Good news! Ministers have finally given green light to new #NaturalHistory GCSE. We’ve campaigned so long for this! Big hats off to tireless advocate Mary Colwell 🙌 Now our young people will have a chance to get to know & love the natural world, to feel awe & wonder, & gain skills to protect it 🌷🌳🦡

I hate this myth so fucking much because it started after a study specifically to see if brains developed after 18. So they limited the study to age 25.
And people decided that meant brains develop only until 25 even though a later study with no age limit showed brains NEVER stop developing.

Check out the master's work of @lenagies.bsky.social on unsupervised clustering of animal vocalizations! Also, yes, she has a master's on #greylaggoose and her last name is Gies (pronounced "geese")... #bioacoustics
