The strange case of the bleeding flower..

Looking for a PhD position in an amazing group? Interested in plant-insect interactions, coevolution and genomics? Would like to work in the beautiful botanical garden of Zürich? If the answer to any (or some) of the above is "Yes!", then here's what you've been looking for:

A PhD position to study the genomic bases of plant-insect coadaptation in my lab is currently available; check out the add under systbot.uzh.ch/en.html an apply by May 1st if you are interested.

Special seminar today at 4: First live seminar since the start of the pandemic!!! Dr. @SerainaCappelli will talk about "Interactions between plant communities and their fungal pathogens - from ecological experiments to agricultural utilization"

Today at 4: Prof. Ivalú Cacho from the National Autonomous University of Mexico will talk about: "Examining patterns and drivers of divergence in a plant ring-species". Dont miss it!!

We’ve had a great Spring #newphytologistnow series. Don’t miss the final event. See you there!

HEAT WAVE TIPS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 in association with the UK Meat Marketing Board. 1. Make yourself a huge piping hot pan of beef and onions and eat it under the midday sun.

Lets go #ESEB2022!! Lookin forward to a week of evolution ESEB Juan Traine

Great talk by Erik van Bergen on herbivore adaptation to novel chemical plant defenses. ESEB #ESEB2022 (Thnx for the photobomb @emilianomc)

Did the coffee make it home ?

Struggling to keep my feet on the ground here. Big, big love for all the retweets.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Wow. Ok, you've earned the video. We've all earned the video.

Very last GC run of Juan Traine PhD thesis! U can see the nostalgia already on those faces....
