Totally agree. More please! 🤩

My favorite moment at #NoKingsDay #NoKings #NoKingsTampa #Tampa yesterday.
My awesome kids as we’re driving through the demonstration down Kennedy Blvd! 🥰🥰🥰

Tampa Bay residents gather in 1,000s at ‘No Kings’ protests across region Protesters in Pinellas and Hillsborough counties chant and stand in solidarity for the rally tied to hundreds more happening in cities across the nation.

So proud of my Tampa protesters!
#NoKings 🎉

The mood on this sunny afternoon remained upbeat, with homemade signs, music, & even a drum circle. Families with children in strollers & older adults were among the crowds.

It was great! 🎉💙

I’m so proud of Tampa. It was so fun and twice the size of Hands Off. I had a really hard time getting shots that reflected the crowd size, but here are a few…

Our trip to Isla de Sálvora, Galicia was awesome! Thanks so much for organizing it 💖

congrats! I still haven't published the last chapter of my dissertation 😅

If you're not convinced that Donald Trump is undermining our democracy, watch the video of what happened today to Senator Alex Padilla.

In my time in the Senate I've never seen a Senator treated this way. @padilla.senate.gov is carrying out his constitutional responsibility to conduct oversight and defend the people he represents. Absolutely shocking and disgusting way to handle a sitting member of Congress.

Our latest paper on Spartina: fungal interactions!

That's awesome!

Impressive new work from Javier Puy! 🤩 #sibecol @sibecol-aeet-25.bsky.social

Cool new Fragaria work with mycorrhiza manipulations @sibecol-aeet-25.bsky.social from @vtec.bsky.social

Super cool transcriptimics and experimental results from @igmestre.bsky.social @sibecol-aeet-25.bsky.social #sibecolIII

Yes! For diversity efforts

Local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity in two forest understorey herbs in response to forest management intensity This study explores how forest management, and the underlying environmental variables impacts local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity in two understorey

📢 New publication!!
Recently, I finally got to publish the last chapter from my PhD 🌿
We used a reciprocal transplant along a gradient of forest management intensity to study local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity - read more below:

This is why we need sequence data and more coverage of the full genome. There is much more going on than just methylation changes within individuals. Markers are super limited.

Prepping for the cocktail party.

NCA6 Update April 28, 2025 Dear NCA6 Participants, Thank you for your participation in the 6th National Climate Assessment. At this time, the scope of the NCA6 is currently being reevaluated in accordance with the Global Change Research Act of 1990. We are now releasing all current assessment participants from their roles. As plans develop for the assessment, there may be future opportunities to contribute or engage. Thank you for your service.

Well, it's official. We just received notice that all authors on the Sixth National Climate Assessment have just been released from their roles.

The NCA is a vital, Congressionally mandated resource for our nation as we prepare for the impacts of climate change. This is a huge loss.
