How can we adjust our #Scicomm strategy to be more effective in plant biology? Here's my latest at in Plant Physiology. ASPB academic.oup.com/plphys/article…

And so it begins. Trump is now threatening to strip Rosie O’Donnell of her U.S. citizenship because she’s “not in the best interests of our Great Country.” Remember when they mocked us for saying Trump is a wannabe dictator who will always put himself above the Constitution?

"Deployment of #transgenic or #GeneEdited crops is not limited by safety or utility. Instead, they are hindered by a lack of #social_license to implement technology, driven by concerns, many not based in reality,& some stoked by well-constructed #disinformation campaigns". #GMO

My latest in @aspb Plant Physiology explains how innovations move to application-- with communication. The public should be demanding more technology, so why are they concerned? An article about the needed strategy revision. #geneediting #GMO #scicomm academic.oup.com/plphys/article…

Check out my conversation with Kevin Folta …. We visit about genetically modified crops: what are they, how do they work, what's coming in the next few years, and why are they safe? open.spotify.com/episode/22fnJl…

Kevin Folta ASPB Kevin, your article hits the mark! Revamping communication strategies in gene editing can transform public acceptance. Keep bridging those gaps with your pioneering work!

🚨The American Academy of Pediatrics just sued HHS.gov and Robert F. Kennedy Jr for “endangering kids” by rejecting science on COVID boosters…Bold move from the same org that warned parents to avoid GMO food 🍎🌽—despite 30+ years and 3,000+ studies saying they're safe. More than 15 regulatory

My latest on Genetic Literacy Project with Jon Entine . We rely on the American Academy of Pediatrics for guidance on vaccines. But then they spread disinformation in other critical areas of science and technology. #GMO #glyphosate #vaccines geneticliteracyproject.org/2025/07/14/is-…

I invited the authors from the recent #glyphosate rat study to join me on the Talking Biotech Podcast. Anyone want to put odds that that they'll accept? Odds that they'll even respond? I say 0% and 0%. No discussion unless they control the venue.

Avian influenza is a legitimate threat, and while we have safe, effective vaccines, HHS has pulled funding away from national readiness. This may not end well. A grim reminder by Henry Miller, MS, MD Genetic Literacy Project facebook.com/share/1C5tCFmV…

The American Academy of Pediatrics is suing HHS for "ignoring science" on vaccines 🤔—while still peddling long-debunked myths about GMOs and glyphosate. Over 3,000+ studies reviewed by 15+ global agencies have found no risk from trace levels of glyphosate. And GMOs have been

Anyone using AI to look at designing new proteins from existing functional information? I have a cool project in mind using a unique resource and approach. Need a clever collaborator for the computational end. Writing proposals for $$. kfolta at ufl dot edu or DM
