Great write-up about a great person!
Over the next two weeks we'll be profiling nine plant scientists who have been elected this year to the National Academy of Science. Today we feature Elizabeth Ainsworth.

Really intriguing!
The functional role of RNA structure in miRNA-mediated RNA degradation!!! This is the first half of the story. The following story will come with shocking plant phenotypes. Thanks to the supports from miRNA experts @A_Carbonell_ ,Peter and Jiawei. academic.oup.com/nar/article…

Well, it finally happened. This #ICE International #StudentBan got me back into the “organizing effective lobbying action via twitter” game.
Want to make sure our lovely international students can keep their visas? Here’s how to do it:

Another new preprint from my group where @Madara_Dilhani teaches us about sorghum stem gene regulatory networks and how they diverge. Very cool stem biology!
Sorghum bicolor cultivars have divergent and dynamic gene regulatory networks that control the temporal expression of genes in stem tissue biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #biorxiv_sysbio
Check out our new preprint on causal gene-gene relationships between roots and shoots in the plant N response.

An #ILLINOIS professor discusses how to overcome our biases in the face of conflict.
"We have such a long way to go, but we should not despair and think that no progress has been made. Everyone needs to remember that these biases exist in all of us.”

Thanks for standing with all of us who are BLACK & recognizing that Black Lives Matter. I grew up in rural Kenya. Today, I am an entomologist & a food security advocate! It's tough to be a black woman scientist. Happy to celebrate our existence #BlackInNature #BlackLivesMatter
