Dr. Catrina Adams, Botanical Society of America Director of Education, steps up last minute to give our plenary address. YOU are a role model and absolute icon! Thanks for this, and for all you've done to get PlantingScience K-12 outreach to 20 years! Here's to the next 20! #Botany2025

Single biggest clutch performance in my 23 years of Botany meetings. Finds out 20 minutes before the start time that she is stepping in … and KILLS it. Well done, Catrina!

I am excited to welcome #Botany2025 to my big backyard in the California desert. I kicked off the conference with a field trip up the Palm Springs tramway to explore the beautiful flora of the San Jacinto Mountains. I hope everyone enjoys Palm Springs!

“For example, if a $50,000 student loan balance is discharged, and the balance is taxed at an effective rate of 25%, that could result in a tax bill of over $12,000, due all at once. This could be particularly problematic for medically disabled borrowers…given their inability to work.”

Very happy to see the work from my postdoc with @plantpollinator.bsky.social finally out! We explored floral color shifts in two monkeyflower species across floral traits, gene expression, and pollinator responses to understand early stages of floral divergence: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
