What a great way to meet interesting people and build your network

Let us know if you think of another starter pack that could be useful for the aspiring plant scientists of the world

Here's another starter pack for you: This one is the learned societies and institutes linked to plant science in the UK. If you think your account should be included and has been missed, drop us a line

This is what plants are chatting about When they are hurt or under stress they release volatile compounds that inform and prepare other plants. In this way plants can prepare for predators but also heat or water stress. #STEM #Fascinating #PlantBiology #Nature

Woah! What a neat idea to demonstrate the diversity of form created with tweaks to the genome

A really fun way to get involved with plant science! Good luck to all the finalists, we will see you there!

Organised by Alex Johnson and Joe McKenna, who we have had the pleasure of working with at the Gatsby Plant Science Summer School, this is a great opportunity not to be missed! Just 2 more days to apply for a funded place if you are an ECR

Checkout our new starter pack: Academics to follow on BlueSky to keep up to date with cutting edge discoveries in the world of plant science! go.bsky.app/5CYhV8v
