Enjoying lunch? When you’re done, make sure to come enjoy Ecophys part II in San Pedro I this afternoon! Starting at 1:30 pm Ecophys part I this morning was packed! #bsaecophys #botany2026
Don’t forget about the #bsaecophys business meeting today at noon in Tucson Ballroom E. We will be talking about future plans for the section and also volunteer opportunities which are a great way to get involved. Hope to see you there! #botany2026
Morning #Botany2026 - come check out a whole set of talks from the lab this morning in Ecophys! Tropical plants, temperate friends, epiphytes, and aquatics - we have it all. Our Belonging in Botany: fostering resiliency discussion is happening from 11-12 today, too. See you there! #dampmuffins
Ecophys part 1 starts today at 8:00 am in San Pedro I. See you there! 🫡 #bsaecophys #botany2026
Reminder we have a Colloquium today on Non-foliar gas exchange starting at 8:00 ! It will be in San Xavier. See you there! #bsaecophys #botany2026
Join the Phys Ecophys or if you like acronyms the PEP section (we love our carboxylases) tonight at the All Society Mixer. #Botany2026 Find us by the tables near LICOR and the DEI tables!
PEACCH Lab presentations at #Botany2026 this week. I'll be giving a talk about dioecious mismatch in northern spicebush on Monday right before lunch and Liz Howe will be giving a talk on spring wildflower ecophysiology on Wednesday at 8!

Who’s excited for our #bsaecophys workshop tomorrow at #Botany2026 ? There are still a few spots open if there are still folks interested!
We will also have two special sessions! A workshop Sunday August 2, 1:30 to 5:30 pm Measuring Gas Exchange from Non-planar and Unusual Sample Materials And a Colloquium Monday August 3, 8:00 am to noon Non-foliar gas exchange: mechanisms and implications for a changing world #bsaecophys
Also on the topic of ecophys - there are still spots in our LiCor workshop on Sunday afternoon! We just got off a planning call, it's going to be awesome! Come learn all about how to measure and troubleshoot weird stuff (i.e., not corn leaves). #Botany2026

Leaf size is an important trait shaping species distributions globally. We looked at how climate and evolutionary history influence leaf size in conifers! Spoiler: lots of evolutionary conservatism! Check out our paper in @globalchangebio.bsky.social out now: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
Leaf Size in Conifers: Global Associations With Climate and Evolutionary History
Global patterns in leaf size are linked to climatic trade-offs, so we explore these relationships in a major group of plants, the conifers. Using contemporary phylogenetic methods, we show that conif....

As we gear up for #botany2026, we are looking for judges for the student presentations in the Physiology and Ecophysiology section. If you will be at the meeting and are willing to judge a few posters and talks, please contact: Brian Maricle bmaricle@svsu.edu #BSA #BSAEcophys
It was an amazing week hosting Wray Jones and Kyra Dimitropolis at @wakeforest.bsky.social. They visited my lab to dive into the math, theory, and measurement of plant hydraulics to support their graduate work. 🌿💧📈 #WakeBotany #PlantHydraulics #ferns #cycads
Excited to share that I will be joining Florida State University as an Assistant Professor starting in January 2027! I’m thrilled to build my lab at FSU in the Ecology & Evolution Division within the Department of Biological Science — stay tuned! A huge thank you to my village for all the support!
Someone in the news departments of @nature.com or @science.org needs to take a look at this--its a huge scandal from the scientific supplier that has become a monopoly
Earlier this week I posted an example of a fake western blot provided by ThermoFisher to demonstrate the validity of a p53 antibody. I considered it an amusing curiosity. In fact Thermo Fisher Scientific has systematically manipulated antibody validation data!

Anyone ever carried a Licor into the US as personal baggage on an airline? If so, any recommendations?
