Foods that can’t be saved don’t necessarily need to end in the bin. 🗑️ #Composting can be a great solution, as it helps repurpose #foodwaste by converting it into dark, earthy & nutrient-rich material that helps nourish the soil. 🌱

Incredible how fast microbiome research – which is genuinely exciting but still early days – has been exploited to sell bunk. OF COURSE, anti-aging industry in on the game. #Scienceploitation noise everywhere. Reality: little good evidence supports any of this stuff. Ignore.

Dear ⁦Aaron Rodgers⁩, - Homeopathy is pseudoscience bunk. - #VaccinesWork, as demonstrated by a mountain of great science. - Not getting vaccine a selfish, science-free decision that hurts your community & team. Be a leader. washingtonpost.com/sports/2021/11…

Fun fact: His preliminary exam was on RSV, & he might be the only congressional candidate to ever be briefed by Barney Graham, MD, PhD during their PhD qual exams back in 2010. My PhD classmate & friend (in real life) is running for NC Congress, y’all.
