A video of me in the field by Melissa Wells won the Reader’s Choice award for best science video (a “Labby”) from the Scientist Magazine, and was chosen as one of the must-see science videos of the year by NBCnews.

A video of a botfly emerging from Mark's hand, has been popular on youtube and was used for a time at Yale medical school. Think of it as the closest experience a man can have to giving birth. Prepare to be awed (or terrified).
