Great chance to work in a fascinating topic in a nice environment!

Zygnema #genomes are here!! This has been a great collaborative effort with many friends!! #Chromosome-level genomes of #multicellular algal sisters to land #plants illuminate signaling network #evolution || #plantsci #algae European Research Council (ERC) MadLand biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are recruiting!📢 A postdoc position is available in our lab Wageningen U&R ! Please take a look at the details in the attached flyer! Pls repost!

A shocking news, I was really lucky to meet prof. Benfey in person once, he is really a great scientist and bring many impancts to the community. A great lost of the plant science field. RIP prof. Benfey.

A dense system of pre-Hispanic urban centers, characterized by constructed platforms and plazas and connected by large, straight roads, has been discovered in the upper Amazon. Learn more in the latest issue of Science: scim.ag/5tX

There isn’t all that much information available on how to how to build a research group, and even less on how to build an inclusive, collaborative lab. Here I’ve written about my approach - I hope some other (new) PIs find it useful! #ECRchat franciskadevries.wordpress.com/2024/06/16/thr…

Fun times! #Mesotaenium #Syto14

I'm excited that our work on the first RNA-guided RNA-silencing prokaryotic Argonaute is out! See the thread of Fabai for all the cool highlights of this multidisciplinary/collaboration project!

I tried a new thing for #XVIIRBMP...lesson: inner jokes confuse most people

Cell walls are crucial in all aspects of plant life, yet challenging to study. PhD Maarten Besten, our chemistry superman, likes a challenge and designed a modular probe toolbox for live 5D plant cell wall imaging. We present: CarboTag. A 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
