Technically, my office during my PhD l was in a natural history museum setting (Orton Geological Museum), and as an undergrad at KU I worked as a collection's assistant in invert paleo at KUNHM, which means I've * actually * been in/around museums for ~14 years! I'm old.

An ancient worm, Utahscolex ratcliffei, from the Spence Shale Lagerstatte in Utah. Worms are rare at this site and what's more this one has its proboscis preserved. KUMIP 490902 from @KUNHM

Looking for #weevils, but chrysomelids will always catch my eye 🔎. Collected recently by @taxonbytes.bsky.social in Kansas. Digital records live in Specify and will soon be mobilized to @gbif.org and Symbiota 💚. #BornDigital #SEMC #KUNHM

Had a great time visiting faculty, postdocs and students @KUEEBGSO @kunhm yesterday and meeting with Chip Taylor @monarchwatch. Seeing #monarch butterflies always makes my day.
