Congratulations Gary GaryFoster well deserved honor! It's a great profile, it really captures you and your dedication to science and people, including your occasional (but necesssary) "loudness".

📢4-year PhD position in our group CRAG! We would like to hear from candidates with strong interest in plant #epigenetics, transcriptional regulation, bioinformatics. 🌱🧬🖥️ Apply before October 15th: recruitment.cragenomica.es/jobs/predoctor… #PlantSciJobs

Our deep dive into cis-regulatory diversity using single-cell genomics across maize germplasm reveals how genetic variants reshape chromatin accessibility, transcription factor binding, chromatin interactions and much more. Led by Alexandre Marand! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Had a great time yesterday chatting with Dr Shane Huntington OAM about how @Plants4Space will help us explore the solar system and tackle on-Earth challenges. La Trobe University rrr.org.au/shared/broadca…

Just out from the lab. Some lovely 3D imaging of germinating barley grain. A method development project by PhD student Olivia Doolan, who is part of the La Trobe University Sheffield Hallam joint PhD program.

My lab has 2 postdoc positions funded by #NIH and #NSF to study novel ORFs and translational regulation in Arabidopsis and crops. Please retweet. jobs.plantae.org/jobs/20506097/…

Just heard the sad news that Professor Enid MacRobbie died last night. A titan of plant biology. A very clever scientist and very supportive of young researchers. One of the founders of the field of plant electrophysiology research.
