Today I had the chance to visit NCRPIS in Ames that maintains an incredible collection of maize germplasm from the US and other places! Looking forward to exciting collaborations and research

Today, we enjoyed some BBQ for lunch with the members of my small but growing lab. Carter 🇺🇸 has been an amazing undergrad helping with research and lab and colonies maintenance, and Hia 🇮🇳 is a rising PhD student rotating in my lab with the option to stay.

Shifting to this platform from X, and now gotta post something. Sharing some pics of some cool but problematic pests in Iowa. Love the soybean aphid crew photo
