Always happy to take pictures with my #durum babies 🙂. By the way this is the #third cycle of the year #Speedbreeding #Genomicselection ICARDA #Morocco

Please RT: I’m looking for postdoc to engineer gene regulatory networks to design disease resistant crops. Collab with me Biology at York, @nicolabiologist Cambridge University& Richard Morris John Innes Centre Deadline Feb 26th #plantsyntheticbiology jobs.york.ac.uk/vacancy/resear…

I was very proud to show the work we do at ICARDA to my ambassador Mr Dölger. It’s always a pleasure to meet fellow agriculturalists, and discuss how the power of science can help safeguard our planet and combat climate change Germany in Morocco 🌍🇲🇦🇩🇪🌾

I’m really so excited for coming to Australia and present our work from Morocco and the wider region on barley and it’s awesome wild relatives! Thanks abts2024 for the invite!

Congratulation Isa Isa - the whole lab is so proud of your recognition as a 2024 Women in Triticum Early Career awardee. Richly deserved for your scientific excellence, values and leadership. bgri.cornell.edu/awards/wit-ear… John Innes Centre European Research Council (ERC)

I so enjoyed listening to the illuminata podcasts over the last year…. except for this one 🫣😅but thank you so much 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗲 𝗥𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗹𝗮 Cristina Ocaña G. for the insightful questions! It’s hard to stop me once I’m allowed to talk about wheat, barley and their wild relatives 🌾🌾

Hi everyone! 🍃 Isabel Faci here Isa - excited to take over this account for 3 weeks. I'm a third year PhD student in Cristobal Uauy's lab at the John Innes Centre, where I study photoperiod and temperature interactions and their effects on wheat development. (1/2)

It’s Transformation Tuesday 😊 A warm welcome to @aroojazhwar00 who joined the wheat transformation team John Innes Centre yesterday. Second day and already isolating wheat embryos for a Delivering Sustainable Wheat project 👏👏👏👏

1/ Pre-war wheat could hold the key to securing and improving future harvests. Led by the UK John Innes Centre and China (AGIS-CAAS), scientist from across the globe have concluded a 20 year study to decipher the genomes of over 800 pre-war wheats. jic.ac.uk/press-release/…

PRESS RELEASE - Finding hidden genetic treasure: study uncovers untapped diversity in historic wheat collection A decade-long collaborative study into the Watkins Collection has discovered huge genetic potential that is untapped in modern wheat varieties okt.to/1wfgr3

Thank you to Nick Bird for showing us around the KWS UK Ltd site today. It was great to see the size of the operation and learn more about the various breeding programmes. I was particularly impressed that KWS reinvests almost 20% of their profits back into R&D and innovation!

The first italian GE trial has been destroyed by "ecoterrorist" last night. Full support to vittoria brambilla and her collegues. Don't give up!

To the wheat and plant sciences community: We want to share across the coming weeks our day-to-day lab protocols, via protocols.io (open access, no peer review). First release is: "How to grow wheat" dx.doi.org/10.17504/proto… Feedback is welcomed and greatly appreciated! 💬

Today we are excited to share our protocols.io on how to dissect (and collect) spike meristems. We hope it can be useful! dx.doi.org/10.17504/proto… As we release the protocols we countdown for #IWC2024Perth 🌾 5 weeks left!

What a wonderful Wheat Transformation and Genome Editing Team John Innes Centre so proud of you all 👏👏👏 and your collective efforts JIC_Wheat Transformation and Genome Editing

These two absolute legends of John Innes Centre getting the recognition they so deserve. You could not imaging two more supportive and caring mentors who just happen to also be outstanding scientists than Andy and Nik

Congratulations Nikolai Adamski - @nikolaiadamski.bsky.social 💯🥳 thanks for the hours and hours of support and kindness. And for being a great role model on how to be a mentor 🐻🥳

A big congrats to Andy and Nik. For this well-deserved award. You are really a model for all mentor 👑👑 Supportive, caring, and very human ❤️❤️ So happy for you guys! Nikolai Adamski - @nikolaiadamski.bsky.social @AndyBreakspear John Innes Centre Mentor Award 2024

1/2 - I'm proud to have my first first-author paper up on BioRxiv and submitted for review. It was an absolute pleasure working with oluwaseyi shorinola, Abel Gari, Ash_g, Cristobal Uauy, and a host of incredible researchers at Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research-EIAR.
