Registration closes this Fri 4 Oct for the inaugural @BlackInPlantSci Conference in Cambridge. Open to all plant enthusiasts irrespective of career stage or cultural heritage. Diversity is of benefit to all, so everyone needs to be involved to solve hurdles minority groups face.

Celebrating Katie Jeal's thesis submission recently. Thanks to her 'can do' attitude and great work ethic, she has achieved so much more than I hoped at the start of her project on wheat receptor-like kinase function 🥳. Looking forward to next steps @KatieJeal17 #WomenInWheat!

Looking forward to this meeting in Cambridge December 16th.

All set for some schools outreach to celebrate our building’s 10th birthday today 🥳.

Celebrating comings and goings in the lab this week- a warm welcome to Xiaolian Wang who has joined us from Beijing to work on an HFSP origin of apical growth project and a farewell to Katie Jeal, who is moving on to work on awns at SLCU. We will miss you!
