Oh, this DNA doesn’t seem to code for anything, must be useless. In fact, no, those non-coding elements are really important — for butterfly wing patterns and likely much more — and now we have a new way to determine just what they do. #nsffunded 🦋🧬

It's still up there in creepiest images I've seen in my career, but this stoma is a key factor in the air we breathe and the food we eat. Thanks to U.S. National Science Foundation funding UC San Diego researchers know how plants direct stomata to open& close and can work to harness the mechanism. #NSFFunded

I’m all for parliamentary fun but this is just silly now. [NARRATOR: It was at that moment that he began to explain to his pregnant wife why a sufficient number of members must rise in favor of a division lest it be considered dilatory.]

Did you know prairie voles pair bond? How about the role ancient non-coding elements play in butterfly patterning? Do you just love science? Have I got some Valentine's Day cards for you!

Taking steps to understand what hurts and helps vulnerable species and connecting that with conservation action. Putting U.S. National Science Foundation funded science to work.🧬

As the #AirQuality in the DC region worsens to #Purple, listen to my colleague Dr. Kendra McLauchlan explain how #wildfires result in smoke pollution hundreds of miles away from the burn. She also covers how U.S. National Science Foundation is advancing research to mitigate the impacts of fire.
