Excited to work with this fabulous team! Learning a lot about #IPM #entomology and #TreeFruit while bringing #scicomm to the mix to ensure we are meeting grower needs. @UGA_CollegeofAg #LammLab

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

A big congrats to @allisonrbyrd who just entered doctoral candidacy this morning. Her research examining the role of #scicomm in attracting the best and brightest #gradstudents to Colleges of Ag could alter the way we do ag research! @alec_uga @UGA_CollegeofAg @UGAResearch

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

Wonder why some people donate to organizations they care about and some don't? The #LammLab found the more we self identify as conservationists by donating $$ the more likely we are to save water at home! @alec_uga @UGA_CollegeofAg https://t.co/A8NNGzASCZ

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

Amazed at all the #LammLab team has accomplished and the impact our work has on climate change and beyond. A great time at @ACETweets4U (Association for Communication Excellence) capstoned by this amazing recognition @HeyDrKatie

[Katie Sanders | PhD @HeyDrKatie]

I am honored to share my team received the Journal of Applied Communications #ArticleoftheYear at the #ACE23 conference this week. Our article relates #scicomm, #politics, perceived government control, and climate change! @lexlamm https://t.co/YMWxAQvlCu

So excited to be a part of this amazing group of scientists discussing meat production and consumption with an industry that really cares about consumers. #InformedEating @TheProteinPACT @UGA_CollegeofAg @alec_uga https://t.co/bhPh7bYhhu

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

Ever wonder if there another way to measure and #evaluateimpact as we strive to make our communities better? Check out a new approach using the CD+SI Toolkit we used with Healthier Together, a @CDCgov funded @UGAExtension project. @UGA_CollegeofAg @alec_uga @PublicHealthUGA

[Katie Sanders | PhD @HeyDrKatie]

Community capitals are a great way to assess programs in communities. Our recent study used mixed methods to capture program impacts of a #rural health intervention in Georgia and to find gaps in community ranking of capitals based on two methods. @lexlamm https://t.co/D9WYsuN076

@alec_uga MAEE graduates taking main stage. Impressed by all of you! Congratulations!!! #ugagrad @UGA_CollegeofAg

[Allison (Fortner) Byrd @allisonrbyrd]

Do social media platforms, research disciplines, or scholar characteristics affect engagement when communicating #universityresearch? Check out our research note in #JIAEE about how targeting content can help in #sciencecomm @lexlamm @HeyDrKatie https://t.co/kmPpIqrlyt

Gen Z is known as the #sustainability generation, but how does that identity influence their eating habits? Check out our new study in @Foods_MDPI about educating Gen Z about food and sustainability #scicomm #systemsthinking @lexlamm @allisonrbyrd https://t.co/ji5dP8CIbs

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

Proud of these @alec_uga grads! First PhDs to be hooded out of our new program! #ugagrad @heydrkatie #newdocs @UGA_CollegeofAg

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

Our #HealthierTogether work in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior highlights the role culture plays in food selection and physical activity engagement. Results were highlighted as an Editor's Choice article. @HeyDrKatie @alec_uga https://t.co/SCOjhMqPdD

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

Spring has sprung so it's time to get out and start gardening! Did you know engaging in a community garden can result in healthy eating and increase your physical activity? #HealthierTogether @UGA_CollegeofAg @UGAExtension @alec_uga @HeyDrKatie https://t.co/wDLMEVcRcN

[Katie Sanders | PhD @HeyDrKatie]

Often, the #LammLab posts about communication research - but we work in education too! Research is at it's best when it's interdisciplinary, so check out some of our work presented at the American Association for Agricultural Education! @lexlamm https://t.co/kdfxWeejrh

[Katie Sanders | PhD @HeyDrKatie]

We recently published a needs assessment for improving #foodaccess through Extension in rural Georgia. We would love to hear from you - what similarities or differences do you see in your state? https://t.co/wqnyDUggAP #mdpisustainability via @Sus_MDPI @MDPIOpenAccess @lexlamm

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

Great publication off @UGA_CollegeofAg @UGAPublicHealth @UGAFACSEXT collaborative project. Amazing things happen when interdisciplinary teams get together to wrestle the tough stuff. #wickedissues @alec_uga #foodforall

[Katie Sanders | PhD @HeyDrKatie]

We know that #PSE change is critical for health equity, but do we spend enough time adding #culture to the equation? We explore this question in our recent publication in #JNEB #HOP4HealthEquity #healthpromotion #ruralcommunities @lexlamm @DietDrAli https://t.co/rK4q36vu8w

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

Excited to discuss how we can share impact using individual and collective #storytelling and represent @UGA_CollegeofAg and @CASTagScience at this kickoff event. Join us online!

[Alexa Lamm @lexlamm]

#Plasticpollution in our food system is a serious issue. Kristin Gibson's work in the #lammlab is exploring how to effectively communicate with users to reduce plastic water bottle use and impact policy. Proud her work was recognized as the #NACS2023 Outstanding Research Paper!

[IA Society & Natural Resources (IASNR) @info_iasnr]

New #SNR paper by @Laura_A_Warner, @lexlamm & Kristin E. Gibson. Increases in perceptions of others’ pro-environmental behaviors relates to residents’ increased willingness to reduce irrigated landscape.
