As a scientist I've had an "elevator speech" prepared for a few years now. This year I made an "elevator video" & let me tell you: people enjoy seeing my research way more than just hearing about it! So what do #beavers have to do with #wildfire? Watch (with sound) & find out!

PhyloPic 2.0 is getting very close to ready for beta launch! I thought I'd share some screenshots of the site in development. Here's the new home page:

Our October issue looks at making science—and scientific spaces—more accessible to deaf individuals #DeafInSTEM The cover: a new sign for 'crystal' developed by deaf scientists for possible use by the American Sign Language community. Quantum ASL video: go.nature.com/46zfJMb

Cover is inspired by a Viewpoint [👉rdcu.be/dnJWz👈] on expanding ASL for scientific contexts by Colin Lualdi, Barbara Spiecker (Barbara Spiecker), Alicia Wooten (Alicia Wooten) & Kaitlyn Clark! New conceptually & linguistically accurate signs for 💨states of matter💧:

Both Barbara Spiecker and I presented our work on optimizing environmental monitoring programs at a recent Great Bay NERR meeting youtu.be/o-aqhC1kPfY?si… and youtu.be/tjTP4gkLAuo?si…

#Rstats pkg CatterPlots, just in case you needed to make a scatterplot with cat-shaped points. github.com/Gibbsdavidl/Ca…

Research funds from the gov't allows us to explore the first steps that are essential for future commercialization bit.ly/2nr3qx2

A great demonstration of why we need to plot the data and never trust statistics tables! autodeskresearch.com/publications/s…

As eclipse mania demonstrates, we embrace & act on predictions from science -- except when it comes to climate... nyti.ms/2vLQxne

So excited about the all new SeaweedSorter app!! The fabulous Dr. Patrick Martone just released The Seaweed Sorter app for iPhone, which helps users identify more than 100 species of NE Pacific seaweeds (and counting). itunes.apple.com/us/app/seaweed…

It is critical to remember, in the face of ignorance by climate change deniers, that warm Pacific ocean waters push the #PolarVortex down upon us, making it cold here. So #GlobalWarming causes these frigid US temperatures. Read some of the science: climatechange.cornell.edu/regional-extre…
