The first "modern" micropipette was made by a German postdoc, named Heinrich Schnitger, in just 2 days in 1957. Schnitger's pipette had a spring-loaded piston, a second spring to dispense residual liquid, and a plastic tip. Eppendorf quickly licensed his invention. Read more 🔻

I’ve been itching to carve this fish for my #JackOLantern for a while now… I present my pelican eel (Eurypharynx pelecanoides)! These fishes have a highly expandable mouth (like a pelican) to consume large prey and they have a pinkish bioluminescent organ on their tail tip!
