INTERNATIONAL SURVEY ON TREE OF LIFE
My PhD student Jocelyn Cheé-Santiago (Binnizá) is leading an online survey on scientific practices re: biodiversity, biocollections, conservation. If you work in these areas, we'd appreciate your insights. 10-15 mins. Details

As a scientist, I appreciate the effort in signage/marketing. But I also wish the coffee shop was at Gate 27 instead. (Or even 58 for atomic weight, or 2 or 3 for valence…)

I love my BIO498/598 Biological Data Policy, Ethics, and Governance students!! We just wrapped up some amazing discussions on ‘who should build data ethics frameworks’ and now intellectual property and law!
With permission, here is one group’s renderings on ‘who should share in IP’?

It was so great to speak with ~100 undergraduate students today as their keynote for the Pacific Northwest LSAMP Conference at Oregon State University! These students will go far in STEM! Thanks also for letting me cross off the 49th of 50 states visited. lsamp.oregonstate.edu/conference
