UGA alum- Go dawgs!

I feel like the amount of recent convos I've had about the instability of organics has really made an impact and that makes me happy

[Gary Orr @TallfescWho]

Just the beginning!!!

[Maddie Hall @maddiehalla]

Global warming is the biggest threat of our time & trees are one of our natural weapons to capture carbon. What if they could help faster? We @living_carbon are excited to unveil that photosynthesis-enhanced trees can grow faster and capture more carbon. Here's how we did it 🧵

[Living Carbon @living_carbon]

Today’s research is just the first step in demonstrating how empowering ecology, through the responsible use of biotechnology in trees, can be a scalable and viable solution to the climate crisis. #ClimateAction #ClimateTech

@TimFutureLeaf Can it survive at -196?

[Gary Orr @TallfescWho]

@TimFutureLeaf @espn I was saying the same damn thing!!! Luckily it didn't matter but refs were god awful.

[Gary Orr @TallfescWho]

@CharlestonPD Heard the shots, multiple guns followed by a pause and then 5-6 shots from a handgun. Terrifying.

Our first white x white cross in the greenhouse looks absolutely stunning! 😊

@EvanMcSoy Nice! You working on those photoshop skills for the background?

Excessively used word in plant genetics: 'toolbox'

[Michelle Cardel, PhD, MS, RD @MichelleCardel]

#AcademicTwitter: I used to be a horrible scientific writer. I was paralyzed by writing anxiety & it took me FOREVER to write papers. Last year I published 14 scientific articles (8 first, 2 second, 2 senior-author) & 2 book chapters.

@EvanMcSoy The lengths organic people go to...

@EvanMcSoy Just remember who came up with your handle
