🧵1/15 Delighted to share our study on the naked mole-rat (NMR): a mammal with bizarre thermal biology, notorious longevity, and cancer resistance. But how do NMRs maintain (or fail to maintain) their body temperature? Our latest work digs deep! #ThermalBiology #Thermogenesis

Ontogeny of the Heat‐Induced Hatching Response in the Red‐Eyed Treefrog, Agalychnis callidryas
In ectothermic vertebrates, temperature impacts the rate and success of embryonic development, and in some species, embryos show adaptive behavioral responses to thermal conditions. The arboreal embr...

Thermoregulation may shape where Calopteryx damselflies live and thrive! C. virgo warms up faster and maintains higher body temps, possibly explaining its broader range and habitat preferences. #ecology #entomology #thermalbiology
