Assistant/ Associate Professor of Mycology at UGA - Go be part of a Legendary Fungal Group fungi.franklinresearch.uga.edu and dept of plant pathology plantpath.caes.uga.edu www.ugajobsearch.com/postings/445...

The Department of Botany and Plant Pathology at Oregon State University is Hiring! We are searching for a Director of the Oregon State University Herbarium and applications are welcomed at the ranks of assistant, associate, or full professor.

I have some super exciting news to announce! Starting today, I have accepted the position of Director of Research at the Atlanta Botanical Garden! I’m so thrilled for this next adventure and so grateful for this opportunity! Here’s to the next chapter in plant conservation!!

Apparently my former MS committee member is involved here, truly not surprised. I spent 7 years at SELU and had nothing but a horrible experience. Toxic people in a toxic place apparently 🤷‍♀️

Great talks from RaMP scholars @tuataratuatarae.bsky.social and Ava Joseph in this morning Systematics & Taxonomy session #Botany2025

BSA members meeting 3pm Pasadena - all members welcome! #botany2025

Hey #botany2025 make sure to check out the Disabled in Botany symposium this afternoon (1:30, Catalina)!!

Careers in botany going strong at #botany2025 !!

Dr. Norman Wickett @reactionnorm.bsky.social has arrived. #Botany2025

I am excited to welcome #Botany2025 to my big backyard in the California desert. I kicked off the conference with a field trip up the Palm Springs tramway to explore the beautiful flora of the San Jacinto Mountains. I hope everyone enjoys Palm Springs!

Hey #botany2025 friends, is anyone going to the conference who wants to volunteer to be the "host" of the Botanists of Color affinity group meetup? The initial host can't attend the meetings :( Being host = being the contact person w/ BSA, and maybe saying a few welcome statements before event.

Coming to #Evol2025 and considering a non-academic career? Join me for our panel discussion on Friday afternoon!!

At the American Public Gardens Association in Denver meeting this week, glad I grabbed a copy of the Flora of Colorado 😍 it’s beautiful

What a tragic loss. Shu-Mei was such a kind, incredibly smart, and truly empathetic mentor. Such a joyful person. I’m so grateful to have known her. She so patiently walked me through my first conference poster. Later, she was a vital member of my graduate committee. She will be so missed.

The amazing thing about conferences is you run into friends you haven’t seen in over 10 years! #SICB2025

This workshop was really exciting for me because I got to invite @laeserman.bsky.social to be a panelist and show not all careers in botany are academic! #SICB2025

Aloha BlueSky! 🌟 Looking forward to meaningful conversations and a community that values respect and inclusivity. Excited to share stories about plant and seed conservation biology! 🌱 🌺
