Please join Dolf and me for a very exciting phd project, in a fun and stimulating environment! Please RT

Join the #GreenTE consortium to study the fascinating topic of mechanosensing in plants. In this PhD project the role of force and mechanosensing in plant immunity will be the subject of research, in collaboration with the lab of Joris Sprakel at WUR. uu.nl/en/organisatio…

#PPRM2024 Call for abstracts 📢📢📢 You still have 5 days to submit your abstract pprm2024.nl Don't miss the deadline--> July 26th! See you in Wageningen!

Please join us! One PhD student and one postdoc on the mathematical and computational modeling of plant mechanobiology as part of the @greente_science consortium. See mathbioleiden.nl/vacancies.html and green-te.nl for more information. Please RT - thanks :-)

Our new publication is out in @newphytologist ! doi.org/10.1111/nph.20… Together with green mechanobiology we addressed the question whether a necrotrophic pathogen (killing its host) needs to build up turgor pressure for infection. A summary:

For a tutorial-style paper on fungal pathogen penetration biology we are looking for someone to make two illustrations, on relatively short notice (deadline mid October). Does anyone know of an illustrator with a good feel for biology that would be up for a small job?

Are you a computational scientist interested in studying how plant tissues respond to mechanical forces? Then don't miss this opportunity!

Excited to share that I have been awarded a VICI grant of the dutch science foundation; looking forward to a new 5y research program into the molecular basis of touch perception in fungi #fungi #mechanobiology Wageningen UR @greente_science nwo.nl/en/news/43-sci…
