First copies of my book are here!! As a new faculty member, I realized that in addition to my research job, I also had a leadership job…and I wasn’t prepared for that.

This book is the guide I wish I’d had then, with the goal of helping others now.

New research shows that simply changing how a reaction vessel is positioned on a magnetic stirrer can significantly change a reaction's speed and product quality, influencing the reproducibility of results. #ChemSky #ScienceSky #EduSky
Position of flask on magnetic stirrers can drastically affect reproducibility of experiments
Comprehensive examination reveals improper siting of reaction vessels can affect catalyst formation, alter nanoparticle formation and change yields

Quick PSA: If you are planning a trip to Fairbanks this upcoming aurora season, the extra hours of darkness in Dec-Jan likely won't help you. In Fairbanks under quiet conditions, auroras usually don't start to appear until 9-10 pm.

I'm working on a quickstart guide for people who want to plant native plants, but don't know all the things to consider when choosing plants.

I think this is inherently challenging due to the absolute mountain of caveats that goes into doing this properly.

However.

Here's where we're at.
An infographic labeled "Should I buy this plant? a bug-approved guide" It takes you through the following line of questioning "1. Is it native: Look at the name of the plant here and see if it's native to your region. If no, Is it good at feeding bugs? Some non-native make lots of nectar. You can google if unsure. If yes, Are there better options available? if yes, don't buy it. If no, buy it. Ok, let's go back to the top. If it IS native, is it a cultivar? Does it have a goofy name like "Daisies jubilee" or "Pink Flamingo Hibiscus" It's a cultivar. If it's a cultivar, it'll send you to are there better options available? If it's not, on to question 3, which is "Was it grown with pesticides? This can be hard to tell. Check with the origin nursery. If yes, are there better options. If no, "Hell yeah". There are little flowers on a bunch of the boxes. The Hell Yeah box has a swallowtail butterfly with sunglasses giving a thumbs up. The no has a sassy bee looking over its sunglasses at you judgementally with its hand on its hips. On the bottom is says "Need help? Text questions to 9-RUNG-SQUID
