This is why we love #CalciumSignaling Look how mechanical damage triggers long range Ca2+ waves in this plant !! By @annalisabellandi.bsky.social, who is now around here ;) Full www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... @science.org #microscopy #cell #mechanobiology 🧪🔬

🌿 Postdoc opportunity in plant evolutionary ecology/genetics! My lab in the Dept. of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology at the University of Michigan is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to start Fall 2026. We study plant adaptation, using weeds as model systems. #Postdoc #EcoEvo Pls RT!

Laughs in octoploid.

dplyr 1.2.0 is out now and we are SO excited! - `filter_out()` for dropping rows - `recode_values()`, `replace_values()`, and `replace_when()` that join `case_when()` as a complete family of recoding/replacing tools These are huge quality of life wins for #rstats! tidyverse.org/blog/2026/02...

This was good. I love parafilm and apparently I need to use the "M". Thank you Judson Moss Bemis.

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

Whoa, I never knew about this!

Lol nice try no such thing

New research provides a comprehensive annotation of cucumber lncRNAs using RNA-Seq data and offers insights into their potential regulatory functions in cold stress responses. #JASHS https://doi.org/10.21273/JASHS05517-25#JASHS#plantscience

Everyone in the past was neurotypical, which is how we got things like this single-author, eight-volume encyclopedia of ferns

I've been working on this then it hit me. Is this RhizoVision Tron? With open hardware and software, we can accelerate root, soil, and microbiome research. First, we have to solve the segmentation challenge of roots on soil so everyone can do it. www.rhizovision.com

Last few days to apply to this position! Come join us to model plant stress responses across species in this @cropxr.bsky.social PhD position! 🌱🌽🌾🥬🌡️

I know this is too general and context-free but if I never again see the words "low-hanging fruit" to describe research, it will be too soon. At this point, it might be safer to assume that all low-hanging fruits of science are already picked and whatever we collect with such ease is rotten.

A gift from a student 😂

Lab technicians, what are some “bench” secrets PIs don’t know? Replies are shocking 👇😳

I almost forgot. Today is the perfect date. 😀

If you're teaching a graduate level course, I beg you to include a module on how to schedule and run a meeting. Time zones, calendar invites, links, agendas, minutes, chairing. Together we can be the change we so desperately need.

babe what if we kissed outside the temporary hospital for scurvy-ridden whalemen who had been trapped in the ice for months

@jennbrophy.bsky.social Really enjoyed your NAPPN talk. I think you'll get to where you beat nature sooner than you think, but as you said, under specific environmental conditions. Can't wait to see where you take it.

I am very very jealous that this family on Prince Edward Island (Canada) had a small meteor hit their sidewalk and managed to catch it on their door cam in what is likely the first audio and visual recording of a meteor strike! youtu.be/F_1xInfNMok?...

Does anyone following me own a 3D scanner (or use one at work)? Not a phone app, looking for someone with stand-alone hardware experience

I think anyone who did a modicum of research about what Farage and Boris were saying could see through the lies. People were convinced they would take their country back from EU bureaucrats, but they took a faltering economy into the drain. FWIW, I was living there and voted "stay" when it happened.

This should be blown up to poster size and pasted on Brexiter walls.

#AdventOfCode #RStats Day 04 Loopocylpse. I haven't done much matrix stuff for a while so I just looped all the things. Used a "kernel"-like approach for the directions in the end.

#AdventOfCode #RStats Day 03 Burned a bit by an assumption that the lines in the file had any relevance. Not relevant until pt 2. Tricksy Hobbitses.

And if their demands aren’t met Sony is threatening to release the whole movie on December 13

#AdventOfCode Day 2. Was tricky because I missed a case in the text for "no change".
