On #314Day, we’re proud to be in St. Louis—within a 500-mile radius of 50% of U.S. ag production, including 80% of corn and soybean—and part of a thriving #plantscience community, @39northstl.bsky.social. We look forward to welcoming our new president, @gilesoldroyd.bsky.social, to #STL this fall!

I'm excited to attend #PAG32 along with several Bayer Crop Science colleagues. Stop by our booth #318 to chat about Health for All, Hunger for None. I would love to chat about anything Eukaryotic genome assembly/annotation, gene regulation, and disease resistance.

Alex Harkess, former postdoc at the Danforth Plant Science Center, and current faculty at HudsonAlpha - opening the Plant Reproductive Genomics session at #PAG32.

This session historically, and intentionally empowers early career scientists (junior faculty, postdocs, students) to present.

@kcox-bioguy.bsky.social from @washu.bsky.social giving a #PAG32 talk on plant responses using duckweed as a model. #STL
Today at #PAG32, @kcox-bioguy.bsky.social used a great and unique analogy comparing spatial biology with LEGOs! Just like LEGOs, spatial biology involves assembling pieces to build a complete picture of life’s architecture.

Congrats to Toby Kellogg!
Yesterday the incredible Toby Kellogg received the Danforth Award for Plant Science. I got to learn a lot about science, discovery, and the power of “I don’t know.” Great remarks from the equally remarkable Becky Bart and Bethany Zolman

Great to host the International #Phytobiomes conference at the Danforth Center (in the #39North district) this week. Cheers to all who attended and presented - we look forward to seeing you in the district again!
