THANK YOU to all inspiring women in Plant Biology who have been instrumental in shaping my research career. I could not have been here without their mentorship, guidance and support! My list is endless… Extremely humbled to be an inspiration to someone. No pressure 🤓

At the SPPS2024 conference in Copenhagen, Petra Marhava will receive the SPPS Early Career Prize! She is a dedicated and focused scientist with publications in top tier journals as The Plant Cell and Nature Plants. She surely is a rising star in nordic plant biology! Umeå Plant Science Centre (UPSC)

Tiny fern smashes world record for biggest DNA - Has a record-breaking genome size of 160 billion base pairs of DNA in each cell, which when unravelled would stretch out to about 100 metres. bbc.com/news/articles/…

It's an honour to be awarded the Wittgenstein prize! This will boost our research on auxin signalling and more! Thanks to all the people involved and to the group!
