The climate crisis reveals that our civilization has never really been organized around science, contrary to the usual Enlightenment narrative. It is organized around capital. Science is embraced when it serves the interests of capital, and is often ignored when it does not.

We found that in cowpeas, early domesticated landraces showed robust symbiosis traits, unlike the degradation of symbiosis traits that has been observed in many modern crop varieties. Fantastic work here by Gabriel S. Ortiz Lore Torres-Martínez Max Manci

I'm excited to share that I will be starting as an Assistant Professor at Oregon State University in Botany & Plant Pathology this fall. My lab will study the ecology and evolution of infectious plant disease. I will soon be looking for a postdoc and students, so watch for an ad or send me a message!

I have another opening for an MS or a PhD student (preferably with an MS degree) to work on eco-evolutionary dynamics of plant-microbe interaction in coastal marshes. I will be attending ESA in Montreal next month - if interested come chat with me.

I was listening to an external leadership training and they said “women of color tend to take things personally” and I took that personally 🤣 I can’t seem to make it through a leadership training without a dash of racism being thrown in there and it scares me.

Looking forward to e-meeting students and colleagues St Mary's College MD tomorrow to talk about our unique and beautiful natural environment here in Australia and how we can harness plant-soil ecology to support it, conserve it, protect it. Thank you for the invite, Lore Torres-Martínez ☺️🍄🦠🌱
