Very cool, and great teamwork! It looks like you both are having a lot of fun! My dog sport of choice is lure coursing, and my whippet had his first trial yesterday. I feel like we need a #ScientistsDoingDogSports hashtag!
Dr. Aimee Schulz@aimeejschulz

When I’m not PhDing, I’ve been going all-in on dog sports and boy are we having a blast! Taking time to cultivate my hobbies and develop community outside of grad school helps me to feel refreshed and tackle my research. It’s one of the biggest lessons grad school taught me.

I am loving the addition of the #MGM2023 Trivia Champion plaque to my maize shelf! I would like to thank my team for knowing sports, celebrity, and meme trivia and more broadly for being great people to do science with every day!

@MerKhaiBurch The stats about life on reservations (health, education, life expectancy, etc) are uniformly awful. We're never going to solve the problems unless we can honestly talk about the problems. And no one is going to do that if they're going to get attacked for a "deficit narrative."

Dr.MariaElena Zavala's talk at #MGM2023 was amazing. Dr. Zavala talked about research, mentors & work to increase the number of historically excluded folks in the academy. The Q&A session however had VERY disparaging comments about Indigenous peoples and I want to tell you why 🧵

This was an ugly moment for our community. Not only did we fail to interrupt the comments as they were happening, but we let the clapping be the loudest response. Any one of us could have said something in the moment, and we all failed. We need to do better.
Dr. Merritt Khaipho-Burch@MerKhaiBurch

What made this worse was that people clapped after this comment/speech. Hundreds of people listened, and no one said anything. They clapped. I felt too uncomfortable and shocked to get up, collect my thoughts, and say something 4/

We are excited to publish this work in @PlantPhys: doi.org/10.1093/plphys… with @DamonLisch. We created two potentially novel imprinted genes using Mutator transposons. There are no things that transposons can't do!

Now that crossing season is slowing down many places, please look forward to the fall semester and sign up to present at the Zeavolution webinar series! This is my favorite seminar series to share new data with evolution-minded folks. Reach out if you need more info.

Watching sighthounds run is one of my favorite pastimes. Here are a few seconds of my greyhound and whippet at play (captured in slow motion).

Today we send off high school teachers April Kinder and Rowena Frianeza, who have been in our lab this summer through ISU's Research Experience for Teachers program. I am very grateful to their contributions to our lab and look forward to meeting their students over Zoom!

Gotta love a paper bringing a classic maize mutant into the genomics era. Nice work team!
