Fun morning at #NABT2025 poster session. Love telling the story of #FannyAngelinaHesse and the introduction of agar into the #MicrobialSciences. #SolidifyingHerLegacy @asm.org
Flags are up. Swag is out. Stage is set. It's time for TEDxMissouri S&T! Don't have your tickets yet? You can still get them at the door. Don't miss out! Missouri S&T
Thanks to colleagues at Missouri State for the invitation to talk about the great work of my students. An opportunity to reflect on exciting collaborations with colleagues from across campus. I need to do this more often!
Time for #SaturdayWalkDay. A few light sprinkles but a good morning to walk. Today's accompaniment was #RadioGoethe volume IV. #OldFartsWalking
Looking forward to visiting Missouri State University this afternoon for a seminar. If you're in the Springfield area stop by. 4:00 in Roy Blunt Hall 103. I hope my engineering colleagues appreciate the whimsical title that celebrates the fun of working with colleagues across disciplines :-).
Beware #ThePlague! Who will survive their #JourneyInTheTimeOfPlague? Pilgrimage? Trade Journey? Plague? Cholera? Nobody is safe. #MinersInTheMaking Missouri S&T, Missouri S&T College of Arts, Sciences, and Education, Missouri S&T Biology @asm.org
Busy week. Quick trip on Wednesday to #EastCentralCollege for recruiting transfer students. Demonstrated some #SynBio activities from NISE Network and showed off some #AgarArt. Missouri S&T Missouri S&T College of Arts, Sciences, and Education
Thanks to the Missouri S&T chapter of #SWE I got to talk to some prospective students about #SyntheticBiology. Sharing some fun activities and creating #AgarArt stay tuned to check out their masterpieces. Also got to hand out some of our cool new Missouri S&T Biology swag.
Forgot to post this last week. Had the honor of doing the coin toss for the Miner Sports #FacultyAndStaffAppreciationNight game against #UIndy. At halftime i got to join faculty and staff colleagues being recognized for supporting Missouri S&T #StudentAthletes.
It's #SaturdayWalkDay, #HereComesTheFlood edition. Made it out before the storms hit but will need to get out again later to get enough steps. #OldFartsWalking.
A beautiful day for #ZombieCroquet! It's #GameWeek for the Missouri S&T #HumansVsZombies and they took advantage of a gorgeous day and an expansive lawn to set up a fun and challenging croquet course. Of course I had to try it out and show them how to play the old school way.
Delighted to have the amazing @profsmyth.bsky.social as the keynote speaker for our @ASMicrobiology #MissouriBranch meeting in St Charles. Thanks to the Waksman Foundation for making her visit possible and Lindenwood University for hosting the meeting.
Yep. It's #SaturdayWalkDay 40th anniversary edition #IYKYK Today's accompaniment and inspiration is our daughter and the #SLSYO in honor of #NationalDaughtersDay earlier this week and the reopening of #PowellHall #OldFartsWalking
If you are attending #NABT in St Louis or #ASMCUE in San Antonio don't miss our posters on teaching about Fanny Hesse and other overlooked key figures in #STEM
It was an honor to get to share the story of #FannyHesse at #ASMicrobe and being on the exact day of the 175th anniversary of her birth was icing on the cake (agar in the Petri dish 😀?) Thanks to #Corrado_Nai and #CHOMA for the opportunity.

Had fun visiting with #MinersInTheMaking and doing activities about the spread of infectious disease and the importance of proper handwashing.
It's #SaturdayWalkDay #CelebrationOfNations style. Musical accompaniment by marching bands and inspiration from our amazing international student-athletes, students, faculty, and staff #MissouriS&T
