“…some bodies are ‘in an instant,’ judged as suspicious or as dangerous, as objects to be feared, a judgment that can have lethal consequences. There can be nothing more dangerous to a body than a social agreement that that body is dangerous.” — Sara Ahmed, "Making Strangers"

Will do!!

Count me in!

Love this! Would appreciate the add!

💫 Huge thanks to @insidenatgeo for supporting our research through the #2019NationalGeographicExplorer grant! Funding from visionary organizations like @insidenatgeo makes it possible for us to deepen our understanding of #Brassica diversity and resilience.🌍🙏 (9/9)

🇮🇹 Finishing up in Palermo with @jchrispires.bsky.social and @alexmcalvay.bsky.social ! We found B. rupestris in rocky areas, while a ferry and bike journey took us to a nearby island to locate B. macrocarpa. 🚗🚲🚢 These plants offer crucial insights into the evolutionary pathways of Brassica! 🥦 (8/9)

🇮🇹 Next stop: Sicily! In Catania, we had the privilege of spending time with Dr. Ferdinando Branca and his fantastic team. A world-class Brassica expert, Branca shared invaluable insights as we explored B. incana populations together. (Vespa spotting with a Brassica!) #Brassica (7/9)

🚗🌿 In Naples, Dr. Giovanni Scopece and his team gave us an incredible tour of B. incana populations, going above and beyond to show us these unique sites. Truly grateful for their kindness and expertise! (Check out our journey!) #FieldBotany #Collaboration (6/9)

🐐 Tough terrain may be key to B. cretica survival in Crete—likely safe from hungry goats! It’s amazing how plants adapt to their environment in ways we’re only beginning to understand. #EvolutionaryBiology (5/9)

We connected with Dr. Panagiotis Sarris and his dedicated team in Crete, who are doing amazing work on the B. cretica genome🧬 doi.org/10.1186/s128.... Collaborations like these deepen our understanding of plant diversity and resilience. 🌍#Genomics #Botany (4/9)

🚗🌿 In Crete, we found B. cretica thriving in the most unexpected places, from roadsides to steep cliffs (Check out the cliffs where we found them!). Some populations seem to survive by growing in areas too rugged for goats to reach. Fieldwork always has its surprises! #Botany (3/9)

🌍 Recently, @youngeukaryote.bsky.social and I journeyed to Crete to study Brassica cretica, a close relative of B. oleracea 🥦—and what a trip it was! First stop: the herbarium, where local experts helped us pinpoint key field sites. (2/9)

Absolutely! My high school in South Florida had an Everglades Restoration and Environmental Science Magnet program. Made high school exciting and connected me with some amazing mentors who convinced me that I could make researching plants a part of my life.
