We are very much looking forward to welcoming you in Les Diablerets 🇨🇭 for the International Symposium on Plant Photobiology (ISPP2026), Sept. 8-11, 2026! @martinalegris.bsky.social @emiliedemarsy.bsky.social @chfankhauser.bsky.social @plantphotobiology.bsky.social ➡️ See the links below.

Deadline Nov 15 (in 2 days!). Join us in Geneva in the fantastic Dpt. of Molecular and Cellular Biology - great opportunity! mocel.unige.ch/news-events/...

Registration is now open for the 2026 edition of our UU PhD summer school. Check out the not-to-be-missed speaker lineup 🤩🤩 signup now!! @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social @utrechtpmi.bsky.social @epsgraduateschool.bsky.social @rlberendsen.bsky.social @mproveniers.bsky.social @kaisakajala.bsky.social

Switzerland is joining Horizon Europe! We are uniting two research powerhouses. For cutting-edge innovation that will boost our energy security, digital transformation, health and so much more. Today is a good day for science, and for our EU-Switzerland partnership.

Researchers use less and less hedges (may, might, perhaps, probably ...) in their papers. Or in other words papers are becoming more like biblical texts. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

We have an exciting PhD position in our lab to explore phototropin receptor diversity in Begonia. If you’re interested in plant photobiology and receptor signalling, we’d love to hear from you! Deadline for expressions of interest: 20 December 2025.

We have progressed from data collection to data analysis.

My annual reminder that "diurnal" means day active. As in "humans are diurnal organisms, whereas mice are nocturnal". The correct term for the 24 h light/dark cycle is "diel".
