On my way to Innsbruck (Austria) to visit Ilse Kramer and talk all about trees and climate change 🌳 BIFoR

We are looking for a new colleague :) Please, spread the word!

Very happy to highlight the research that we do in oak trees for this #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience 🌳 thanks Action Oak for the opportunity 👏👩🏻‍🔬

🚨NEW PAPER ALERT! We demonstrate priming of defence in oak seedlings with different elicitors. BABA is the most effective, could we use this approach in tree nurseries to protect young oaks from powdery mildew? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/pc… congratulations to all authors! 🌳BIFoR

📢New article alert! We wrote a commentary on the article by Bredow et al "Elevated CO₂: a double-edged sword for plant defence against pathogens" doi.org/10.1111/nph.70… Bredow et al: doi.org/10.1111/nph.20… Check them both out in the new issue of New Phytologist BIFoR

#EidMubarak to everyone that celebrates. This year, a few weeks ago, my group and I fasted for a day in support of the Muslims members. It was a fantastic but really tough experience. We learnt a lot about Ramadan and at 6.02 pm we celebrated our efforts with a lovely dinner 🥘

Mental Health Awareness Week and we had our now traditional Les Mills body combat classes! Thank you everyone that participated and the LES College for organising 👏

Where there is a tree Dr Estrella Luna-Diez is there! By day an incredible plant scientist and leader, by night (or lunch!) a body combat coach advocating all things physical and mental health 🌳💪🥼
