@mkdium Nah. Look at all the other comments to the OP. It's all antisemitism and references to Israel.

@IvPendergast He’s commenting on the trans part most likely

This is my rep. He's an open antisemite.

Namibia. Wondrous Welwitschia. Hundreds of plants spread across the desert growing in areas ranging from sand to rocks. It has not rained appreciably here for ~ 5 Years

After 13 years Dinochicken Project has reached a threshold. We know how to initiate teeth, alter skull shape, transform wingtip to a 3 fingered hand, and produce a bony tail. Next and final step will likely have to be on an island, with a generous, intrepid donor!! #dinochicken

GlobalAMFungi: a global database of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal occurrences from high‐throughput sequencing metabarcoding studies - the final paper is online! nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/np…

45 climate scientists were asked what we thought of this years' climate disasters. Here are the highlights of what we said (thread) theguardian.com/environment/20…

@hallie_strwbrry @UGA_CollegeofAg @universityofga @UGAGradSchool Grrrrr. Unacceptable.

I often fear the outcome of speaking out but I can’t be quiet about this. I’m horrified. Flyers hanging up in my department’s hallways. Not sure what kind of sick sense of humor someone feels in degrading women in STEM (1/2) @UGA_CollegeofAg @universityofga @UGAGradSchool

@yyachung @StirlingULTra Oh no!

Vaccines work. Despite what thousands of paid Twitter blue checks might want you to believe, vaccines work. ourworldindata.org/covid-deaths-b…

@pabrailey Ooh, you can't break up via text. Double faux pas.

@SMWadgymar Good lord. My science says I'm number 1!

Attention Evolution & Ecology Peeps! Submit your @ASNAmNat Symposium Proposals for SSE/ASN/SSB 2023!! *Due date extended through the end of Dec* **Please RT**

@PurdueNorthwest Oh no no no no. An onion of unacceptable. Take responsibility, resign, and write a real apology. Anything less normalizes this behavior.

The German botanist Johannes Karl Albert Winkler, who failed Greek lessons, coined "genome" on the pattern of "chromosome" but forgot the "s": Chromo-some: Color-body (shows up when stained) Gen-ome: Gene-[nonsense suffix] Stick that in your meme-ome

Academics taking on new research projects be like

We are thrilled to launch the Rare Plant RaMP Network 🌿🌱🌵🌼. This @NSF funded initiative will fund eight postbac scholars from historically marginalized groups across four botanical gardens, @AtlBotanical @CABotanicGarden @MortonArboretum @SDBGarden

@DavidBLowry @JLDudycha Ooh, you should read up on him. He was real...and a real weirdo. He became wealthy, but was always barefoot and preached a spartan Christianity. Because he was fundamentally opposed to grafting, his apple trees almost exclusively produced hard cider.

Join our lab! A 2-year #postdoc position is available in the Devos lab at UGA to work on candidate gene identification and validation in switchgrass and seashore paspalum (and likely some millets too!) devoslab.franklinresearch.uga.edu/post-doctoral-…

@pabrailey Oh no! Sorry, Phil!
