    Also, let me address a couple questions I've gotten: 1. You don't have to have previous research in Hawaiian/Pacific or even Tropical systems. 2. We are looking for a "botanist", but research on e.g. plant-animal interact is 👌 3. Marine botany very welcome, but not necessary.

  17. This is awesome. I was literally just talking about this with my students as they were preparing their final presentations. Communication. Science and otherwise. It's all about human connection and empathy.

    Sharon was a close friend of mine during my postdoc. She was a wonderful human being. Help her memory live on by sharing this award and encouraging folks to apply! She would love that her life is remembered by helping early career women in science. Sharon, we miss you dude.
