Well...here goes lol. After months of contemplating, I decided to no longer be active here and will be deleting the mobile app. Admittedly, this wasn't an easy decision for me (more on that in thread). In the meantime, this pic below is where you can find me active. 🧵1/7

#PAG32 friends follow us on Blue Sky - same handle - where we are more active.

New year, new paper! Now published in @Nature. We identified and characterised diverse immune cell states in plants under pathogen attack. My postdoc work in @JoeEcker lab at @salkinstitute. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Congratulations to the next class of #HannaGrayFellows !! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

In case anyone's wondering how the Midwest Winterstorms been, here are three pics - the first pic is my driveway yesterday after the first snowfall, the second pic is after I cleared it, and the third pic is what I woke up to this morning. Over 10+ inches!! 😭😭

This is a reminder that BSA will no longer be posting on X starting Janin 1, 2025. We hope you will join us on other social media platforms, such as Bluesky, Instagram (@ botanicalsocietyofamerica), Facebook (@ BotanicalSocietyofAmerica), and BSA Slack (botany.org/home/membershi…).

Allow me to re-introduce myself! New job means new twitter handle/profile. Today is my first day as a Research Plant Pathologist at the Sustainable Perennial Crops Lab @USDA. Excited to join a productive team of scientists to protect coffee!

Last Wednesday we had our last lab meeting of the year. Consisted of a fun White Elephant Gift Exchange and me providing the State of the Lab Address for the first time! Great way to end off year one of the lab before the break!

Single tissue untargeted multiomics? Yes, please! our new paper is now online. Untargeted Spatial Metabolomics and Spatial Proteomics on the Same Tissue Section @PNNLab @EMSLscience @IMSSNews @gormanbritt9 @bindesh1 @WatersCorp pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Me to my Lab Manager: "Hey, you're going to laugh, but I need you to order something." LM: "What?" Me: "Those Pee cups." LM: "........w-what?...." Me: "It's for science, I promise." I realized I could've just said specimen cups. Another awkward #NewPI moment for me...🤦🏾‍♂️😅😅
