Really excited that the CEO of our start-up #Hypogenica has applied to the @SWCPTV #StartupWorldCup. Really looking forward to hearing other peoples innovative ideas for this exciting competition: startupworldcup.io

We're looking for a Assistant Professor of Instruction in Microbiology/Immunology and are interested in applicants that can bring innovative and inclusive teaching practices to our programs. Apply here: bit.ly/3ZSP35H or PM for more info.

@AnitoriRoberto this one is for you

I think people imagine expedition science is quite glamorous, and not the early days, late nights, and equipment piled up on spare surfaces that it actually is…

@markowenmartin Hi Mark! 👋

@cavescience Hi Hazel!

Everyone thinks their students are the best, but I KNOW my students are the best!!

Take a walking tour through the spectacular @CavernsNPS in a video from travel vlogger Joey Evans. Carlsbad Cavern is celebrating 100 years with the National Park Service this coming October, so it is a great time to visit. ow.ly/a1Zo50LVpgo #caves #newmexico

amazing medieval words you should definitely add to your vocabulary, a thread:

Successful 2022 Mulu Caves Expedition - much science, many ideas, many questions to answer. Fantastic group of explorers to join. #mulu #caves

@AnitoriRoberto @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology I know - we try not to use single-use plastics, but it's impossible to find anything else for all that sorting and storing! The lab buys them in 500-bag boxes.

@cavescience @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology Just love how your sampling involves 8 gazzillion Ziplocs, just like ours!

Sampling has been going really well - we think ammonia from the bird poop might be the key to the aggressive dissolution - microbes!! @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology #caves

@parasiteecology @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology Yes, well aware. We are microbiologists.

Just out from a 3 day science camp. We thought the bird guano might be involved in making the caves - it has a pH of 1.7! We might be right!! @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology #caves

We landed at 12:30 and we in Deer Cave by 3:00 PM, checking out the cupula flutes, then watching the moneys and seeing if there would be a bat flight. @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology #caves

Waiting at the Kuala Lumpur airport for the next flight and Max is studying for the polymer chemistry exam he has on our return … at 4:20 AM

Heading to Borneo to figure out whether bird poop makes enormous caves. With my grad student Max - 20 hrs of travel and we’re in Tokyo boarding the next plane @uakronbcas @ZipsBiology

Iron cave paper that was rejected by the editors from two micro journals for being too geo, then from geo journals for being too micro. Finally in Scientific Reports... and I thought we were in a post-silo world. rdcu.be/cXoaE

Congrats to Dr. Hazel Barton on "Lechuguilla Cave: Discoveries in a Hidden Splendor," co-edited by @cavescience, professor of @ZipsBiology & @UAkron_Geosci. It covers the expedition of a cave that remained hidden in New Mexico until 1986. More info ➡️ lechuguilla-cave.info/book/

@bioinformatics @mdshawkey I approve this message!

@mdshawkey It’s because four eggs here cost $600 now, inflation has been brutal since you left.

American tourists in the Ledeberg Carrefour (for some reason?) marveling over the packs of 4 eggs

@markowenmartin Volunteering to help a non-profit develop a curriculum for adults. Had to make a few slides on the most difficult topic - reasons people act out. I illustrated it with a picture of my bestie. Haven’t stopped laughing since! 🤣😂🤣

Please reply with something wonderful and positive in your life. I need to balance the dark stuff I see. Thank you.
