Hearty congratulations to Dr Stepanie Conway @sjconway01 for winning the best ECR talk at Australian Society of Plant Scientists #ASPS2023 sponsored by @CoEPlantSucces and to Dr Nicole Fortuna for her in silico Plants award for her talk. Great women leading science!

Finally put our first plant in the 3D scanner with Ben Halliwell and @BywaterCandice at UTas Francois Barbier and Tom Fisher we can even see the cups! ARC Centre of Excellence for Plant Success

Merry Christmas from the Sciences and Engineering at University of Tasmania ARC Centre of Excellence for Plant Success node! 🌻☘️🍃

With a bit of synthetic biology and classical genetics, I transformed the unremarkable Arabidopsis flower into a beautiful pink rose 🌹🧬 with Stefano Bencivenga. (A thread 🧵)

We are looking for candidates to apply here shorturl.at/ceADQ for a 3 years postdoc position!, check before you are eligible and drop me a mail shorturl.at/inv28 if interested on evolution of antiviral defenses, crosskingdom RNAi or cell type specific immunity!

I've got a postdoc position open in my lab. Do you work on moss, single cell transcriptomics or plant developmental genomics? Consider applying for this position - more here: recruit.ucdavis.edu/JPF06360

Our latest work from Dr. Qingtian Li Qingtian We find that degradation-resistant SMXL proteins attenuate strigolactone signaling by interfering with targeting of other members of the SMXL family by D14-MAX2. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Getting ready to traumatise some trees, 4300 sample labels printed, 2500 plants! The biggest experiment we have done to date. Thanks to ARC Centre of Excellence for Plant Success for funding such a cool project and Barbara Holland for leading the team. Hard to believe we started planning one year ago! 🌱🍃🌿

How do cells efficiently respond to stress? Transcriptional stress responses are well-known—and in our latest study, we discover that cells use biomolecular condensation to redirect translation from old to new mRNAs 1/n biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I have three positions open in my lab at the moment - two postdocs and a senior business admin...

Always a pleasure to listen to Franziska Fichtner talk Tre6p and to see our collaborations as part of the bigger and very impressive picture!

#ipmb2024 come along to my talk on Friday at 2:20pm at the plant responses climate change session hear about our ARC Centre of Excellence for Plant Success research involving integrating molecular genetics, water relations physiology and the release of our new time-series omics R package!🌱💦🧬💻

Great talk by Monika Chodasiewicz about stress granules today! Quite intriguing to see what kind of proteins are in there...

This was a super cool talk today! Can’t wait to see what comes next from this work 👀
