Excited to share our most recent work in collaboration with @liedcarneiro.bsky.social . We link network properties with estimates of pollination success. Check it out!

🎉We invite you to meet Liedson Tavares Carneiro author of the recently published article doi.org/g9v97c and researcher at East Tennessee State University. Get to know him and his passion for plant–pollinator interactions🧵

These stories make me proud to work in science, and sad for the future. For every shiny big facility and high-profile research program, there's thousands of unsung scientists working tirelessly on a subject they're deeply passionate about (with a research budget of < $15,000) 🧪 wapo.st/4n9dpVn

Excited to share our paper in @pnas.org with Aldo Compagnoni and Tom Miller !
Climate change may push dioecious plants toward female-biased sex ratios which will impair seed production. Ignoring this feedback underestimates range shifts. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Hot off the presses and so so thrilled. Thanks to @inaturalist.bsky.social + computer vision we found something beautifully simple: Red and orange flowers bloom later than all the other colors in the eastern United States. Paper here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1kwzh3QW8S...

With spring arriving, it's tempting to begin working on our yards and gardens. But hold on!

Clearing debris & trimming plants too soon can actually harm bees, butterflies, & other important pollinators!

From ‘Envy, inequality and fertility’ to ‘Market size, trade and productivity’, using catchy three-part phrases in the titles of research papers can boost their citations, suggests a study.

Start the day with a visual story and beautiful photos from Heather Holm about bees that collect pollen from just a few native plants. storymaps.com/stories/077b...

Here are some nice mushrooms

Science is necessary, but clearly not sufficient, for conveying the climate crisis

There isn't "one weird trick" to getting people to care about bugs & science, but @bug-gwen.bsky.social has the next best thing: genuinely thoughtful advice based on years of experience! Join us to learn!

Rest is not “doing nothing.” Rest is literally how your body repairs itself. You wouldn’t yell at your phone for needing to be plugged in. You are allowed to recharge your existence.

I loooove @inaturalist.bsky.social and this is a big reason why. They’re instrumental in research and it’s so fun to know that when you go on the app you’re contributing to this knowledge base.
