Museum postdoctoral researcher Mary Blair recently traveled to Vietnam to search for nocturnal primates called slow lorises. Blair is currently writing about the experience on The New York Times’ Scientist at Work: Notes from the Field blog.

For an evocative look at a glowing underwater world, come to the Museum to see Reefs Illuminated, set in the remote South Pacific coral reefs of the Solomon Islands, which premieres at 11 am this Sunday, April 14, during the Milstein Science Series: Island Life program. Watch the trailer.

On Saturday, May 11, scientists will attempt to identify your discoveries while showing you some specimens from their own collections.

The Museum's popular, free Creatures of Light iPad app has been nominated for a 2013 Webby People's Voice Award, in the Mobile & Apps: Education and Reference category.
