This week, the Interactome team is joined by Dr. Alex Champagne, Associate Professor of Biology at  University of Southern Indiana! The team talks all things bird physiology — the age old question of flight evolution, interesting anatomical structures, and Dr. Champagne’s current work (which just got published, by the way)!After listening to the episode, read about how skin lipids in desert bats suggest wing and tail membranes are important to evaporation cooling! https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1095643324000473Links:Our Website: https://interactomemedia.wixsite.com/websiteTwitter: https://twitter.com/theinteractome Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/interactome_media/Mastodon: @[email protected]Credits:Audio/Video Editing: Sam PickellArtwork: Maia ReyesTranscript: Margaret DownsIntro/Outro Music: Geovane Bruno - Dancing In The FutureTimestamps:
