@e38e83a6 Is it still warm while snowing? Here in Davis the forecast for Mon/Tues is calling for rain with temps in the 70s, which is HIGHLY unusual for CA at this time of year.
I'm a Masters student in the Graduate Group of Horticulture & Agronomy at UC Davs. I currently work on dormant almond bud development. I've got an ongoing interdisciplinary project on carob (Ceratonia siliqua).
I probably got into plants due to being treated poorly by classmates, and having been chased by dogs I wasn't attracted to animals - so plants it was! I got into fruit due to tasting my first homegrown 'Newtown Pippin' when I was 9. #Planticipation #Botany #PlantScience
Starting to get more reply/introductions! Here are tips for building Plant Science/Botany/Ecology/Hort/Ag community here: Use hashtags even in replies so you show up for people who are following the hashtag. Did you know you could follow hashtags? Hit the hashtag, then on the upper right-hand corner of the results page hit the "follow hashtag" button. Interact with peoples' replies! Like, ask questions, follow! #Planticipation #Botany #PlantScience

NWS continues to flout ADA and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act...after the breaches have been repeatedly brought to their attention
Don't tell me ableism in STEM is no big deal. What the hell use is your #SciComm if you refuse to communicate important data (weather alerts, warnings, disasters) accessibly? Eugenics, is what it ends up being. #DisabledAndSTEM

You may think "eugenics" is an exaggeration here, but if you're a public agency disseminating information people need to make decisions about their safety and the safety of their homes in a form that can only be fully read by abled people, in the midst of #ClimateEmergency, then you're not just ableist but eugenicist. #DisabledAndSTEM #SciComm
I'm interested in checking out my options for PhDs in plant humanities (I'll continue checking out my options within plant science, botany as well). The hits I find are for Dumbarton Oaks and Royal Holloway. I was wondering if anyone can help point me to funded plant humanities PhD opportunities in the EU? @5f9be9ad
