After listening to Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer during @ESA_org #ESA2019 we at Jasper Ridge purchased five copies of her book #BraidingSweetgrass @Milkweed_Books for our community members to read, learn & enjoy! #IndigenousWisdom #ScientificKnowledge #TeachingofPlants

A great conference day at the #esa2019 comes to an end. Chaired 3 sessions on formal and informal caregiving together with Mareike Ariaans. It was a pleasure to listen the presenters who gave us valuable insights. 1/5

best session i‘ve ever been. honestly. #ESA2019

Spectacularly good topic right now in the Cultural Sociology Session: Wine! (unfortunately no tasting so far...) #ESA2019

@ESA_Sociology #ESA2019

.@ESA_Sociology been great so far. Just wish there was a bit more crap on the programme so I had time for dinner. #crisplife #ESA2019

Michele Lamont! Squeeeee! #ESA2019 @ESA_Sociology

So long Louisville and #ESA2019- thanks for a great week. In keeping with the spirit of this sign, @AmyZanne and I are optimistic that 4day meetings and 15min talks will make future meetings even better!

everyone interested in #emissions reductions should have a serious look at the work of @QUEST_RCN and the team of @RuthYanai. Here Ruth at #ESA2019 showing a clear message. https://x.com/QUEST_RCN/status/1161833411897692166

#ESA2019 Fifteen minutes until tree biogeography goodness!

I'll be sharing my PhD student Ben Seliger's at 3:40 pm in M112 (it's actually labeled "conference theater"). Are North American trees in equilibrium with climate today? Have they been in the last 21,000 years? What does this mean in a warming world? Find out! #ESA2019

So much cool plant ecology being presented at #ESA2019! Sad not to be there, but glad I can follow via Twitter 🍀

Fellow scientists: what’s your favorite, least-cited paper that you wish more people would read? Post a link in your reply, with a comment about why you think it’s important. #ESA2019

@LizzWaring was inspired to become botanist by Ellie Sattler in Jurassic Park: “botanists save the other scientists from getting killed.” #ESA2019

Come and check out the plant love stories we’re sharing in M108, happening now! I’ll be talking about pollen! #ESA2019 And follow @PlantLoveStory for stories, poems, art, essays, and odes to the plants we love and love to hate.

How do you feel about a $60 abstract fee (posters are free; fees will support recordings for talks for remote participation) for future @ESA_org meetings? Is your section talking about it during your business meetings this week? #ESA2019

Happy to finally see the paperback of this book that Lew Ziska and I edited come out at #ESA2019! Chapters by @CascadeJBS @DrBruceWebber @plant_invader and many other great invasion biologists not on Twitter. @CABI_Invasives

#ESA2019 Improv skills have been some of the most useful tools for improving my science communication (do "improv and improve" have the same roots? They must!). Come join @drsrbayer and me at 11:30 am TODAY in M111 to give it a try. No experience necessary. Bring a lunch!

Congratulations to @iceageecologist, new @ESA_org Fellow! #ESA2019

Things I’m excited to see at #ESA2019: so many professional development/services sessions (e.g., legal counsel, bystander training), pronoun stickers, language buttons, early career mentoring, career center. What about you? What would you like to see?

#ESA2019 food pro-tips: 1) the cafe in the Galt House Hotel has eggs/ham/cheese flatbread sandwiches that are basically two complete sandwiches for $6.50. 2) Addis (Ethiopian), a minute’s walk, has lots of vegan options!

Steve Jackson: The last 60,000 years show plant communities in the southeast US were sensitive to climate—evidence of abrupt change and high turnover. They also accommodated a lot of northern plants during glacial conditions. Yet endemism is high, suggesting resilience. #ESA2019

Stuart Pimm: The US is not protecting its biodiversity well; most is in the American southeast, but most protected areas are in the west and northeast. Cold/dry places, and places with $. Poor people live where the most species are: Appalachia, the sourtheast. #ESA2019

If you’re missing @sherrymarts’ bystander intervention training workshop, there’s a second session on Tuesday. It’s great! #ESA2019

Just once, I’d love to be in a workshop about bystander intervention, harassment, or improving gender diversity where the audience isn’t a majority women. I guess I need to start bringing men with me? #ESA2019

Hi #ESA2019 friends! Sorry I can’t make it to this year’s meeting, but let me know if your department or agency needs some #SciComm public science engagement training, or if you’re looking for seminar speakers!

Interested in how trees, microbes & soils respond to global env. change? My lab is recruiting PhD students for fall 2020. DM me if you want to chat at #ESA2019. @IUBiology is a part of #GRExit

After a failed attempt yesterday, I’m now on my way to #ESA2019 in Louisville!

I’m honored to have been elected to serve as Member-at-Large for the @ESA_org Governing Board! I look forward to representing our membership and working towards an inclusive, dynamic, and strong society. #ESA2019

After celebrating our second pride parade of the summer, there’s no better time to say that I won’t be attending #esa2019
