What is #BlackBotanistsWeek? 🌳🍂🌼 blackbotanistsweek.weebly.com/about.html

Yesterday was INCREDIBLE! Can't wait to meet more of you! #BlackBotanistsWeek Day 2! #PlantInteractions 👩🏾‍🦱🐝🐦🦠🍄🌱

Woopwoop!🎉A little delayed for the #BlackBotanistsWeek but here I am!👩🏾‍🔬I study how plants can survive without water🌱💧➡️#desiccationtolerance. This is found in many seeds and a few plants called #resurrectionplants.*the 2nd pic is an Geneia@home experimentation🤓orchid pollination.

Be sure to check out the #BlackBotanistsWeek tag! ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻 Who are some botanists you follow?

Black ppl have historically had a relationship w/ plants (i.e. embodied knowledge) but there are few #BlackBotanists. This #BlackBotanistsWeek lets ask what's pushing #BlackBotanists out of academia? In honor of Day 3 #BlackPlantLove "New growth" I appreciate you. & N. Waheed poem

#BotanizingWhileBlack I am loving exploring the diversity within botany this week... the people and the plants!! I am feeling so inspired! 🍃🌳 My face this week seeing all the #BlackBotanistsWeek tweets

Celebrated #BIPOCinNature by escaping to the hills! 🥾 #BlackBotanistsWeek has been an incredible week filled with so much joy! Thank you all so much 💚 Ps. The plant is a Thistle - the National flower of Scotland 😊

What an amazing day hearing talks from my fellow third-year PhD students at today's Institute of Molecular Plant Sciences symposium! Hearing about topics from Begonia leaf development to the chemistry of the cell wall. And to top it all off I won joint best presentation with @Lindsayplantsci !😱😁

So much fun to be back at Clock Club yesterday and in the city of my undergrad! And well done Sergio Gil for a fab talk. Gerben van Ooijen

Woohoo! First paper is out, guys. Check it out!

Seleno... what? Another one bites the dust for Holly Kay Institute of Molecular Plant Sciences Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh mdpi.com/2073-4409/11/3…

Potentially my favourite talk EVER by Kristin Teßmar-Raible on time information decoding from the sun and the moon at EBRS this morning 🤩 #EBRS2022 European Biological Rhythms Society

my #EBRS2022 talk is tomorrow! Make sure to stop by if you want to learn how bacteria can predict the seasons despite only living for a single day 🦠⏰❄️

Huge huge huge congratulations to my housemate/lockdown buddy/labmate Dr Jade Bleau | #BlackBotanistsWeek 🌱 for passing her viva today (ft love island water bottle) 💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞

Congrats to Jade Bleau | #BlackBotanistsWeek 🌱 on passing her PhD viva with flying colours!! Great science adventures ahead in the @BosJorunn lab😃. #BlackBotanistWeek2022 Institute of Molecular Plant Sciences Biological Sciences | University of Edinburgh

I passed my viva!! #PhDone 🎉🎉 Very happy that it happened during #BlackBotanistWeek2022!!! 🌱 Thanks Spoel Lab for 4 wonderful years!
