I am very happy to share that the Missouri Botanical Garden has received funding to digitize their entire herbarium! This work - made possible by an anonymous $14.4 million grant - will image and transcribe all 8 million specimens in the MO herbarium.

UN Women's report on femicide showed that, globally, the most dangerous place for a woman to be was in her home, where the majority of women die at the hands of men. https://t.co/RsPRfOQYLz

"40% of nearly 2,000 specimens that we sequenced (and a similar number of those we did not sequence) required a different name as a result of our taxonomic revision."

Should we rely on journal impact factors in #systematics and #taxonomy? 🤔

⛓️ To give you a sense of how horrifying and brutal these prison sentences for #JustStopOil activists are:

Average sentence for violent crime = 1.7 years.

Average sentence for the JSO activists = 4.3 years.

Update from Gaza: Following an Israeli air strike that hit a camp for displaced people tonight in Tal Al Sultan, Rafah, Gaza, dozens of wounded and more than 15 dead people were brought to the trauma stabilization point that we support.
 
We are horrified by this deadly event, which shows once again that nowhere is safe. We continue to call for an immediate and sustained ceasefire in Gaza. #CeasefireNow
