Photosynthetic Sea Slugs, Venomous Cone Snails, and Brilliant Cephalopods with Michael Middlebrooks
- Photosynthetic Sea Slugs, Venomous Cone Snails, and Brilliant Cephalopods with Michael Middlebrooks Tyler Gleckler 53:20
Today I’ll be speaking with Dr. Michael Middlebrooks, Associate Professor of Biology at the University of Tampa. Michael is a marine ecologist and invertebrate zoologist, with an infectious enthusiasm for underwater life, and in particular, sea slugs. Much of Michael’s work has centered around photosynthetic sea slugs, truly bizarre organisms with many mysteries still outstanding. Michael and I discuss these creatures and so much more, including what scientists hope to learn from the venom of cone snails and the remarkable nature of cephalopod intelligence.
