We can also address claims like "hospitals are always full in winter", or "it’s just people who were already in hospital for other reasons catching Covid on the ward" Here are numbers of people in ICU beds (for any reason) in London hospitals, each winter Spot the odd one out

Not a bad way to enjoy a symposium! SC INBRE #SCINBRE

Please RT: A PhD student (3 yrs) or postdoc position (2 yrs) is available in our group at the University of Würzburg. We will combine electrophysiology and transcriptomics to study how pitcher plants secrete hydrochloric acid just like our stomach does. uni-wuerzburg.de/fileadmin/3204…

Signing 535 copies of The Physics of Climate Change, one for every member of Congress, was pretty daunting yesterday, but all done. Hoping to be able to get them out in the coming few weeks. Origins Project is more than half way to our fundraising goal... gofundme.com/f/s9sb4-climat…

Assistant Professor of Physics Dr. Hunter Sims was recently named recipient of a $101,854 grant from the National Science Foundation that will fund two, 10-week summer research visits to Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, Tenn. Read more ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ bit.ly/3cmUqCS

What an amazing RH Martin Plenary! Big thanks to our moderator Dr Loretta Ovueraye and our panelists Dr. Kelly Mack, Dr. Edward Moreira Bahnson, Dr. Veronica Segarra, and Dr Selwyn Williams!

GGBC (UGAgenomics) has an opening position to work with the state of the art genomics instruments (PacBio, Illumina, ONT-Bob Hope Airport, 10x Genomics) and bioinformatics tools. The position cat: Lab Technician, Genomics Specialist, Genomics Professional, Genomics Research Assistant).

Practicing with the macro lens!

NOOK for today’s SC INBRE symposium. #SCINBRE SC INBRE

Experiments failing? Try this for instant beautiful results ✨ A drop of 50% isopropanol w/ 1% methyl blue over a bed of sunflower oil. Evaporation of the alcohol at the edge causes a difference in surface tension, generating a flow and ejection of droplets (Marangoni effect)

Had a lot of fun giving a talk on Venus flytrap transcriptomics at ASB 2022. Good to be back in person. Thanks for the art, Andy! ASB Andy Bow

I did not win an NSF GRFP. I want to share this particular review; I'm not sure what to say about it.

I wish career status (e.g. early career scientist) was somehow standardized for teaching load. Seven years of research when you teach 4/3 or 4/4 is much different than seven years of research when you teach 1/1.

Congratulations Patrick Sydow for earning Best Overall in the Biology Department at the CofC Expo! Patrick will participate in the "Best of the Best" competition for SSM! #cofcssm #cofcexpo #CofCBiology

Appreciated speaking at the Jacksonville University Science and Engineering Lecture Series today, virtually. I’ll fly in next time.

On the cover whorled sunflower!! 🌻 @erikarmoore11 @compositaecarol thanks Chris Brown current Pres of ASB for the photo

Super excited about our new paper entitled ‘Convergence in carnivorous pitcher plants reveals a mechanism for composite trait evolution’ just out in Science Magazine and featured on the cover!
