So excited to share this paper from so many fun field seasons staring at purple needle grass with @lmhallett 💗 - grazing helps preserve native grass in a sea of non-native grasses

Super excited for #ESA2022 interested in invasion and restoration? we have several talks for you to check out @ClarissaRodd @StuartSchwab @teller_noah

I’m not at #ESA2022 but please check out the awesome Glassman lab science by @ArikChu @Dylan_J_Enright and @CaiafaMarcos (presented by @Dylan_J_Enright)!! (1/4) 🍄🦠🔥🌲

Check out this article: news.ucr.edu/articles/2022/… on our latest paper out now in Frontiers in Microbiology 2022; @cjcarey13 @UrFreundHannah @emmala @hyphaltip @nicholascdove @Morgan_E_Barnes @MBlakowski @NatPombubpa @sarahaciego @ccbucr @SNRI_UCMerced @miamaltz

.@UCRiverside ecologist @kurt_ecology has received a @NSF #grant to track the effects of environmental changes on creatures living in freshwater streams. insideucr.ucr.edu/awards/2022/08… #climatechange @UCRCNAS

@BitterWaterBlue Starting at noon in Spieth 2200 for keynote and then moving to Genomics auditorium for lightning talks. Zoom link as well on request.

The Fourth Annual EcoSlam is happening tomorrow at UCR! Key note seminar by Patrick Donnelly, @BitterWaterBlue the Great Basin Director of the Center for Biological Diversity. Followed with lightning talks by grads and undergrads from four departments.

@BitterWaterBlue This event is a graduate student led initiative! They are doing a fantastic job with using this to help inter-departmental interactions and grad-undergrad mentoring. @ClaraWoodie and @ElijahHallEco both having leadership here along with the team of CCB grad students.

Shipley-Skinner 2022 Call for Proposals is now available! We welcome proposals for research that enhances conservation broadly throughout the region. Applications due - May 13. #application_details" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">ccb.ucr.edu/call-for-propo…

Super excited to share this work and grateful to squeeze in another fun field season at this great study site @UCRECSierra @UCRCNAS

I'm super excited to announce a new paper from my lab on host mediation of symbiosis evolution. First author David C. Fronk (not on twitter). Symbiotic organs: the nexus of host–microbe evolution sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

The embargo is finally lifted and I’m very excited to officially announce my @USDA @USDA_NIFA agricultural microbiomes grant to study microbial response to wildfires in chaparral with @PeteHomyak!! Thank @JulesBernstein for the story! news.ucr.edu/articles/2022/…

Exciting news! #Fire and #fungi review paper stemming from 2019 @MSAFungi symposium is finally out! Super proud of this product and data from @Pulido_Fabi in Fig 4 😊 fun collab w/ @samlfox25 @uofmemphisbio @MicroSikes! sydneyglassman.files.wordpress.com/2022/03/foxeta…

Black-eyed peas are more than a Southern staple: They attract soil-enhancing bacteria. This means these common legumes boost soil health and could even replace costly, environmentally damaging fertilizer, say #NSFfunded researchers @UCRiverside. bit.ly/3IiclZs

Excited to share my lab’s paper led by @Dylan_J_Enright on megafire effects on fungi & bacteria in redwood tanoak forests 🌲🔥🍄🦠. Aka the story of how to make lemons out of lemonade when your plots burn down in a megafire, YET AGAIN 😂 #fungi #fire onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/me…

I had a great time visiting @VT_Biology last week. First in-person seminar I've given since before COVID! Had fun chatting with many amazing faculty and students... great science being done there! Thx @psilotreta for hosting me.

2nd PhD chapter is out! With @GDJecology @PeteHomyak @PattyOikawa and Jun Wang, we show multi-faceted benefits of drip irrigation in high-temperature forage agriculture: higher crop yields, lower water use, and lower soil emissions of CO2, N2O, and NO. doi.org/10.1016/j.agee…

Job alert! The Glassman lab is recruiting a postdoctoral scholar with expertise in bacterial/fungal genomics to be part of a USDA funded project! msafungi.org/postdoctoral-s… #fungi #AcademicTwitter #mushrooms #Genomics #postdocjobs
