I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be joining ZMBP as a Junior Group Leader in October 2025! My lab will explore the functional and structural diversity of plant immune receptors. 1/2 #NewPI #PlantImmunity #NLRs #PlantScience #StructuralBiology

I’ll advertise a fully funded PhD position soon, so watch this space! Also open to hosting candidates for PostDoc fellowships. If you're attending this year's IS-MPMI meeting in Cologne, let me know and we can meet up! 😀 2/2

1/🚨 New preprint alert! Can mutualists and pathogens co-colonise the same living plant cell and what does that do to the plant membranes that surround these microbes?

Me trusting the process and hoping my thesis will be okay

1/ How do insects go green? Not with chlorophyll, but with a protein that mimics it. Meet dibilinoxanthinin (DBXN), a molecular LED built from yolk protein.🧵

New Postdoc position (2yrs) available in our #EvoMPMI lab John Innes Centre. Come and work with on harnessing the diversity of immune mechanisms to protect plants. jobs.jic.ac.uk/Details.asp?va…

Today is my first day as an Assistant Professor NTU Singapore NTU School of Biological Sciences, after ten rewarding years working with my wonderful mentors Nick Talbot Dr. Wenbo Ma and colleagues The Sainsbury Laboratory

In my new lab, we’ll continue exploring plant–fungus interactions and modelling climate‑change scenarios. We’re currently recruiting for PhD and postdocs — please stay tuned for updates!

I’m excited to share our latest preprint on the cell biology of plant hypersensitive cell death! 🌱💥 We used live-cell imaging to unravel what happens after resistosome activation—one of the least understood phases of plant immune responses. doi.org/10.1101/2025.0…

🎓 New PhD Position Available! We’re excited to announce a new opportunity to join our team as a PhD student. 👇 Check out all the details in our post below. 🚀 Apply now! Please RT!

Looking forward to meeting friends and colleagues at #2025ISMPMI next week! Find me at P-267 >>> Session 1, Monday, 14th. In the meantime, you can check out my poster on Zenodo :) #openscience zenodo.org/records/158379…

Thrilled to share our latest bioRxiv! This work started during my PhD and was finished together with Jogi Madhuprakash. We found a Phytophthora infestans L-shaped effector that bridges a host TOL protein to activated NLRs to suppress immunity! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/15

Pikobodies vs. Potato Blight 🥊🥔 NLR–Nanobody Fusions Take on P. infestans 💥 🎤 Talk: Thurs July 17th, 16:35 🧾 Poster P-64: Tues 15th, Session 2 Poster’s up on Zenodo if you’re into spoilers 👀📎 zenodo.org/records/158479… #2025ISMPMI #OpenMPMI🌿

Our new preprint is now out! Visit my poster P-083 at #2025ISMPMI to hear more!

A plant pathogen effector blocks stepwise assembly of a helper NLR resistosome biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #biorxiv_plants

The Magnaporthe oryzae MAX effector AVR-Pia binds a novel group of rice HMA domain-containing proteins biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #biorxiv_plants

Thrilled to share an aspect of my PhD project on the discovery and characterisation of a novel group of 'phosphorylated' effectors deployed by the rice blast fungus during infection. With Nick Talbot Frank Menke Neftaly Cruz Mireles The Sainsbury Laboratory #2025ISMPMI

Excited to preprint work mainly by former postdocs Li Feng, Yingnan Hou Yingnan Hou, and the phylogenomics genius AmirAli Toghani The Sainsbury Laboratory. We found a plant defense gene family enabling pathogen gene silencing & explored engineering this pathway to boost disease resistance!

Our upcoming Plant Proteins meeting offers a unique platform for academia, industry and regulators to share insights, debate challenges and explore solutions for optimising plant protein utility. Be part of the conversation, register today #PlantProteomics eventsforce.net/biochemsoc/241…

Verano de bachillerato en el laboratorio: Aitana Soler y Jan Magem viven la realidad de la investigación científica en #CNIOStopCancer con el programa ‘Jóvenes y ciencia’ de la @FCLP_Fundació. Han trabajado un mes en el grupo de Roger Castells-Graells, que también participó en este programa
