Found a very sad four leaf clover on my rhizobium-free plants today! Does this bode for good or bad luck for my experiment?! 🤷🏼 #rhizobia #microbiome #plants

Johnny here! They/he. I am an evolutionary + chemical ecologist passionate about #regenerativeag & how microbes interact with one another & their hosts. Outside of work, I like to crochet, cross-stitch, and go to OrangeTheory. #queerinstem photos of me + corn & fiancé in cave!

What a beautiful share from my favorite, the wonderful @_bug4bug_ for #TransDayOfVisability
On #TransDayOfVisibility, ESA celebrates contributions of transgender scientists to entomology and affirms our commitment to a safe, welcoming professional community. #EntoDEI Learn more in this 2023 Q&A w/ a trans entomologist in Communications Biology: nature.com/articles/s42003-0…

Happy #TransgenderDayofVisibility! Take a moment to be proud of yourself and the trans people in your life. (1/2)
I’m excited to announce I recently started as a Data Scientist @Bayer4CropsUS! Doing similar stuff as before - trying to understand how we can improve agriculture with some helpful microbes! I’m so greatful for the time I spent with @jaytlennon as a postdoc and with @GEMS_BII!
Keep on the look out! I have some exciting work to share in the rhizobia space with @jaytlennon and @GEMS_BII in the near future!

Two LSU graduate students were shot while in town for the South Eastern branch of the Entomological Society of America. It was random act of gun violence. Plz consider donating and sharing posts to support them dealing with financial and emotional strains. gofundme.com/f/lsu-graduate-…

Great job @emmi_a_mueller !
A shout out to IU biology professor Jay Lennon and grad student Emmi Mueller for developing a way to better understand the gut microbiome. How did they do it? Read: go.iu.edu/5L9j @IUCollege

What can we learn from timing the onset of symbiosis? And how does symbiont acquisition & molecular evolution impact host adaptation & diversification?
We ask these questions of leaf beetles, led by @MarlenyGarciaL1 & out today in @CurrentBiology!
