Jacob Suissa and I wrote a #book about #ferns! It's beautifully illustrated by the amazing artist Laura Silburn. Will be released in May and you can preorder from Amazon. More here: mailchi.mp/btiscience/ferns

In our second episode, we take you to the forest floor and the treetops to explore epiphytic and ground ferns, and get to see and taste their beauty!

I still can't believe what happened yesterday. Very excited and grateful to have met some of the best pteridologists in the world attending the PPGII workshop at #IBC2024.

Very ferntastic plan for tomorrow! @westo_fernnerd and I've organised this symposium on phylogenomics of ferns and lycophytes that will take place tomorrow at the @ibc2024 in two sessions, with a lot of very interesting talks, we are looking forward to seeing you there!

Hi @ibc2024 people, I was invited to fill a slot in the symposium organized by @marcelorpace and @JGOnyenedum, Neptune 5 pm. I will present "Establishing when ferns unfurled: the origin of fiddleheads and the oldest leaf apical meristem" in Neptune and my talk will be the last.

sad news - @DukeU decided to dump their herbarium, which has over 800,000 plant specimens, one of the largest among in America, and includes many type specimens of @ladygaga ferns. What a shame. Please stop @DukeU admins for making this horrible mistake!!! @DukeChronicle

The Lycopodiaceae are a unique family of plants, often known as clubmosses. Chromosomal genome assemblies for two species in the clade reveal a surprise: Despite diverging 350 million years ago, huge blocks of the genomes remain unchanged. In PNAS: ow.ly/rX7l50QuG65
