So happy to see this out in the world!!
Glad to see my 1st paper frm @nrt_impacts as co-corresponding author w @drtlong & the dream #gradstudent team 🙌 @FabioGomezCano1 @sethwhunt @SLotreck @davismathieu @McKenaLWilson now published in @CourseSource

June is Migraine and Headache Awareness Month. This month recognizes headache and migraine communities that are continuously working together for headache disorders to be recognized as legitimate neurobiological diseases.

ALT Migraines include head pain, sensitivity to light and sound, nausea, brain fog and dizziness. Migraine affects 1 in 4 households in the U.S. and more than 1 billion people globally. Up to 90% of people report that migraine interferes with practically every aspect of their daily life
Congrats @RileyPizza !!
Riley Pizza, a doctoral candidate in Plant Biology, is our Educator of the Month for June 2023. Riley explains how educators shouldn’t just tell students what to learn, but also HOW to learn. Read more in this month’s feature: bit.ly/43OdqUh #MSU

True or false🧐: system administrators are introverts who love caffeine and Szechuan food. Find out from Kelly Climer, an ICER sysadmin, who took us behind the scenes to learn about his profession. Check out "A Day in the Life of a System Administrator." bit.ly/3NjmaMK
Absolutely fantastic presentation on some seriously cool research! Congrats Erik!

What are the biggest issues facing plants globally? How do we work as a team to tackle them?
Delighted to share my 1st author paper, '100 questions facing plant science: an international perspective'
How did we ID our Qs? What did we find? nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/…

Most land in most American towns is zoned exclusively for single-family homes. Not to mention, most areas have parking mandates and minimum lot size requirements that would make this style of development virtually impossible to build.

not a subtweet or anything just an occasional reminder that real and amazing people live here! using Lansing as a pejorative for political dysfunction is lazy and not clever, most of the people you're hating on live somewhere else
Feel better Anna!!
I'd hoped to be at maize meeting starting today, but a broken ankle has changed my plans. However, the amazing @McKenaLWilson is bringing my poster and putting it up for me, so you can still go read it at poster 73! Also, you should check out McKena's talk (number 9)! Thanks!

Exciting indeed, do you identify as black or afro-american plant scientist? Do you mentor or supervise a black or afro-american scientist? Do you have a colleague, labmate, friend of this ethnicity? Be one or be an ally, follow @BlackInPlantSci and check updates. RT

Prairie strips are a farm conservation practice that requires minimal intervention and delivers huge benefits
By converting 10% of cropland to native prairie, farmers can reduce soil loss by 95%, total phosphorous loss by 90%, and total nitrogen loss by 85%
A quick summary:

We are excited to share our new @NatureEcoEvo article! Using data from > 300,000 biological sciences manuscripts and policies for > 500 Ecology & Evolution journals, we found evidence for bias during peer review (a🧵)

Well, happy they at least reeled back in and didn’t follow through on the most harmful aspect of this decision, but removing the shelter is still beyond ridiculous… it rains so much here 🤦♀️
Calling all people with cars: Boycott. Frandor. If we’re going to have a car centric world anyway, why don’t we drive to west Lansing/south lansing/literally anywhere else to go to the same chain stores? There are other nearby groceries, and things like Joann’s are less frequent
