💫🌻🍀 thank you to The Edina Trust for supporting @sci-seedlets.bsky.social to reach over 3000 pupils! 35 primary schools🧑‍🎓📝🔬🏫 will begin their 5-week classroom plant biology lessons using 🌱 experiments and digital learning in a virtual #plantscience lab 🥼 #curriculum sci-seedlets.org.uk/resources/

🌱Fascinating mechanisms for #environment sensing in plants! 🔬our #new-publication on anion channel regulation & CO2 dependent stomatal closure. 💫Congratulations! to all involved in the collaboration research. Blatt & @karniklab.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

✨ Excited to share our manuscript uncovering a new target for CO2-regulation in vesicle trafficking that provides a new perspective on plant responses to #climate change. @jipb.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

We have a fully funded PhD studentship to join our group researching a newly identified climate sensing module in plants. Working with the fascinating Begonia species this project offers opportunities for cross disciplinary work in molecular cell biology. www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

The attractiveness halo effect is a cognitive bias where people tend to associate positive attributes such as intelligence with perceived attractiveness. But how does this effect work in the age of beauty filters? New research in Royal Society Open Science explores: royalsociety.org/blog/2024/12...
