Christine Sprunger @sprunger.bsky.social is one of 39 visionaries named to the 2025 Top Agri-food Pioneers, or TAP, list by the World Food Prize Foundation. Congrats Christine! www.kbs.msu.edu/2025/07/chri...

Very honored and humbled! Thanks to MSU and KBS for creating the space for me to conduct meaningful research! A special thanks to PRI for submitting the nomination! Most importantly - thanks to my lab- as they are so often the ones on the ground executing our research in meaningful ways.

Soil is a medium for both life AND art! 👩‍🎨 Participants at @msuscifest.bsky.social got their hands dirty today with different Michigan soil types. The @sprunger.bsky.social and Hayden labs will be at the STEAM Expo Days again tomorrow from 11am-4pm. Don't miss the final day of "The World of Plants!"

The Democrats on the House Science Committee have set up a website to collect stories from fired federal employees, anonymously if desired. Please amplify. (This helps the lawyers establish standing for bringing legal cases against the administration!) democrats-science.house.gov/sciencefirings

I maxed out my credit card, emptied my savings account, and took out a loan to move from Alabama to Bethesda, MD. I don’t even qualify for unemployment since I’ve only worked at NIH for a month. I will be financially and medically devastated. Seeking suggestions for anywhere that’s hiring!!
