We need more young scientists like @kymorales11 who are engaging and approachable to bring conversations on plant biotechnology to families, friends, gardeners, and the dinner table 🍱 🌱 🪴

Always love student-organized events. Thank you @GE_TAMU for a fantastic program with a great line of speakers and the opportunity to talk about #GeneEditing product development and what it’s like to work at @Bayer4Crops

BREAKING NEWS: The 2020 #NobelPrize in Chemistry has been awarded to Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer A. Doudna “for the development of a method for genome editing.”

Enjoyed chatting with folks at #PlantBio20 about working in industry. Some highlights: 1. scientific qualifications get you an interview, and soft skills get you hired 2. #Networking is key to identify opportunities thanks organizers @jphiliptaylor @kmgillespie @ASPB

My face when I am halfway through a professional presentation at an annual conference and the condo association decides to mow the lawn right outside my window and my toddler tries to bust through the door. 😑🤦🏻‍♀️😅👍 #covidwfhchallenge

Two things I really enjoy: 1. Coming up with cool new strategies or construct/experiment designs (preferably on a white board) that for sure are going to hit a goal and make an impact 2. Putting together presentations to summarize and communicate these ideas #ilovemyjob 🧬❤️😎

@AmandaBabb1 Happy Birthday/Mother’s Day Amanda! 🎉

Congratulations to @gregg_howe - A fantastic PhD mentor who shaped me to be the scientist I am today. Also cheers to all of the #HoweLab folks who mapped out a large piece of the insect/wound response and JA pathway. Crazy to see the authors I cite all show up in one zoom!

Starting to enjoy #WorkingFromHomeLife as I don’t mind giving my toddler hugs and kisses between every single mtg ❤️

All scientists live for that exciting moment when you see good quality data that lead to new discoveries. 🧬😎🎊 #ilovemyjob

New white board space in office with note from @GenomeLarry made my day 🧬😎 #lotsofcolors #ilovemyjob #ChallengeAccepted

Got to sort lots of winter coats @STLCrisisKids with these fabulous ladies @Bayer4Crops on #MLKDay. Thank you @STLCrisisKids for the work you do and making such an impact on the community. Stay warm STL!

@AmandaBabb1 @Bayer4Crops color-coded meetings!! 💜

1. Awards are awesome. 2. Peer-nominated awards are even better. 3. A peer-nominated @GenomeLarry Award means so much more. 4. The 3D-printed DNA 🧬 trophy just nails it. #ThankYou #ilovemyjob @Bayer4Crops #yearendcelebration

#WorkLifeBalance today for me means spending the day wholeheartedly with my toddler and reviewing manuscripts with a glass of wine 🍷after he goes to bed.

Coming into lab on a Friday night means you scare people and people scare you. #boo #HappyHalloween

Prime Editing. Templated editing without double strand breaks. No donor DNA. Beyond cool and certainly a highlight at #cshlcrispr19

Three lumpy rats. Panel A - Fed "GMO" corn. Panel B- Fed "roundup" herbicide. Panel C- Fed both. Scary, huh? But what about the rat that ate normal food? Table 2 of the same paper shows it got tumors too. Why not show it? Because then it is not scary. You've been fooled.

Pumpkin harvesting: An #OddlySatisfhing tradition just got a makeover thanks to #agtech.
