S1E2: Normalizing Nomenclature and The Idealism of Youth with Carolyn Lawrence-Dill
In this episode, Ivan and Liz talk with Carolyn Lawrence-Dill, an Associate Professor of Genetics, Development and Cell Biology as well as Agronomy at Iowa State University. We discuss a paper from her grad school days that has a great back story about how to bring a large number of people together to agree on a common system of nomenclature. It turns out that it\u2019s both important and challenging to do and we had a great conversation touching on egos, politics and grad student projects. \n\nRead more about this episode: https://plantae.org/blog/taproot-podcast-s1e2-normalizing-nomenclature-and-the-idealism-of-youth-with-carolyn-lawrence-dill/\n\nSHOW NOTES:\n\nLawrence et al., 2004 http://jcb.rupress.org/content/167/1/19.long\nMaize GDB https://www.maizegdb.org\nCarolyn\u2019s website https://dill-picl.org\nRon Vale shows animation of kinesin walking (start at 25:00)\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RUHJhskW00\n\n@IAcornflake\n@ehaswell\n@BaxterTWI\n\ntaproot@plantae.org
