Lucky enough to get some shine at the @rankprize.bsky.social symposium in Ullswater. Lovely to be here and discuss millets with plenty excellent scientists, and @ettorericcucci.bsky.social and Giorgia showcasing the teff pangenome

We mourn the passing of our Editor-in-Chief Steve Long. His vision to establish one of the first journals dedicated to Global Change over 30 years ago was truly ahead of its time. Through GCB, researchers have demonstrated that biology and ecosystems are not simply victims of global change..
