On #314Day, we’re proud to be in St. Louis—within a 500-mile radius of 50% of U.S. ag production, including 80% of corn and soybean—and part of a thriving #plantscience community, @39northstl.bsky.social. We look forward to welcoming our new president, @gilesoldroyd.bsky.social, to #STL this fall!

I'm excited to attend #PAG32 along with several Bayer Crop Science colleagues. Stop by our booth #318 to chat about Health for All, Hunger for None. I would love to chat about anything Eukaryotic genome assembly/annotation, gene regulation, and disease resistance.

Alex Harkess, former postdoc at the Danforth Plant Science Center, and current faculty at HudsonAlpha - opening the Plant Reproductive Genomics session at #PAG32.

This session historically, and intentionally empowers early career scientists (junior faculty, postdocs, students) to present.
