingual academy & why should we? Read more in our new preprint: ecoevorxiv.org/m7wfy/ #LanguageMatters #MultilingualScience #SciComm 1/15

Having a universal language in science does have its benefits: a common method of communication helps scientists connect and communicate globally. 2/15

But maintaining a single language also has its costs, particularly through the exclusion of many people who must become proficient in English. Have you or your collaborators faced linguistic barriers? 3/15

New preprint, led by an Museum of Vertebrate Zoology (MVZ) working group. This was really fun work and an opportunity to collaborate across disciplines to learn more about translation studies and tools. Check it out!

We were excited to welcome Dr. Bryan H. Juarez (He/They) to the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology (MVZ) for #herpgroup seminar last night. He touched on one of his recent publications benchmarking the use of morphological measurements to approximate jumping function in frogs. Great use of museum specimens! link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Celebrating #Grinnell and the Natural History of the Vertebrates course at the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology (MVZ) 👇🏽 "Ahead of his time: Joseph Grinnell, natural history, and inclusion and equity in STEM" by David O. Ribble revistas-conacyt.unam.mx/therya/index.p… 🐀🦎🦜🐸 image by Monica Jurik 👇🏽

We are all deeply saddened to report that Grinnell was found dead in downtown Berkeley this afternoon. We are devastated and heartbroken. His cause of death isn't known, but he was probably struck by a car given where we found him.

Founder of AmphibiaWeb David Wake was celebrated May 7th at the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology (MVZ). Attendees came from all over the world to celebrate David's work, impact on others, and his generosity of spirit he afforded every one he met. wakelab.berkeley.edu/tributes amphibiaweb.org

Awesome ⁦Museum of Vertebrate Zoology (MVZ)⁩ and ⁦UC Berkeley⁩ presence at #JMIH2022!

9/10: We thank Field Museum for access to the tinamou egg specimens (amazing collection). Julia Clarke Graham Coop Darren Irwin dbachtrog & friends UBC Zoology Integrative Biology UC Berkeley IB Museum of Vertebrate Zoology (MVZ) California Academy of Sciences for helpful discussions.

Excited to share an awesome project I was part of as an undergrad at the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology (MVZ) (and my #firstpaper!) Thanks to Nick Mason and @eco_physiology for being great mentors through the whole process.

We thank the staff of the Beaty Biodiversity Museum 🐳, KU Natural History Museum, Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture, Florida Museum, Museum of Comparative Zoology, Museum of Vertebrate Zoology (MVZ), Natural History Museum of L.A. County, @slatermuseumUPS, and Smithsonian NMNH for letting us use their specimens #museumsareessential 7/x
