Excited to see our cross-cultural analysis on dog-human relationships out there and ready to read!
What predicts how we treat our dogs? https://t.co/2pOSIrAsDT

👋❗️ ATTN #PRFB fellows AND sponsors!

We've written a letter to send to NSF petitioning for a cost-of-living adjustment that matches the next cycle of fellows.

Please share widely! READ and SIGN if you are a fellow or sponsor by Friday, Jan 20!

At the NSF PGRP meeting, the PRFB Fellows talked about how to make the fellowship more equitable given some challenges we experience. To collect data on individual experiences, we drafted a survey. We welcome contributions from current/past fellows - https://t.co/Q2bca5JpiV 1/2

Senseless #missile attack on the National #Herbarium of #Ukraine (KW). Fortunately, nobody injured and no irreversible loss of specimens. But so many other senseless attacks caused loss of lives and homes. Still, feels different to know I have been at this window just a year ago.

Domestication origin of an ancient #oilseed crop with emerging #biofuel applications (new #AJB research by Jordan Brock, Melissa Ritchey & Kenneth Olsen) https://t.co/HFzAR2bczD #botany #genetics #Brassicaceae @wileyplantsci

[Jordan R Brock @JordanRBrock1]

Thrilled to see this beautiful piece written by Talia Ogliore highlighting my most recent work - a collaboration with @learea5 in @WUSTLAnthro

[WUSTLnews @WUSTLnews]

Camelina — an oilseed plant grown in modern-day Ukraine — may have been a more widespread crop than previously thought, according to new WashU research. The findings could inform breeding programs to improve this crop for biofuels applications @WUSTLArtSci

@moore_evo_eco @CUDenver Congrats Mike, huge news!

[Jordan R Brock @JordanRBrock1]

This is madness, we live in a dangerous world. Take a stand for Ukraine, Europe, all of humanity.

Russian army is firing from all sides upon Zaporizhzhia NPP, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe. Fire has already broke out. If it blows up, it will be 10 times larger than Chornobyl! Russians must IMMEDIATELY cease the fire, allow firefighters, establish a security zone!

@BruceCarlson75 @manila_folder Agreed! I’ll post a update if I manage to paint one

[Jordan R Brock @JordanRBrock1]

Late posting this but wanted to share the final product of a collab w/ paper expert @manila_folder. Turns out you can make paper from Thlaspi aka pennycress! It’s a bit splintery and brittle - any suggestions on what I should do with it now?

[Jordan R Brock @JordanRBrock1]

@brett_seymoure So cool! Congrats Brett!

@JChrisPires @ProteinUniverse @AndrewDLNelson Thanks Chris, it’s no Brassica but I’m convinced it’s pretty close 😉

[Jordan R Brock @JordanRBrock1]

@18_malvina @NSF @ProteinUniverse @michiganstateu @AndrewDLNelson @BTIscience Thanks! It should be in august, I’ll be sure to send you a link!

[Jordan R Brock @JordanRBrock1]

I am super excited to announce that I got the @NSF #PRFB! My work will address the role of environment in shaping subgenome dominance in the biofuel crop camelina. I’ll be joining @ProteinUniverse at @michiganstateu and @AndrewDLNelson @BTIscience 😱 I can’t wait to get started!!
