Joe Ecker Joe Ecker, Joseph Swift Joseph Swift, and team have revealed the genetic details of 30-million-year-old question: How did some plants evolve from less-efficient C3 photosynthesis to C4 photosynthesis? Their findings pave the way for the creation of more robust,

A new paper led by Sebastian Sippel just appeared in Nature arguing that ocean temperature measurements in the early 20th century have a cold bias. It's a fun story illustrating the process of scientific discovery, so let me talk about it a bit. 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4158…

I am looking for a PhD student to start in fall of 2025 at MSU. Potential topics include trait-based approaches to plankton community resilience, temperature effects on communities, harmful algal blooms, etc . Please get in touch if interested. More info: kl-lab.group.
