We're hiring a plant pathologist! Looking for someone w/passion for diagnosing vegetable diseases & communicating results to clients. There's lots of other duties & opportunities. I also think it's a great lab 🤔☺️

Sad news. John McDowell has passed away. He was not only a brilliant scientist, he was one of the kindest people I have ever met. He worked hard, did a tremendous job in plant pathology and was a wonderful colleague. He is gone way too soon.

Dear PIs: Don't work on weekends & holidays.

And if you do, don't brag about it.

It's NOT cool. It reflects a bad set of values that promote unhealthy work-balance practices in the team you lead.

You're an example for your students and colleagues, live up to it.

We had the PSI and our lab’s holiday parties. It was a fun and productive year and I am grateful for everyone in my lab, they are a wonderful team in every way. If we don’t catch you before the year ends, the Giant Lab Pickle and the lab wish you very happy holidays! @kellyam24.bsky.social

It was really great to spend quite a bit of time with Dr. Peter Oudemans from Rutgers University at GLEXPO 2024, it was also nice to hear of all of the #blueberry #diseases he helps manage in New Jersey. #bluedynamo🫐
