Happy to share with you some of my work done at Adrienne's lab Roeder lab. It's a collaborative effort from many people Nicholas Russell Pau Formosa-Jordan Saket Rahul Bagde Chris Fromme @msu_skirycz Salaiha and many others not on Twitter. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Giant cells specification relies on very long-chain fatty acids, as well as its fate maintenance. Thanks Roeder lab for sharing this journey with us, congrats @Vijaya_Battula Nicholas Russell Saket Rahul Bagde Chris Fromme @msu_skirycz Salaiha and co-authors! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Roeder lab Nicholas Russell MPIPZ Cologne Have a look at these simulations from Nicholas Russell with giant cells de-differentiation upon VLCFA inhibition, adapted from the preprint.

We (Batthula Vijaya Lakshmi Vadde, Pau Formosa-Jordan, Roeder lab et. al) preprinted a highly interdisciplinary and collaborative work uncovering how giant cells maintain their endoreduplication, and interestingly, how they can de-differentiate.

❗️PostdocNet is issuing a statement together with German postdoc networks on the Federal Cabinet's decision on the WissZeitVG amendment of March 27, 2024 due to their impact on academic careers and Germany's scientific competitiveness. 👉postdocnet.mpg.de/joint-statemen…

Super excited to be part of this team!!!!!!! Soltis Lab @UF @roszenil Anna Selmecki Roeder lab @dr_tialynn @Exp_EvoEco Pau Formosa-Jordan Yves Van de Peer and many more! NSF Awards $12.5M to Duke Researchers and Colleagues to Explore Polyploidy medschool.duke.edu/news/nsf-award…

The 2024 Max Planck Postdocnet Survey has begun! If you are an MPG Postdoc, please fill it out! Thank you to everyone in the Survey and Steering Groups who have made this happen. It's been awesome to work on this yet again. More information about our survey here: postdocnet.mpg.de/survey

Last week we had a one day retreat with Pau Formosa-Jordan group talking about theory aspects of developmental and cellular systems. It was particularly stimulating to look across different problems and discuss diversity of theoretical approches! MPI for Neurobiology of Behavior – caesar

If you thought you didn't have to pay attention to giant cells because they are only in sepals, think again. Giant cells are found in Arabidopsis leaves too, and their development is controlled by the same genes. Pau Formosa-Jordan Gauthier Weissbart biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Is giant cell patterning random in sepals and leaves? Check out our new work combining quantitative microscopy, computational methods and modeling, a great collaboration with Clark @Weissbart Wang @Roederl and co-authors! MPIPZ Cologne CEPLAS Cornell University biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Check out this awesome work by Gauthier Weissbart, Pau Formosa-Jordan, and Roeder lab! The important symbiosis between experiments, data/image analysis, and mathematical modeling is shown yet again.

🚨 Attention postdocs! 🚨 Join us for a PAW event on postdoc surveys: "Postdoc Surveys – Benefits, Considerations & Opportunities for Improving the Postdoc Experience" 📝 📅 Sept 19 | ⏰ 12:00-13:00 🔗 Register: zoom.us/meeting/regist…

❗🎉Calling all Postdocs in the Max Planck Society! 📢❗ Registration is open for our PostdocNet general meeting in November!

Always a pleasure to discuss this vital topic with some amazing panelists and an A-list host.

My friends (@becker_regi, Nicholas Russell) and I wrote a little something on efforts to improve the working lives of postdocs working in Germany. If you have time, please take a look! nature.com/articles/d4158…

Understanding the needs, wants and concerns of postdocs is crucial to creating an academic landscape that works better for everyone go.nature.com/481jPP9

Both Max Planck Postdocnet and LeibnizPostDocs conduct postdoc surveys. In Nature Careers, we explain why we do this and how you can do it too! ✍️ with the amazing Harry Williams & @becker_regi nature.com/articles/d4158… #Postdocs #WissZeitVG #AcademicChatter #academia

If you’re considering running a postdoc survey at your institution, here’s a checklist from Max Planck Postdocnet and LeibnizPostDocs to get you started. go.nature.com/3NrPDTL

🚨 We are pleased to present the report into the 2nd Leibniz PostDoc survey! 🚨 This has been a long-time coming but we are happy to see this report into the careers, working lives, and mental health of Leibniz PostDocs finally available. For more information, keep reading!
