#blackbotanistsrollcall I am a recent undergrad who will be working as a paraprofessional @coloradocollege this year. I am endlessly curious about bromeliad reproductive morphology and breeding systems. In my free time I like to geek over craft beer #blackbotanistsweek2022

#BlackBotanistsWeek #BlackBotanistsRollCall Hi everyone! My name is Brandon Williams. I am a 4th-year Plant Biology PhD candidate at Cornell University. I’m new to Twitter and want to use it to connect with other plant and science people!

Chicago Botanic Garden’s plant biology REU program: From Genes to Ecosystems, is accepting applications until Feb 10th (this coming Friday!). Plant Biology and Conservation Program Chicago Botanic Garden pbcinternships.org

feeling just a litttle emotional about making this switch in my field gear (but mostly excited for spring!)

some favorites from spring in the Midwest so far... mayapple (Podophyllum peltatum), trillium (Trillium grandiflorum), prairie shooting star (Dodecatheon meadia), and wild ginger (Asarum canadense reflexum).

jack in the pulpit joy! (Arisaema triphyllum)

Had a wonderful visit here yesterday. Amazing group of scientists, grad students and PostDoc. Looking forward to forging new collaborations and nurturing the new networks that were formed yesterday and in the days to come. Thank you!

Hey #ESA2023 - wanna hear a cool talk about environmental gradients, management, seeding and diversity in oak woodlands!?! Check out @RSchiafo’s talk this morning at 9 in E145! Plant Biology and Conservation Program

Bittersweet goodbye to my stellar Plant Biology and Conservation Program REU intern Anabelle! She tackled so much this summer - from fieldwork to a greenhouse experiment examining responses to drought in Castilleja. We will miss her greatly- and if you are hiring for a field tech position let us know!

The deadline for students to apply for the 2023 GRFP Workshop is Sept. 8th (use QR code in image to apply). A #Botany360 informational session will then take place on Sept. 19th from 1-2pm ET on Zoom (register here: forms.gle/WRPwv92TVQDXza…) Botany360: botany.org/calendar/displ…

Chicago Botanic Garden crew is #Botany2024 bound! So excited to see y’all there soon

Make sure to catch all of the awesome talks and posters from Chicago Botanic Garden grad students this #Botany2024!

Had such a great time at #Botany2024!! Loved seeing all of the stellar talks and posters from Plant Biology and Conservation Program students and meeting new friends from around the world (including the best Air Bnb host ever, Giuseppe the Samoyed). See y’all next year!
