I have had a bee in my bonnet for many years about this, and the bee is now frantic so here is a thread.

Excited to continue to characterize our local ecosystem through this fantastic program! Our undergrads have the opportunity to contribute to these statewide efforts! @CalPolyCSM@CalPoly
Certified reference materials (CRMs) are fundamental for accurate measurements of oceanic carbon cycles-#OA research cannot exist without them!
Coming up next at #OAWeek2021, a community discussion about CRM production & supply resilience
12noon ET (UTC-4)- Join the session👇
Not just #COVID19: Reviewers including Scripps' @kprather88 find evidence that measles, flu, cold viruses & others spread through aerosol transmission, arguing in @ScienceMagazine for better ventilation, increased use of HEPA filters to keep people healthy https://t.co/aXBOLi443u
We are thrilled to announce that Dr. Sarah Smith @smith8272 has joined the faculty at SJSU/MLML as our new biological oceanographer!
Dr. Smith will be leading the MLML Biological Oceanography Lab where her research will focus on phytoplankton ecology, evolution, & physiology.
Emilda Rivers from @NSF and @NCSESgov is kicking of today with amazing energy - love it!!
Join all events today to recognize, celebrate, and build a better future for Women, Minorities, and Persons with Disabilities in STEM
