I don’t know who needs to hear this but I can strongly recommend @LucigenCorp MasterPure Complete DNA & RNA Purification Kit for hard-to-extract RNA plant materials. I’ve been trying for weeks on strawberry fruit 🍓 until this kit!

How about this: Eliminate the job "post-doc". After a PhD you are a "researcher", and no punishment for multiple stops. At any point (age blind) you can apply for starting grant funds. You apply for consolidator funds w/in 7 years of starting lab (unlinked to PhD date).

Our new paper: environmental effects of #GMO are positive in some, negative in other cases. They depend on the modified trait, not the GM breeding process. Efficient regulation could facilitate new traits with unambiguously positive environmental effects. https://t.co/Ydj2IFL3K7

[Crystal Turnbull @BullCrys]

@DrAndiWilson How’s your concentration looking? 🤓

[Crystal Turnbull @BullCrys]

How awesome is this: @PlantSpps has sponsored the English translation of the book Beyond GMO first published by The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
It is open for all, as a digital publication 👇

This conference is a pretty special for me, as it’s the first time that I have needed childcare while here. And #SPPS2024 provided that, which I am very grateful for. @PlantSpps
