Yesterday was PhD graduation time at University of Leeds. Thanks again Tom Bennett for all your support and guidance, it was a very enriching 4.5 years ending with a doctor-to-doctor handshake.

4 ERC-funded jobs will available in my lab from early 2023 (more details soon). At the moment, I'd welcome informal enquiries for a 4-year postdoc job in #genomics/ #plant #evolution/ #mutualism/#symbiosis-I'm looking for someone not afraid to analyse 150+ genomes! dm me. Pls RT!

I am so confused as to why the hands of this clock at Leeds Station have been covered up… Was it making an inflammatory gesture twice a day?? 🖕

On my way to examine a thesis at University of Nottingham… or at least, I would be, if the cattle hadn’t invaded the railway line 🤣 I didn’t cownt on being delayed…

#Auxin2022 Well this all seems very civilised, I think I can probably hack a week of this…

#Auxin2022 Oh come on Croatia, stop trying so hard.

Walking past my Faculty’s reception desk…and apparently DWARF14 is the molcule of the month for October 2022…how? who? why? I’m not complaining, just completely surprised to see this here 🤣

Massive congratulations to Dr. Catriona Walker Catriona Walker, who successfully defended her thesis this week! 🥂 And thank you to Lars Ostergaard for officiating! A very proud moment for the lab 😊

Pretty proud of this review that Mark Waters and I wrote on karrikin signaling and the (still) mysterious KAI2 ligand. 18 years after the discovery of karrikins in smoke, this field has come a long way! Final version is out now nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…

Like a particularly grizzly bear, I’m just emerging from my now-yearly Twitter hibernation 🐻 Apparently term-time strongly inhibits my ability to communicate with the world 🤣 Plenty to catch up on…

We honestly couldn’t have done this work without these chambers Alexis Moschopoulos! Would strongly recommend them to anyone looking to accurately run experiments across a range of environmental conditions, or looking for a highly precise phenotyping set-up!

Super thrilled that we just got our latest findings published in Nature Plants.🌿☘️🌻 Structure and characterization of the plant sucrose transporter SUC1: The "❤️" of plants. link: doi.org/10.1038/s41477… and full text here ($$ open access 😅): rdcu.be/dcaW1 1/

Great to see Pablo Pablo González-Suárez featured here! Hopefully the first of many first author research papers 😁
