Color tierrita. Maize Genetics 🧬 🌽. Don't let poets lie to you.
If you're doing mentoring right, your mentees will argue with you. And when they win one - that's a great day! scientistseessquirre...
As a grad student, I loved to argue, about almost anything (mostly over beer). I avoided arguing with my PhD advisor though – mostly out of my knowledge that he was pretty famous, as ecologists go,…
Delighted to share the lab’s first independent publication, a Tansley Insight in @newphyt.bsky.social where we analyse new crop genomics studies to show how we can engineer plants that can grow at different latitudes (key for climate-smart Ag) nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
Come work with us at the University of Copenhagen on image recognition problems in agriculture!
Some really interesting projects that go across institutions and borders.

The regime halted all federal grants then told UC administration if they pay $1 billion they could have them back. It’s like ransomware. UC is a public university system and we cannot do this. So, no grants = no research and labs will shut down. Are we great yet?

Dr. Jerzy Kupiec-Weglinski has led organ transplant research at UCLA for nearly three decades. Kupiec-Weglinski, the vice chairman of basic science research in the David Geffen School of Medicine’s su...
Temporal analysis of physiological phenotypes identifies metabolic and genetic underpinnings of senescence in maize (Manwinder S Brar , Rohit Kumar , Bharath Kunduru , Elizabeth Leonard , Christopher S McMahan , Nishanth Tharayil , Rajandeep S Sekhon) doi.org/10.1093/plce... #PlantScience
My favourite Bohr story is when two of his grad students took him to the movies - a Western. After the film was over they asked him if he liked it. He said that he did (of course, because Bohr was a nice person) but that the gunfight at the end was entirely predictable. The good guy was obviously…
We just published: Why you should sequence your plasmids (and how to do it for free)
Through @GetGenome scientists in 100 countries can access free whole-plasmid sequencing —giving researchers the confidence to move their experiments forward.
