Great first day of our NSF PGRP sponsored maize transformation workshop at Rutgers with Andrea Gallavotti, Margaret Young @revealplant.bsky.social, Dave Jackson, and special guest Kan Wang! Wonderful group of participants getting their hands dirty in the lab 🤓

Thrilled to announce our newest preprint on #dedifferentiation in Arabidopsis 🧬🌱. We used scRNA-seq and hormone treatments to track transcriptional reprogramming in diverse somatic cell types and found what we think is some pretty cool biology. Feedback welcome! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

We have an open-rank professorship position open @unileiden.bsky.social Institute of Biology: careers.universiteitleiden.nl/job/Assistan... welcome to apply! due: 7 June

Latest preprint from our lab: We've studied the development and functional genomics of cannabis glandular trichomes using single cell multiomics (simultaneous gene expression and chromatin status profiling).
