  1. Mnemonic

    I wrote a letter today and used the word "Mnemonic" four times. Every single time I spelled it wrong, so I wrote this little mnemonic to remember it "Many Nematodes Eat Mushy Organic Noodles In Cafes." Which would be great if only I could remember how to spell nematoads.

  6. Scientists uncover #beetle transport system for newly identified towering nematodes phys.org/news/2026-05-scientis paper: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10

    "In 2025, #Konstanz scientists looked very closely at rotting fruit in local orchards, and observed what no one had before–hundreds of #worms twisting skyward into self-assembled living towers... #nematodes may be trying to hitchhike on #animals to reach new habitats... Now, they identified the carriers of the original worm towers: two sap-feeding #beetles"

While reduced collagen expression helps worms evade fungal traps, it also weakens their protective cuticle, highlighting an evolutionary trade-off"
