The time has come for food manufacturers, policymakers, & technology innovators to rethink Listeria management. AFFI Director of Scientific & Reg. Affairs @Lory_OH shares how together, the food industry can reduce the incidence of listeriosis. https://t.co/8BTAlup9rT
Things for non-Black people to do on Juneteenth:
•buy from Black-owned businesses
•support (& donate $$) to Black-led organizations
•rethink your institutions’ DEI initiatives & figure out if they’re ACTUALLY helping Black people
•learn about the history & teach others
“Diversity is innovation. If someone doesn’t look like you, they don’t think like you and they can help you think differently.” - @DuncanJWardle#AFFICON Keynote Speaker
It was a pleasure to participate on this @CornellBGPSA alumni panel. Creating a community where Black students are seen, heard, and can thrive is a legacy I’m honored to be a part!
Since @JeffBezos is stepping down as CEO and y'all don't need any more Amazon packages anyways, support the robotics competition that I'm putting together through @emohaiti

@BlackInMicro I found my love of microbes in deep, dark, holes in the ground aka caves like @CavernsNPS. I spent a few years spelunking and searching for novel antimicrobial producing bacteria #MyMicroStory
Hey @BlackInMicro! So excited for this #BIMRollCall! I’m Lory, a Microbiologist by training and Food Scientist by proximity. I earned my PhD @CornellMicrobio studying Listeria monocytogenes and then took my talents to @AFFI to ensure the safety of frozen foods. #BlackInMicro
Hi there! I did my undergrad in chemistry and hold a masters and a PhD in Chemical engineering from @Cornell. I work as a sr. scientist in industry where I use modeling, simulations and AI to design new materials. #BlackinChemRollCall#BlackInChem
Happening today!
We rise in solidarity with #BlackWorkers they are often hired last, fired first.
Let’s #StrikeForBlackLives and show the world that we deserve more than has ever been provided to us.
A must read thread for anyone in ag sciences. Esp for land grants, how can we expect to support Black, Indigenous, Latinx, and POC growers if our students and faculty don’t also include people with those identities? #ShutDownSTEM#ShutDownAcademia
I don't know what's worse. People in leadership positions who stay silent or those who send empty words around while maintaining the status quo where they could actually make a difference.
It's time for actions...effective actions, not just words.

Shoutout to the parents who are taking care of their grown children even from 1000+ miles away! My mom sent me TP, hand sanitizer, and Clorox wipes! Bless her for being an #EssentialWorker and my favorite hero! #COVIDー19
