@DianaSix1 talking to FABI about science art at our weekly Monday Morning Meeting. "Sci-art can be a way to explore your identity as a scientist."

Inspirational talk about sci-#art by @DianaSix1 this morning! 🍁🍄🪰 “Unlike with insects metamorphosing from a cocoon with a predictable form, #scientists emerge as a product of intention, #imagination, and fortuitous encounters - each a very different animal” #FABI

“South Africa is a global treasure in the realm of #biodiversity - containing more than 10% of all species of earth” 🌍 Eschar Mizrachi spoke about the #fynbos diversity, the King Protea genome and how all of scientists can contribute to the creative economy 🇿🇦🧬 Amazing work!

How cool is it to grow your own food? Once you do, you have a different perspective on food production. Farming is a noble profession and is essential for our country 🌍🌱🥬🍅

Let me tell you about Blastobotrys davincii, a new 'Fantastic #Yeast' and where to find it. This new xerophilic species was isolated from a famous mycologist's log house outside Ottawa, Canada.
