Congratulations @gracekessler22 💙🤍So proud of you + all of your success!
I’m honored to share that I was awarded an @NSF GRFP fellowship! I am endlessly grateful to the mentors, colleagues, and friends who helped me become the scientist I am today 💙
Pleased to share that this project from my PhD is now published in @NatureEcoEvo! Many thanks to my amazing supervisors @BallouxFrancois and @LucyvanDorp - I could not have done it without them. Link to paper -> nature.com/articles/s4155… (1)

As a former student in the lab, the #InternationalJusticeLab holds a special place in my heart (shoutout to @kelly_zvobgo for being a brilliant PI + mentor) I’m so grateful to those who have supported the lab and made applied undergrad research experiences accessible!

Fun analysis looking at how Covid-19 was (and was not!) reported in the DONs — and what that means for how we evaluate and use these data. ⚠️ Spoiler: not a complete record of global outbreaks!

The first step to predicting spillover risk like the weather is to have a million global weather stations. That's what we're hoping Pharos can be: a collaborative platform for One Health science, a monitoring system for wildlife health, and a resource for pandemic forecasting.

“The infectious disease trap of animal agriculture” is out in Science Advances. Outbreaks of “zoonotic” diseases that spillover from animals to humans are likely to increase, unless we can reduce demand for animal-based foods. 🧵 1/ science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
@9brandon @MajoHotzel I think you’re asking the right questions, which I don’t have good answers to. But you’ve effectively identified that we need to try strategies for meat reduction that skirt politicizing it. E.g. nudges and disruptive technology. And not every country stokes meat culture wars
Changing meat demand is the missing key to zoonotic disease resistance. Lessening our demand for animal foods reduces the pressure on both land clearing & animal confinement. I proposed that a 3-pronged approach is needed to reduce these zoonotic disease risks 19/

At the NDT, Jiyoon and his partner met another team from Kansas in quarters and the higher seeded team advanced, ending Jiyoon’s sophomore year. Great job Jiyoon! On the other side, Grace and her partner advanced over another Emory team to semis where they will face Michigan!
Washburn Rural alum Grace Kessler was also awarded the NDT’s top individual speaker award!! She is the first Jr Blue to accomplish that feat, although hopefully not the last. Her partner Shreyas was the 2nd individual speaker, so huge congrats to him as well!!
At the college National Debate Tournament, both of the Washburn Rural alum have advanced to quarterfinals and will represent the top 8 teams in the country in college debate!! Congrats to Grace, Jiyoon and their partners!!
