What an amazing day hearing talks from my fellow third-year PhD students at today's @InstMolPlantSci symposium! Hearing about topics from Begonia leaf development to the chemistry of the cell wall. And to top it all off I won joint best presentation with @Lindsayplantsci !๐ฑ๐

Black ppl have historically had a relationship w/ plants (i.e. embodied knowledge) but there are few #BlackBotanists. This #BlackBotanistsWeek lets ask what's pushing #BlackBotanists out of academia?

What is #BlackBotanistsWeek? ๐ณ๐๐ผ
blackbotanistsweek.weebly.coโฆ
ALT White background with black writing. What is #BlackBotanistsWeek? Black Botanists Week is a celebration of Black people who love plants. This plant love manifests in many ways ranging from tropical field ecologist to plant geneticist, from horticulturalist to botanical illustrator. We embrace the multiple ways that Black people engage with and appreciate the global diversity of plant life.
