We've been lucky this summer to have Eleiezer Majambare in our lab as a Plant Genome REU student. Today he presented work with his mentor @derekdenney.bsky.social to look for selection on flowering time genes in Chamaecrista fasciculata!!

Ironically having a day of some of my favorite things in the US -- taking an Amtrak train through snowy fields, eating a wonderful sandwich, appreciating some Chicago architecture, catching up w/ a friend (@tylervkent.bsky.social), & now another train to visit a great public university.

Look at this most adorable little Capsella who apparently had 3 cotyledons and now has 6 little tiny leaves 😍 Found by @chenley.bsky.social who is studying how heat affects floral development.

One of my favorite Christmas traditions is watering the lab's plants. I'm Jewish and not going anywhere, so I'm happy to help my hardworking labbies take a break. Plus, this year I got to learn to use our fun new repeater pipette for controlled watering 😁
