Really happy that this paper has come out. Here is a thread I wrote about it when we originally posted the preprint... https://t.co/MZLPQc0EyQ
A fantastic job by grad student Laurent Whitt working with a great group of co-authors.
We are recruiting a postdoc @DanforthCenter for #NSF New Roots for Restoration Biology Integration Institute (https://t.co/Iy3WbMADYb). Join our team adapting plant phenotyping to enhance restorative practices in agriculture & landscape reconstr. Apply https://t.co/n4jujLr9WV.
We finally got this 60+ author paper on Inclusive Collaboration done, thanks in large part to @BaxterTwi! Also on the writing team: @IAcornflake @washjd C. Messina, L. Ainsworth, S. Sankaran, & T. Studer, @jdfriesner

Excited to highlight recent work from the lab: CRISPR-targeted transposable element insertion for efficient plant genome engineering https://t.co/GbaNOnChc8 Led by the terrific @mcliupeng
Today's episode is SO good. @ehaswell and @BaxterTwi talk with Olivier Hamant about robustness and efficiency--in photosynthesis, plant biology, and in human systems.

This research is crucial in supporting the future of bioenergy as companies like @Enterprise Rent-A-Car Institute work to create green alternatives to fossil fuels.
Danforth Center scientist Ivan Baxter, PhD, is on a mission to save water that will grow energy of the future. He will lead a five-year, $16 million, multi-institutional effort to increase the efficiency of water use in sorghum, a versatile bioenergy crop. https://t.co/BkfVg9JJmC
Do you use drones in your research/production program? 🚁📸🌿
Maybe you don’t now, but are sort of drone-curious? 🚁🤔
Perhaps there is NO WAY that drones could add value to your program? 🚁🚫
WE NEED YOUR HELP‼️
Tell us about yourself —>

I wish I could say something hopeful in response to the Supreme Court rulings of the last two days. But I'm at a loss. The ghoulish march towards more death and disgusting callousness towards peoples bodies- just leaves me at a loss.
Today we host a Special Tea Time in honor of the upcoming 53rd anniversary of the Stonewall uprising. Community members are invited to join a conversation about the historic event, which began the modern fight for gay rights in the U.S., and discuss what it means to be an ally.
Proud to share 'Ten simple rules for succeeding as an underrepresented STEM undergraduate' - maybe this could help someone in your life?
This piece will be used as a tool in @DalhousieU's "Scholars and Leaders" program!

The Novozymes Price Symposium @novonordiskfond is being kicked off by Peer Bork @BorkLab. His warning that many bioinformatics tools are developed in shakily funded low head count teams hits close to home. #NovozymesPrize
Latest in #FoodPricesForNutrition, from @DrKateSchneider: access to nutrients depends not just on food prices, but also household demographics & soil->crop micronutrients. New data from Malawi reveals which nutrients are lacking & how to boost them: https://t.co/S2XvhnejTu

So honored to provide interpretation services alongside another trilingual interpreter in support of an AMAZING Deaf scientist!! She’s impacting generations to come!! Thank you @DanforthCenter for creating a truly inclusive plant biology retreat.
Share and Read our article out today in @ScienceMagazine ... we make the case that students shouldn't be tasked with fixing what they haven't broken. Achieving #STEM diversity requires fixing the classrooms. (1/4) https://t.co/qWa1WK30yy
Do you have a vision for where plant phenotyping is going and the skills to make it happen? @DanforthCenter is looking for a new director for the phenotyping core. App review starts July 18th. please RT!
