Here's another collection of links shared by people following @BotanyOne on Twitter. It's been another slim week, as understandably people's attention is elsewhere. This week's email has also been put together in much less time than usual as I had an unexpected opportunity to see my family for Christmas. If you're thinking that's an odd date for Christmas, that's one of the reasons it was unexpected.While the news is grim, there's a list of labs supporting Ukrainian scientists and it's proven so successful it's had to be moved to a Google spreadsheet to expand it. If you'd like to add to the list, there's a form here.That's not an option for everyone, but there is an opportunity to make the world better in another way. The Royal Society of Biology has funding available for plant health researchers to host paid studentships this summer. They're inviting proposals from researchers to host projects either in-person or remotely, with a deadline of 27 March 2022.I should be back the same time next week with more stories to share, unless I'm invited somewhere to celebrate New Year. In the meantime, take care.Alun (webmaster@botany.one)
