@asparagus_12 Nem precisa ir a países de primeiro mundo. A Turquia já fez isso 15 anos atrás.

@SethSHowes That’s fascinating!! Have you considered sending your DNA sample for Whole genome or exome sequencing by a service provider? I’m pretty sure you’d still have privacy of your data. I’m just wondering if that would be cheaper than buying the minION and reagents..

[Prof Lennart Nacke, PhD @acagamic]

Your postdoc is trying to start a family.
Your PhD student just lost a friend.
Your staff scientist sends money home every month.

You spend years with these people.

You know their research inside out.
You know nothing about what they're carrying.

Ask how they're actually doing.

It matters more than you think.

I was quite reluctant to leave this social network, mainly because of the (plant) science community I follow here. But as this place got more and more sad I decided to take a peek at the neighbor to find that everyone is already there.
So, here we go:

Just a quick update, tomaccos are doing super well a week after grafting!

[Diego Brito @dipbrito]

Today we are grafting tomato on a tobacco rootstock. Should we call it tobato or tomacco? 🤔😅 @plamorf @sezginmengi

@KomalaKSK7 @plamorf @sezginmengi I'm personally in favor of tobato as well, but seems like tomacco is leading here. 😅

Today we play puzzle in the lab 🫠🫠🫠

That one day of the year when you look up like a proper Scientist (but you're actually just afraid of an Agrobacterium squirt into your eyes) 🤭

Science wins!

MEPs vote in favour of supporting greater use of New Genomic Techniques (#NGTs) in the EU.

This is a huge step toward more sustainable agriculture.

Thank you to everyone who has taken action toward this outcome. 💚🎉

There's something hard for us, children of the colonised, to articulate because the world is upside down. Europe and its descendants, can't differentiate between principle and episode. This is why Germany (and much of Europe) is doomed to be genocidal. Here is what I mean. 🧵

The 6th Plants and People conference is starting at @MPIMP_Potsdam !!
Excited to take part in my first ever conference! Looking forward to meeting many other researchers 🌿

@u__progress It's a transgene, should give me a single band. I realized I used the wrong primers. 🥲
