Join us! We are going to have a ton of fun this summer with 2 week projects on plant and animal morphogenesis! @maizel-lab.org is leading a module. For my section we are going to live image developing leaves.
Register here π www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/internatio...
π’ Online event: International Society of Root Research - Mini Symposium β Wed 28 Jan 2026, 10:00β17:00 UK (12:00β18:30 UTC). Talks + discussion for anyone into root research & related topics.

Mapping auxin dynamics in the formation of lateral roots with a dual-DR5 reporter (Blanca Jazmin Reyes-HernΓ‘ndez) doi.org/10.1093/plph... #PlantScience @aspbofficial
Applications for the 2026 Vienna BioCenter Summer School Program are now open!
Please share this opportunity with talented undergrads or Masters students interested in broadening their research experience in molecular biology in the heart of Europe π§¬
Our work on mapping the dynamics of phospholipids during lateral root formation is now published in @jxbotany.bsky.social We show that PI(4,5)Pβ plays a key role: targeted reduction in pericycle promotes LR development.

If you know postdocs in the US whose work is restricted or becoming difficult, there are new fellowship possibilities in the south of Germany. Please, forward this information to them:
uni-freiburg.de/frias/call-f...
Our lab in Freiburg can also serve as a host β happy to discuss options.
I'm looking forward to a fun year of working with these folks! We met today, and they are excited to start sharing great plant science!
Glad to see this!
