#Botany2025 was a blast! So much cool botanical science to learn from.
Also, very happy to present our work on the genetics of Saguaro 🌵
Looking forward to the next one!

🌵🔥 Are cacti going to survive climate change? If you're attending #Botany2025, you are kindly invited to hear our work on the genomic basis of climate adaptation in the Saguaro cactus

The game has raised wide interest in institutions in North America. We hope Gene Bingo! keeps growing and extending to more kids from around the world!

You can bring evolution to younger minds around you too! Materials and more info are openly available at sites.google.com/view/genebingo/

Gene Bingo! Introduces key concepts like allele and population while having fun competing with their fellows!
Though a surprising and engaging narrative, Gene Bingo! Teaches the four main mechanisms of evolution: Mutation, migration, genetic drift and natural selection

Want to teach kids how evolution works? 🧒🏽🧒
With @eseb.bsky.social's generous support, my fellow Tate Yawitz and I have designed "Gene Bingo!" 🧬🎱
A fun game that has convinced many kids in the US and Mexico that evolution is important and cool!
