Science People: We at NSF are still recovering/catching up/getting our lives together. But the agency posted these FAQs about post-shutdown resumption of operations which might answer a lot of Qs for you: www.nsf.gov/resumption-o...

🆕 The new issue of Annals of Botany is now online! 🌸 Pollination & plant–insect interactions 🪶 Plant–animal & microbial interactions 🧬 Genomics & evolution 🌿 Physiology & climate responses 🍎 Structure & function 🌱 Seeds & reproduction New issue👉 botany.fyi/ec7im6

These mockup covers are so fun! This project was so much stronger thanks to the data provided by Alyssa and Jolie (pictured). Thanks @ijpsjournal.bsky.social for valuing the important contributions that undergrads make to research.

1. Anti-trans outrage is losing its bite. Last week, Elon Musk led a mass boycott campaign to get trans characters removed from shows on the platform. Major conservatives joined in. Now, we have the result: the boycott was a fizzle, and Netflix stock is up. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

RFK Jr on Tylenol and autism: "It is not proof. We're doing the studies to make the proof."

People: "Things used to be better." Scientist: "When did it start getting worse?" People: "When I was born." From "The illusion of moral decline" by Adam Mastroianni. shorturl.at/FFEDV

Patterns of hybridization are driven by many factors. Here we explore these patterns w a special emphasis on breeding system variation. Really great collab w wonderful students and colleagues!

"You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make." Rest in Peace, Jane Goodall 🙏🏻

We are deeply saddened by the passing of UN Messenger of Peace Dr. Jane Goodall. Her life’s work championing conservation, humanity and the natural world leaves an enduring legacy. Our condolences to her family, the Jane Goodall Institute and all who draw hope from her example.

Despite These Times...my department is hiring! I really like my department, we have a good mix of disciplines and organisms and we're really low-drama. We also get pizza at faculty meeting. So if you're a computational and structural biologist, join us! 🧪 jobs.rutgers.edu/postings/260...

So happy with this one!

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended

'Rapture' comes from the Latin 'rapere' meaning "to seize and carry off." 'Raptor' also comes from 'rapere.' We hope neither carries you off today.

Light pollution is causing birds around the world to sing for longer each day, prolonging their vocalizations on average by 50 minutes, according to a new study in Science. Learn more: https://scim.ag/3Uz7vzP

Is the Most Effective Pollinator Principle a zombie idea? How do plants adapted to one pollinator shift to another without traversing an adaptive valley? How should we measure fitness in pollinator selection studies? We explore these questions and more in a new review doi.org/10.1093/aob/...

MSU Plant Bio is hiring a new herbarium director! Our herbarium is a wonderful resource on campus and I'm excited to have the opportunity to make it even better by bringing in a new director. Details here: plantbiology.natsci.msu.edu/job-postings...

@ijpsjournal.bsky.social is not a society journal (we're 150 years old and pre-date most North American scientific societies), but we are published by the non-profit @chicagojournals.bsky.social, have no page charges, and have OA for as little as $400 USD. #PlantScience

Excited to talk about our work on the relationship between bud depth in the soil and bulb size this morning (8:45, Mojave) at #Botany2025! 🪻😍🧅 If you can’t make it, check out the paper for all the info! Paper: www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/full/10....

Excited to showcase my new Open Educational Resource for intro college level Botany. It's a hybrid textbook, lab manual, and workbook. Published and ready for anyone to implement! I'll be showcasing it in the Educational section of #Botany2025 today and handing out copies & stickers!

Alexandria Declaration coming out from courageous NSF staff. www.importantcontext.news/p/national-s... I knew this was it in the works, but did not know the timing. Stay tuned...

🧪 BREAKING (good news): Senate subcommittee says NO! to Trump's proposed slashes to NASA & NSF funding. Today, the subcommittee said to keep NASA + NSF funding at $33.9 billion, the same as in FY24. See 7:15 below. Full Senate appropriations committee meets tomorrow about it. 🧵 1/3

Lo logramos. Gracias a los participantes que hicieron todo posible y a NSF y al SSB por el apoyo ! #evol2025

Been quiet lately for a good reason (vacation), but hopping onto to say: 🚨 NEW NSF LAWSUIT TODAY!!! 🥳🥳🥳 Targets grant terminations & freezes in spending congressionally appropriated funds. Press release: democracyforward.org/updates/coal... Complaint: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This. Is. Already. How. It. Works.

I like this Gavin more than podcast Gavin.

Hmmm… so masks work and so do mask mandates in schools. “We further estimate that the removal of mandates during this time contributed to 21800 COVID deaths through the rest of 2022, 9% of the U.S. total that year.

Our latest, led by @jameswclark.bsky.social of @milnerevolution.bsky.social shows that the notorious mismatch between molecular and palaeontological estimates for the timing of origin of angiosperms is a consequence of equivocal interpretation of their fossil record @bristolpalaeo.bsky.social

We're suing the Trump administration over its politically-motivated termination of research grants that has already harmed scientists and our communities. Political ideology shouldn't dictate public health.
