Me in the lab space and growth chambers I run. I like the 365-day a year perfect corn growing room when it gets late in the year. #Lgbt #STEM #PlantScience #GradSchool #GayFarmer

This awful news. In this just-published open access paper I argue we need MORE information about farm labor, not less.
Coupled with the recent USDA decision to do away with the Socially Disadvantaged farmers category, the result is we will know less about critical and vulnerable ag stakeholders.

Remembering a fun interview with Laur from Plants in Jars where I get a chance to explain the core thesis of Flowers For Everyone and various aspects of my biology practice. I love her channel and highly recommend following her work.

Breaking News: The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration could for now cancel NIH grants that the government said were related to diversity.
Supreme Court Lets Trump Administration Cut N.I.H. Grants for Disfavored Research
The court’s order was fractured, with the justices splitting over whether individual cancellations and the policy behind them could be challenged in a federal trial court.

NSF is planning to cut the number of people doing science by roughly 75%.
From over 300k to less than 100k. A picture of smaller, reduced science.

Today, we received notice that our team’s last remaining NSF grant was terminated. For the first time since 2009, when I received an NSF Fellowship for Graduate Research, I have no active NSF grants.

“Johns Hopkins has bet very heavily on a century and a quarter of partnership with the federal government. If the federal government decides it doesn’t want to know things anymore, that would be bad for Johns Hopkins and devastating for Maryland.”
The largest private employer in Baltimore just lost $800 million in federal contracts and grants. This recession is going to be a doozy.
Johns Hopkins Plans Staff Layoffs After $800 Million Grant Cuts
