Excited to share our latest preprint. Arabidopsis thaliana has been the leading model for plant genetics - but most of what we know comes from growth chambers.
Can this model also help us understand how climate shapes plants in the wild and reveal gene functions under real environmental variability?
We are inviting applications for a joint appointment:
Director at the Leibniz Institute of Plant Biochemistry
Full Professor (W3) at MLU
Apply by April, 24 via: berufungsportal.uni-halle.de
Join us in advancing innovative research at the interface of chemistry and bioactive natural products.
"From industrial Past to Green Future" written around an ancient industry tower typical for the region together with a plant changing colours from blue to green is the motto of the German Society for Plant Sciences international Conference, the Botanik-Tagung, 2026 in Bochum Germany, that brings together plant scientists from several scientific disciplines. The logo highlights the structural change of the Ruhr area, from coal mining + heavy industries to the increasingly important issues of climate protection, sustainability + preservation of biodiversity, with plant sciences at the forefront of this transformation.

There is a week left to apply for two available positions in my lab @ipbhalle.bsky.social
- PhD: ipb-halle.mhm.jobs/12-phd-posit...
- Postdoc: ipb-halle.mhm.jobs/13-postdocto...
Earliest start date: 01/05/2026.
We are interested in plant immune receptor biochemistry and evolution. Please share!
My review “Co-translational control of protein stability and quality in plants” is now online at @jxbotany.bsky.social, in which I describe how co-translational processing and ribosome-associated quality control together establish protein stability and fate early in synthesis. tinyurl.com/5dhhz9h6

Huge congrats to Alibek and everyone involved! It is a great work!
PhD work of Alibek! <3. "Sometimes the real treasure are the selective autophagy receptors we found along the way (marchantiales) and them dropped unceremoniously".
Really happy to see this one out: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... Alibek's drive & great coll w/ friends @gekaragoz.bsky.social & E. Hallacli resulted in a cool story that starts with our beloved #Marchantia and ends with iPSC-derived neurons 🤩🤪 A short 🧵
Hey everyone joining us @ #MBP2026 in mid March, we just released the conference program. Please check it out here: syncandshare.lrz.de/dl/fiPnsPinb... we are super excited to see you all soon and to talk 🌱🔬🥼 over 🍻all night long!

Shoutout to yesterday’s guest @eswallner.bsky.social, who visited us from @gmivienna.bsky.social for her talk “Lessons from sporeling development: How to form plant organs and meristems de novo?” - fascinating perspective on plant development!🌱
Thanks as well to @thevirusmc.bsky.social for hosting 🙏
