Had a wonderful time presenting my undergraduate research at the 8th Annual Plant Science Symposium at UF @UFPlants and met an array of brilliant plant scientists that are fighting for our future!! (such a beautiful campus too)

It's NSF GRFP season! Applications are due in October. Here is a link to a Google Sheet with essays from many successful applicants. #AcademicChatter

Please apply for the @systbiol Early Systematist Award! You will receive $1000 in support of conference attendance or research and 3 years membership in the @systbiol. Requirements in image (and on linked form). Apply here: https://t.co/VVlIYbiK0p

Super stoked to continue to be a part of the #AppsPlantSci fam! Apps has helped me a great deal & it’s an awesome journal with a great mission to make methods accessible. It’s a great resource for anyone trying to learn new methods and especially those 1st students in labs

Really proud to have my book 'Explaining Life Through Evolution' coming out with @MITpress this week. I wanted to write an evolution book that the general reader could pick up and understand but also one that could explain the subject to the uninitiated. https://t.co/kjoknlFQeI

I am super thrilled to see our paper published on the amazing anthers of Justicia (Acantaceae) in @annbot with collaborators @A___Fisher, Erin Manzitto-Tripp, Mark Porter, and Lucinda McDade @CABotanicGarden. preprint: https://t.co/KHMb84vNUc

Calling all Ornithology PhD students! Cleveland Museum of Natural History is looking for our next Curator of Ornithology by offering to support your last 1-2 years of study + a postdoc -> endowed curator position!! https://t.co/9d4db7tj7S #AcademicTwitter @AmOrnith #phdpositions

A new important paper for curators and collection managers of #NaturalHistoryMuseums and #herbaria now out (featuring #LagoLab PhD student @JanetMansaray): “Shining Light on Labels in the Dark: Guidelines for Offensive Collections Materials” https://t.co/cm44jthx1U

Happy #BlackInNHMs Week! My name is Laymon Ball and I’m a botanist 🌱and PhD candidate at @LSU_BioSci. Part of my research involves collecting genetic and morphological data from herbarium specimens of Neotropical Hillieae (#Rubiaceae) to understand macroevolutionary patterns.

I know it isn't cool to say you like your academic job, but I love @LSU - I really like Baton Rouge, and Louisiana and my colleagues and friends here. It isn't perfect but there are people here trying to make things better every day: Come join us

Super exited to share that are starting the search for a cluster hire in Science @nybg. Up to 5 curators in an array of fields from systematics to genomics and data science or AI (as applied to biodiversity). Please RT https://t.co/7oZpdJbWCr

📢Recruiting an @NSF-funded PhD student to contribute to our E. Hemisphere #IronweedRevision project!!🌍🌻🧬🌱 #Plant #Taxonomy #Systematics #Phylogenomics #Compositae #Vernonieae Deadline 15 Dec | DM or email w/❓s #IAmABotanist @KewScience @KewAfrica @BRIT_org @UTABiologyDept

I am thrilled to announce the #NSFfunded Louisiana Graduate Network in Applied Evolution (LAGNiAppE ⚜️), a postbacc training program targeting scholars from underrepresented demographics that will link @LSU researchers to institutions across the state. https://t.co/f6X4Rxvq2W

Congrats to @KuPaleobot grad students, @pfeilergenetics and @KeanaTang, for being awarded the Cookson and Moseley awards for their outstanding talks at botany! @kk_matsunaga and I couldn't be mote proud! 🌠 @kunhm @KU_EEB

@evoyeyo gave us a great talk about phylogenetic relationships of Brachyotum and the role the Huancabamba depression might be playing on the diversification of the group! #botany2022 @LSU_BioSci @LSUHerbarium

Planning your #Botany2022 schedule? If these #LagoLab talks on #tropical #botany, #phylogenomics, and #macroevolution are up your alley, don't forget to add them to your schedule! There are so many neat results we can't wait to share! #IamABotanist

Hi #Botany2022 folks! We are looking for 1-2 more people to split our Airbnb with us during the conference. It’s not within walking distance, but it is very cute 😋 We are five @CABotanicGarden botany grad students! Let me know if you’re interested, I’ll give more details!
