An excerpt from my remarks to the annual gathering of Cornell trustees & alumni from Oct. 23 as part of a plenary panel “Research at risk”. I stand by what I said. Cornell continues to fail its researchers. In light of this week’s news, I’m afraid the timing of this event was too convenient. (1/🧵)

Happy #FluorescenceFriday !!! First up: nuclei (cyan) and nucleic acids (yellow) just zooming through fungal hyphae!! In fungi there are thousands of nuclei per "cell" and they just zoom around!!! I honestly don’t know how they’re even alive they’re just so weird! This is pretty close to real time.
