My company Silvec may have developed a treatment for Citrus Greening, a disease decimating citrus trees worldwide. Field trials supposed to start this year but funded USDA grant being held up. Who benefits from this? Not terminal Florida citrus industry. When is this madness going to end?

Nothing could be more important in the sciences than a diversity of thought. The same minds coming from the same educational paths will not magically create innovative advances. You need orthogonal ideas that stem from unique life experiences AND the tried and true. Can't get that without diversity.

When I was in Japan I took some ikebana (Japanese flower arrangement) lessons. I came back just before covid hit so, luckily for me, my sensei, Kayoko Kondo, started doing online lessons. I decided I will start sharing my monthly ikebana here. #ikebana
