Does anyone have any good suggestions for a to-do-list/project/task-tracker programme? Ideally easy to synchronise between computers and a phone app? 🤔 Handwritten notes just can't keep up with me anymore 😅

Anyone have good recommendations for grinding really tough plant tissue like wood (teosinte fruitcases in our case) to get fine enough powder for DNA extraction? N2 + mortar/pestle, genogrinder, etc. haven't done the trick for us.

@gigi_rose They swapped the two w/o altering the designs, hence the weird entrances. Might be a myth, but sounds plausible!

@gigi_rose When I was at Cornell, I heard the original plan was Emerson nearer the road, Bradfield behind it. When they did the site survey, only the ground nearer the road could support the weight of Bradfield.

I got the keys to my new lab! It’s on the 8th floor of this beauteous, brutalist eyesore of a monolith. My only Q is: HOW DO I GET IN. Like, into the building. (Srsly. I know one snaky back way thru two adjacent buildings, but surely there’s a main entrance??)

Such a great atmosphere @KewGardens today! Huge visitor excitement around the new giant water lily #Victoria boliviana described as new to science yesterday. All three species grown to perfection in one pool. It's unmissable! @Plantmessiah @palmsmithy @KewScience

When I’m feeling under the weather, this little guy’s shimmy always makes me smile and do a tiny little shimmy/wiggle too.
