Evofruland aims to understand the evolution of fruits and the developmental mechanisms for their diversity. Follow the website if you are interested! The project is lead by an incredible group of scientists and I am just so happy to participate. 🍅🍋🍓🍒🍎🍉🍑🍊🥭🍇🫐🍆

We are happy to announce the first Mid-Term Meeting. It will be online tomorrow, October 6th 2022. A good opportunity for the project participants to meet all together and discuss results and plan new experiments!

Back to work at New York Botanical Garden with Barbara Ambrose, one of my favorite persons in the world and thanks to our EVOfruland_MSCA_RISE 🇪🇺

Communication is a priority task in the Evofruland project: bioseba 🌱 from @HortusLabUnipd Department of Biology – University of Padova Università di Padova gave a lecture about "fruit development and evolution" to master students of "Plants Reproductive Strategies" taught by Lucia Colombo Colombo Lab PlantDev UNIMI Università degli Studi di Milano 🌱🍅

Fleshy fruits are our passion but also dry fruits are so fascinating 😍

Are you an International talented student interested in fruit and fruit-like structure development? submit a project to apply for UniPhD program of Università di Padova. Don't miss the possibility to work with us and with our international EVOfruland_MSCA_RISE 🇪🇺 project partners. 1/2

Great opportunity for international researchers to get supported for MSCA postdoctoral fellowships. Apply now!

CristinaFerrandiz Universidad de Antioquia pacomad Thanks EVOfruland_MSCA_RISE 🇪🇺 for bringing these amazing scientists to #Medellin. The lab and our community is always eager to share more with incredible researchers. CristinaFerrandiz and pacomad are also keynote speakers Congreso Colombiano Biología Desarrollo . Don't miss them ! 💃🍅🫛

Today we learned a lot about the function and evolution of HECATE 3 genes. Amazing talk by CristinaFerrandiz at Universidad de Antioquia . Thanks EVOfruland_MSCA_RISE 🇪🇺 for bringing our labs closer. Stay tuned for more projects together!

We want also to acknowledge the funding agencies that support our research and participation Department of Biology – University of Padova Orto botanico di Padova Università di Padova STARS@UNIPD UNIPhD UNIMPRESA University of Padua Research EVOfruland_MSCA_RISE 🇪🇺 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions

First day of fieldwork for bioseba 🌱 and @CeciZumajo of Department of Biology – University of Padova and Orto botanico di Padova together with Natalia Pabon Mora 🇨🇴🌿🌷 in a paramo in Cundinamarca, Colombia, in the context of EVOfruland_MSCA_RISE 🇪🇺 project. This environment offers an amazing biodiversity of unique plants!

Second day of fieldwork for me and @CeciZumajo in the Paramo, helping Natalia Pabon Mora 🇨🇴🌿🌷 to collect plants 🌱 we did a good sampling and had a lot of fun surrounded by frailejones.

@CeciZumajo and bioseba 🌱 from Department of Biology – University of Padova Università di Padova University of Padua Research presented their research at Universidad de Antioquia in the context of EVOfruland_MSCA_RISE 🇪🇺 great opportunity to share and discuss ideas about future perspectives on plant evolution with Natalia Pabon Mora 🇨🇴🌿🌷 colleagues and students

We cherish every opportunity we have to learn from amazing colleagues! This week we had incredible talks in seed evolution and plant bacteria interactions at Universidad de Antioquia . Thank you EVOfruland_MSCA_RISE 🇪🇺 for allowing research exchanges that help us grow as scientists.

Today we celebrate science and its impact on society! Check our website to learn the progress of our research on fruit development and evolution 🍒🍓🍇🍎🍉🍑🍊🍋🍍🍌🥑🍏🍈🍐🥝🍅🍏🥥🍉🫐 #ScienceDay #WorldScienceDay evofruland.eu
