@amycrobes.bsky.socialIn my Microbiology course at the University of Canterbury in Christchurch NZ, I could not help myself in the mutation lecture from presenting the MEGAplate evolution experiment. Thank you, @baym.lol and @contaminatedsci.bsky.social This video is such a great teaching tool. youtu.be/plVk4NVIUh8?...
