Here I want to die
I’m her air, water and metal
With her, I learnt to feel exhaustion
Leaving on the furrows my salt.

The 8th habit of highly effective people: They don’t spend all their time reading about the 7 habits of highly effective people. Extended reflection without action is a form of procrastination. Doing is a catalyst for thinking and learning.

Postponing a choice rarely solves analysis paralysis. It often amplifies anxiety. The antidote to chronic indecisiveness is not to gather more information. It's to clarify your values. The goal is not to check every box. It's to find an option that meets your top priorities.

A Global South scientist wants to scratch a bit of State of the Art. She waits months for reagents, gets samples in LN, drives 3k km for 3d touring the 2 institutions with NGS facilities in the whole country. The bright side is that Mexico is beautiful! Happy to be your driver 🍀

Many people stagnate trying to change what they can't instead of growing by changing what they can. We don't control how others treat us—we control how we treat them. We don't decide what happens to us—we decide how we respond. Our reputation is not up to us. Our character is.

90% of academic papers I read are now AI-assisted. Most researchers are in complete denial. I'm a professor who's been brutally using AI for 18 months. Here's what I learned that could save your career:

After 15 years in academia, I'll tell you in 30 seconds: 1. Perfect presentations don't pass vivas. (Confident discussions do.) 2. Your weaknesses are actually opportunities (to show academic maturity) Here's the viva slide playbook that works every time:

The EU wants 25% of farmland to be organic by 2030. But there’s a problem: 🌱 Organic yields are lower. 🌍 That means more land, more emissions, more pressure on biodiversity. So what’s the solution? New genomic techniques (NGTs). But… they’re banned in organic. 🧵 Let’s

I gave my first talk about native maize research. I felt again like a PhD student in front of this audience of agronomy professors and students 😅. What a wonderful way to enjoy our National Maize Day🇲🇽🌽. I am grateful to TecMX Papaloapan for inviting me to join the celebration.
