At the 2026 NEWMOA conference in Worcester, Massachusetts where I gave a talk showcasing our study findings on soil and plant factors influencing PFOS uptake in forage systems in Maine.

My thoughts and sympathies to the victims of fatal shooting at Brown University, Rhode Island. It is sad given we had a productive visit to the institute exactly two weeks ago.

I am sad to learn of the passing of Rt Hon Raila Amolo Odinga in India. Raila was a cherished leader, a PanAfricanist, and stood for democracy in difficult times. Kenya and Africa will miss you. Go well Jakom, Lala salama, Nind kod kwe!

Glad to join @UMaine particularly @UMaineExtension to work on PFAS, forage, and grain related research. What a team!

Happy to share our latest published article! The study shows that bioenergy switchgrass biomass yield and cellulose concentration can be reliably estimated from UAV-based multispectral data. Check it out:
