[Please RT‼️] Mendel Early Career Symposium registration is open! Great speakers, small meeting, affordable & in Vienna. Great opportunity for #ECRs to network and get feedback. Please spread the word!!! #Mendel_ECR_24

We are here and would like to be connected to as many (plant) scientists as possible 👍🌺🍄🌿🌽🍁🌳🌾🌵

Are you planning to do a #PhD in #EvolutionaryBiology? do you like thinking about complex questions? Wanna integrate genomics, experimental evolution, population genetics? Get in touch with me! There are still 2 weeks to apply for our International #MaxPlanck PhD program!

It was wonderful attending #PAG31 this year. I presented updates on two active projects: 1. Assembly of a moss genome (Physcomitrellopsis africana) 2. Conservation efforts for the eastern hemlock. Going back home now- super tired but ready for more research! [conservation, plants, genomics]

@cynthiawebster.bsky.social presenting the EASEL pipeline- learn more at the workshop today at 4pm! [PAG31, genome annotation pipeline, RNAseq, functional annotation]

Are you a BSA member and interested in helping support and improve DEI in the BSA community? Apply to join the DEI committee! 👇
