Caltech Chemical Engineering is recruiting a long-term lecturer! Reach out if you’re interested and have any questions. applications.caltech.edu/job/chemeng

Excited to share that I will be opening my lab this fall at the @weizmanninstitute.bsky.social in the Department of Plant & Environmental Sciences! I am looking for postdocs interested in plant biology, stress biology, and single-cell technologies. #PlantBiology #SingleCell #Epigenomics #Postdoc

Excited to see the major chapter of my PhD in print! We present a massively-parallel approach for screening CRISPR edits in plants to speed up agricultural test cycles + benchmark genomic LMs. Thanks to my fantastic co-authors and advisors. Link below!

We're hiring a postdoctoral researcher in plant genome engineering with expertise in synthetic biology, gene editing, and omics, with an interest in developing next-generation technologies for plants.🪴🧬 Available immediately. If interested, send your CV! Feel free to share with your networks.

ECRs in plant–microbe interactions: Join us in Norwich for an intensive, interactive 1.5-week Summer Conference at TSL (20–31 July). Lots of opportunities for networking and deep discussions. (We also plan to offer hands-on practical sessions using our technologies 🔬🧬)

Interested in learning about the latest and greatest research in how plants respond to excess salt, too little or too much water? Come to the GRC in Salt and Water Stress in Switzerland. Lots of opportunities for all career levels. www.grc.org/salt-and-wat.... Please repost!

Our new review in Science @science.org is out with @jennyrussinova.bsky.social and @nvukas.bsky.social. We discuss how precise modulation of brassinosteroid signaling can enable more targeted, predictable improvements in plant growth and resilience. science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adu9798

It was great to talk science and show @billgates.bsky.social around our lab at @caltech.edu . Nolan and Meyerowitz lab postdoc Donovan Phua's regenerating callus is featured 🌱 www.instagram.com/reel/DQo2pen...
