In a weird turn of events, I'm procrastinating cleaning the lab by working on a manuscript (it's usually the opposite)

By far my favorite paper this year. A collaboration between Mapuche elders—including Machi Patricia—and ecologists, reflecting on building trust and shared understanding in the face of environmental crisis. 🔗 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... 🧵

Very mild covid symptoms plus working outside without people = watering our plants!

Summer course grades entered from the airport en route home from #Botany2025, started importing and editing my four Canvas courses for Fall 2025 🤣

Hope everyone has smooth & safe travels home from #Botany2025 (we are not)

Terrible photos, but THAT'S MY SISTER!

So proud of these students - UWEC Biology let's go!

Lab sisters!

A few moments from the poster session at #Botany2025!

I'll be presenting my talk "Get Low: Evolutionary Transitions to Non-flying Mammal Pollination in Protea) at 4pm today Tuesday in Mesquite B at #Botany2025! Come learn about Protea in South Africa and what else changes when they species have different primary pollinators!
