A nicely written article, and I agree that museums must reach younger generations. But unfortunately the renovated exhibits at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History mask the fact that the museum has gutted a large part of their research on the natural world over the last few years.

Finally seeing reporting on the toxic work environment going on at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. It's been so sad to see this place fall apart. Let it be a lesson to all scientific and cultural institutions, NEVER put a business person in charge. www.clevescene.com/news/clevela...

I am ✨️RELIEVED✨️ that the issues we faced at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History are finally out in the open. This was THE MOST TOXIC work environment I've ever worked in. I still have PTSD. They need to scrap Sonia Winner and start fresh.

Shrimps is bugs? No, it’s kinda the other way around. Insects are technically crustaceans, which highlights the importance of systematics in understanding how evolution unfolds. My latest for @smithsonianmag.bsky.social.

Recent photos of the Bridger Range of the Rocky Mountains taken from my apartment complex in Bozeman, MT. 💕🏔 Aren't they stunning? The coolest thing is that the peaks are made from ocean 🌊 sediment that's 360-320 million years old! Learn more: serc.carleton.edu/research_edu...
