Sea hares (also known as sea slugs) are quite popular subjects amongst researchers in neuroscience. The sea slugs are known for their large and relatively few brain cells. The fewer the brain cells, the easier it is for researchers like Dr. Wright to find and study neural activity. Dr. Wright conducts research on sea hares,

Throughout their research, they found that when common loons settle down to breed, they prefer familiar nest sites over better lake sites. Read the official press release below, and check
Recent findings suggest a possible link between a placental hormone and postpartum depression. Science news website, LiveScience, spoke with Associate Professor Dr. Laura M. Glynn about her research on the stress hormone Placental Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone (pCRH) and postpartum depression. Dr. Glynn’s study shows that the levels of pCRH could eventually help predict a woman’s
