The Pew Latin American Fellows Program is open for applications! Amazing program for scientists thinking about or doing cutting-edge research in the US for their postdoc, and committed to return to Latin America. Please RT. pewtrusts.org/en/projects/pe… SOBLA

The always wonderful Jose Dinneny giving the Schull Award talk at #PlantBio2024. José Dinneny ABA tunes root growth under stress through distinct signalling pathways

Excited to share this new collaborative chapter in our exploration of the biodiversity in environmental stress through single-cell approaches. 5 species, 3 conditions and loads of HCR validation to support findings on the evolution of gene expression. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

So happy to see this epic transcriptomic, phosphoproteomic and functional genomic characterization of the osmotic stress response in Chlamydomonas with testing of conserved pathways in Arabidopsis. Phenomenal work led by Josep Vilarrasa Blasi w/ Martin Jonikas rdcu.be/dN0Hi

Diffusing protein binders to intrinsically disordered proteins - Finetune RFdiffusion to accept secondary structure specifications along with sequence input. Add partially masked secondary structure and "block adjacency" information. - Input Target protein sequence (optionally

After a mere blink in the cosmos -3 years as a preprint- our paper has found its home in Nature Communications . Thanks to all coauthors, the long supporting journey José Dinneny, and collaborators Martin Jonikas and Michael Sussman. Oh, and by the way, I'm job hunting!!!

Dream come true! Honored and excited to take on this adventure in my scientific career. Our research on the mechanisms plants use to survive a challenging world now gets a huge boost. Thank you to my family at home and in the lab for love and support! hhmi.org/news/hhmi-inve…

Excited to announce our latest publication from the amazing Ying Xie in Molecular Cell We find that stress granules and P-bodies fluidize the cytoplasm in response to diverse stresses. Tweetorial soon! cell.com/molecular-cell…

Ok, this is a big one! Proud to present our latest story on hydropatterning-a process that allows plants to sense moisture gradients in soil and activate branching. Johannes Scharwies defines the genetic basis for this response in maize and Arabidopsis! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

📢New paper alert!! With Wyoming Water Bear Lab Alex Holehouse Stephen Fried JHU we take a look at how an entire proteome survives desiccation. TLDR: Desiccation tolerance is encoded in specific residues on the protein surface, and occurs primarily in biosynthetic enzymes. shorturl.at/U5VS1

🏆 Estamos orgullosos de anunciar que Daiana Capdevila, jefa de nuestro CapdeviLAB, es una de las ganadoras del Fondo de Innovación de @Pewtrusts 👏🏻 ¡Felicitaciones! 🔗Leé la nota completa: leloir.org.ar/capdevila-pew-…

TSL will miss Neftaly Cruz Mireles very much. We thank him for his many, varied and valuable contributions. We wish him well for the next exciting step of his career

I genetically engineered the amazing Arabidopsis to mimic the striking patterns of my Tradescantia zebrina🧬🌱 From concept to creation, here's the story behind transforming this plant into a living work of art! (1/7) 🧵"

Our SUF4 condensation paper is finally out! cell.com/cell-reports/f… Thank you to everyone who has scientifically, mentally, and emotionally supported my co-authors and me over the years. Below is a summary of the work-- we hope you enjoy our findings!

My friend David Sabatini continues to be relentlessly targeted by gossip-driven tabloids pretending to be trusted scientific institutions. Science magazine’s latest piece is yet another one-sided hit job — downplaying or ignoring that the legal outcome was mixed, with some
