Whatttt?! I can’t believe I’m no longer there 😢
lastly- we would love your feedback if anyone has thoughts!
This work was an incredible collaboration with @paulineraim.bsky.social @henryarenas.bsky.social @erikajedw.bsky.social Vanessa Tonet, Craig Brodersen and an amazing group of undergrads.
New preprint out from my time as a postdoc in @jenncoughlan.bsky.social lab!
In a range-wide survey of M. guttatus, we found a lack of stomatal regulation in response to drought, which led to our inability to draw predictions from other known trait-associations
🌼🌡️ RESEARCH 🌡️🌼
Heat stress radically alters the pollen lipid profile and microRNA network in rapeseed and the identification of crucial molecular signatures provides promising markers for improving crop heat tolerance - D’Agostino et al.

Application deadline for this is approaching fast. Email me if you are interested in doing a 2-year postdoc in a project to study the reproductive system and population genomics of an European buzz pollinated plant. To be clear: this is to participate as a named postdoc in a grant application.

Okay this jogged loose something I've had half-written for a while now: Despite decades of effort, scientists have still not found a substitute for reading the paper
I am so appreciative that I had @jenncoughlan.bsky.social as my postdoctoral mentor. They are truly awesome and this is so well-deserved!
Thank you so much @botsocamerica.bsky.social it's been an amazing 5 years of growing the community of disabled botanists at Botany and we have many more years to come! Buffalo, here we come! @brythebotanist.bsky.social

Absolutely! We should chat. I'm still prepping it, since its a second semester course.
