I'll re- #introduction since a lot of new folks are arriving. I'm a 57-year old disabled Masters student in horticulture & agronomy. I've been doing work on carob for a decade, but in grad school I'm working on almond.

Most of my life was in arts & humanities and I have always had an interdisciplinary approach to things.

Interested esp in anti-ableism, accessibility (in hort, in cycling, etc), fruit breeding, podcasting and more. #botany #horticulture #PlantScience

Photo of me wearing an aloha lotería shirt I sewed myself as well as wearing a Rosie the Riveter bandana. I'm smiling while standing in front of the sign for the USDA National Clonal Germplasm Repository in Davis, California.

Thread 1/5: Since plagiarism's being discussed again, I wanted to give an example of just how much prestige higher ed institutions do not care about academic misconduct unless someone they actually care about is forcing them to pay attention to it.

A UC Davis PhD candidate was lead author on a paper that should have cited the UC Access Now Demandifesto at the very minimum. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N1 HCiHed7A6G2_e3-jPVKzYSPAiURVYM-unOfyI8UdQ/edit?usp=sharing '

I don't know if we have the reach here in the Fediverse that we used to have on Txitter (please boost for reach!), but this photo reminds me:

Send me your photos of packaged and homemade #carob food & drink. And recipes for how you're using carob in its native Mediterranean range! (map by Alex Baumel Thanks to Imran Nazar for transcription to alt text)
