It is hard to put into words what this moment means to me. I am stepping into a dream role where I get to support growers, advance plant health, mentor the next generation of translational plant pathologists, and contribute to NY agriculture through research and extension.
🚨 Big news! I am thrilled to share that I’ll be joining @CornellCALS this fall as a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Field Crop Pathology in the School of Integrative Plant Science! 🌽🫛🌾🐮 #NewPI #PlantPathology #LandGrantMission #Cornell #Extension #CornellSIPS

Tar spot on a corn leaf.
Southern rust on a corn leaf.
Graph showing probability of recovering the cost of a fungicide at various application costs and corn prices.
RESEARCH: 400+ corn foliar fungicide data points from the U.S. & Ontario for applications at V6, VT & a 2-pass program at V6+VT.
RESULT: A single DMI+QoI fungicide at VT was the best chance for a positive ROI.

A field day, saved from sunburn by thick clouds! We were out inoculating #wheat and #barley plots with Fusarium Head Blight and foliar pathogens. One of those days when the whole lab gets it done, many teammates not in the pictures! #AppliedWork #PlantPathology #PlantDisease

This is a closeup image of wheat plants in a disease trail nursery. There are yellow streaks on the otherwise healthy and green leaves caused by bacterial leaf streak
Tough day for small grains research in the Twin Cities. Myself and four scientist colleagues have all been let go from the USDA because we haven't completed our 3 year probationary period - effectively gutting the Cereal Disease Lab.
Taking a few days to be sad before I think about what comes next.
In US, MN ranks #1 in oats; #3 in spring wheat; #9 in barley. $380M in #wheat exports alone.
Scientists are needed to support farmers producing these crops!
What's the future of #agriculture if we dismantle #AgriculturalScience research?

Izzi! This is horrible. It feels like an attack not just on our institutions, but on the very heart of science. I’m thinking about you and the entire community.
