So proud to be part of this study. We found how the plant hormone GA forms a gradient in Arabidopsis roots using FRET biosensor. Alexander Jones 🌈 Annalisa Rizza Sainsbury Laboratory Cambridge University (SLCU)

The @sebiology 2021 Annual Conference is going virtual and there's a can't miss extended session on plant hormones! Here are all the details on the new meeting format, dates, and exciting scientific programme. ctt.ec/OB0eK+ Abstracts are due 15 Mar - just 10 days.

Not all of us have a clear idea of what we want to do in life, but that's okay. Dr Annalisa Rizza thought she wanted to be a medical doctor but is now working on understanding how gibberellin, affects plant growth. Find out more... futurumcareers.com/the-molecules-…

Viva Ph.inishe.D Sainsbury Laboratory Cambridge University (SLCU) ! Great thanks to the two examiners Sebastian Schornack . What a wonderful journey my PhD had been. Huge thanks to my supervisor Alexander Jones 🌈 and everyone in the Jones group, especially Annalisa Rizza . Exciting journey in science ahead!!!!!

So happy for everyone involved in this study, and especially for Bo Larsen who joined my group the very first day to try to make optogenetics in plants a reality. Today it’s a bright and growing field! Still lots more to do, but very proud of Bo for diving in to make Highlighter!
