Very happy to share this royalsociety.org/news/2023/10/g… policy briefing on the need for proportionate regulation of crops improved using the GM method, prepared over last 6 months with Jonny Hazell of The Royal Society and with the help of many Fellows and others.

good to hear Jonathan D G Jones on Farming Today bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0… explaining the need for proportionate regulation of the GM method for crop improvement

I'm co-author of a new report which looks at the economic opportunity costs of saying no to science, specifically on 'new genomic techniques'. For the EU it's as much as €3 trillion per decade. Who knew that being anti-science could be so expensive? allianceforscience.org/blog/2023/10/n…

I authored a new report on the potential impact of EU restrictions on New Genomic Techniques (NGTs)! with Mark Lynas Alliance for Science Dan Rejto 🇺🇸🌎🍴 and Chris Gambino ☕️ Available for download here: thebreakthrough.org/issues/food-ag…

📖 A new chapter begins! 🎉 Beyond excited to be joining the vibrant community @CEAT_Hub ANU Division of Plant Sciences to harness the latest science to build the crops of the future. 💡 If you want to work together, discuss, debate or test new ideas please get in touch!

With a bit of synthetic biology and classical genetics, I transformed the unremarkable Arabidopsis flower into a beautiful pink rose 🌹🧬 with Stefano Bencivenga. (A thread 🧵)

i think you’ll find three blight resistance genes are involved

The future comes to your back yard! Norfolk Plant Sciences is making available its USDA- and FDA-approved purple tomato lines for home growers in the US! supplies are limited so don't delay if you'd like to plant some in 2024 NorfolkPlantSciences norfolkhealthyproduce.com/products

The most recent #GMO plant should have been the first genetically engineered plant. Meet the high purple pigment tomato-- loaded with anthocyanins throughout the flesh. Gorgeous color, maybe health benefits too. Seeds are finally available. norfolkhealthyproduce.com/products

It is the first-of-its-kind, GM food crop, marketed directly to home gardeners. But what makes this tomato purple? Anthocyanin, a health-promoting compound, was ingeniously introduced into the plant through color genes from a snapdragon flower. medriva.com/nutrition/the-…

Thank you for your purchase. You will definitely love them #PurpleTomatoes

Look what got planted today!! Yay to ⁦NorfolkPlantSciences⁩ for hitting this milestone!!

Kenneth Clark lamented that civilization was a fragile thing. He observed three “enemies” that could topple even the mightiest cultures—what are they?🧵

What a thread. #MustRead #PlantPathology #StructuralBiology 👇

Our manuscript, which describes a negative regulator of autophagy and immune-related secretion, is out! It features a direct physical interaction between autophagy and vesicle transport, as predicted and visualized by AlphaFold-Multimer. Great teamwork with Yasin Dagdas lab

outstanding news!

Great thread on the upheaval underway at HHS now that the pseudoscience anti-vaxxer grifter has taken over

Thank you America, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. Thank you President Donald J. Trump, Congress, and the American people. Ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that.

Sickening & shocking to see Donald Trump insulting, humiliating & bullying President Zelensky of Ukraine, who has led his country’s brave & inspiring defence of democracy against the evil Kremlin war machine. Only winners from this are the Kremlin & the West’s enemies.

Science must be at the center of Africa’s development agenda—there is no other path allianceforscience.org/blog/2025/03/p…
