The biggest impact I'll ever have as a professor is the people I help to train. Felt wonderful to see so many current trainees and lab alumni together in one place this past weekend.

During poster sessions I like to check in on presenters from our lab. I think @vla_torres has maxed out most people listening to him explain his poster on combined species transcriptome wide association studies.

Ed Buckler awarded the 2025 McClintock Prize in absentia. Two thirds of the room standing by the end of “if you were trained by Ed, stand up. If you were trained by one of those people, stand up. If Ed’s work has shaped your career, stand up.”

First time ever seeing corn at our Syngenta Puerto Vallarta winter nursery research station. Truly a state of the art R&D site and research team- and perhaps the best I’ve ever seen in the industry. I’m not sure which is more beautiful, the scenery or our new germplasm 😍🌽

James Schnable telling 3 stories in 15 minutes on using better algorithms and better data to: 1) Find the right traits, from @HongyuJin5 2) Find the genes controlling those traits, from @Harshita17_ 3) Find sequences controlling expression of those genes, from @tross_michael.

Karla @karlacuellarper is an undergraduate researcher comparing eQTLs regulating the expression of orthologous genes in maize and sorghum. Really remarkable work.
