We’re deeply saddened to learn Frank Stahl has passed. With Matt Meselson, he helped prove how DNA replicates—what many call “the most beautiful experiment” in biology. We had the honor of capturing their story in this short film: bit.ly/meselsonstahlfilm RIP Frank. Thank you.

AP Bio determined why okapi at the zoo are not breeding by analyzing their urine cortisol levels, examining their zoo enclosure, modeling the HPA-axis, & redesigned their enclosure to reduce their stress & encourage breeding. Based on @BeccaCalisi research & a @scicommlab film
