This beautiful native Peperomia hanging out front of our apartment always makes me smile! This was grown from a tiny cutting, a gift from the lovely Sharon and Russell at Limpinwood Garden Nursery.

🔎🌿🟡 March iNaturalist NZ — Mātaki Taiao report: 185 observations and the highest number of infections reported this season. Luckily, we're likely to see fewer infections as the weather cools. #MyrtaceaeMonday bit.ly/3q0f7eN

In our complex and ever-changing world, deeply collaborative science is critical to reflect the diversity of people, challenges, environments and industries. Come join us at #EAPS2023 to celebrate the beauty of interdisciplinary molecular biology! More @ eaps.org.au!

Great opportunity from QAAFI Student Association! These afternoons are always a great way to get some inspiration on possible next steps!

(1/5) 🧪🧫🧬 EAPS 2023 is here! In our complex and ever-changing world, deeply collaborative science is critical to reflect the diversity of people, challenges, environments and industries. So this year, EAPS 2023 is 'moving forward through collaboration'!

🥳 We're excited to see the winner of the 2023 Plant Health TV contest next week! 🥳

Bec Degnan sharing amazing work on how use of dsRNA treatments can prevent severe #MyrtleRust symptoms when applied both pre-infection and post-infection! These early findings have implications for ex situ collections of rust affected spp. 👏 #AMRC2023

Congratulations to PhD student Zeinab Sweidan for her winning entry in the #plantheathTV video youtube.com/watch?v=h1oSHs… Plant Health Student Network #PlantHealthDay 🥇🎥🌱🌳

#OnThisDay in 1903, Marie Skłodowska Curie defended her doctoral thesis on radioactive substances at Université de la Sorbonne in Paris – becoming the first woman in France to receive a doctoral degree in physics.

The #myrtlerust community is deeply collaborative and supportive one - and that is exactly what will be needed to save our endemic Myrtaceae species in Aoteoroa and Aus. Feeling incredibly grateful and freshly inspired after a successful #AMRC2023
