This month’s Tide Bite outlines Adam Summers’ quest to scan every species of fish in the world here at FHL in the new Karel F. Liem Bio-Imaging Center.

Happy New Year!!
Our 2017 New Year’s Tide Bite is written by a scientific illustrator, Andrea Dingeldein, who did her internship at FHL in the summer of 2016. Read about how scientific illustrators can be critical to scientific communication, and enjoy her creative drawing of three sea urchin species on the 2017 FHL Bulletin cover, which you should have received in the mail in mid-December.
