My sincerest thanks to Dave Dyer for giving me the opportunity to volunteer in the UMZM: without your initial support and encouragement, none of this would have been possible.
My deepest gratitude goes to Hank Green for seeing the potential and making The Brain Scoop a reality.
Thank you, Heather Hsu; without you the next chapter in my adventure would forever remain unwritten.
I thank The Field Museum for their continued support in the production of The Brain Scoop, and am so looking forward to becoming a part of their team!
And - from the bottom of my heart - thank you to everyone who has watched, liked, shared and commented: this would not have happened without you.

Exciting discoveries can be found in the most unremarkable of places... like, on this rusty car door, for example.
Field Museum scientists and their collaborators came across this 1984 Ford Bronco parked on the side of the road in Puerto Rico during a research expedition. They were looking for lichens: plant-like organisms that are comprised of a symbiotic relationship between an algae, and a fungus. After trying to figure out how to get the entire vehicle back to the Field in Chicago, they settled on taking the door. Today, were still learning new things about the lichens that call this rusty door home.
