New paper from our lab @jxbotany.bsky.social about auxin and cytokinin interactions during carpel initiation in Arabidopsis Led by @andreagomezfe.bsky.social in collaboration with @defolter-lab.bsky.social academic.oup.com/jxb/advance-...

I am beyond thrilled (like the screaming and jumping type of thrilled) that my SNSF Starting Grant was funded. I will start my own lab @unibe.ch next year, studying succulent anatomy development and if and how this anatomy is required for efficient CAM photosynthesis in different Kalanchoë species 🌱

Thrilled to be among the recipients of the SNSF Starting Grants! Congrats to all the incredible researchers funded this year. Can’t wait to keep exploring how plants grow, sense, and respond to mechanical forces. Plants and biophysics rock!🌱⚛️

Coming to you live from #ISPLORE2025JP Fresh preprint from my lab showing that leaves progressively oxygenate and how this is important for their morphogenesis.Thanks to our collaborators from @Fra_LicO2si lab. #plantscience www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Join us at the Plant Science Research Institute of the University of Montreal to develop your research group in Plant Molecular Genetics: www.nature.com/naturecareer...

We have a unique opportunity for a junior researcher, PhD student or postdoc, to use a revolutionary technique for mineral nutrient imaging and tracing in plants. Please re-post! Interested candidates should apply through the portal at the link below: career5.successfactors.eu/career?compa...

Big thanks to Daniel Cosgrove & Enrico Coen @innerworldsjic.bsky.social for spotlighting our paper. doi.org/10.1016/j.cu... Let’s call for more in vivo data on growth, elasticity & stress. Time to fuel the field with experiments! 🔬🖥️📏🧪🌿 @currentbiology.bsky.social

It is real!!! 3 years after Joris Sprakel and I conceived the first ideas, the GreenTE Gravitation project has really started. We could not be happier after seeing all the ambition, joy and excitement among our ECR’s and PI’s. Plant Mechanobiology for the win!!! More info: www.green-te.nl

Very happy to have contributed to this collaborative work, with main drivers Marion Orsucci and Adrien Sicard: Sexual selection drives the speciation of lineages with contrasting mating systems: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Proud to present the first data paper from the lab, published today in @pnas.org. We describe a new mechanism for CLE peptides as local symbiosis-amplifying signals, promoting plant interactions with beneficial arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Congratulations @sagarbashyal.bsky.social et al.!

Final version of our preprint on ARF degradation now online @natplants.nature.com. Great job by PhD student Martijn de Roij in our team @bic-wur.bsky.social @w-u-r.bsky.social with @jorgehg.bsky.social and JW Borst. Great to see this appear along @mjprigge.bsky.social paper!!! rdcu.be/ehkTn

Join us in Cambridge this September for the 9th annual Plant #ComputationalBiology Workshop. Seminars and discussions will focus on 5 key themes: 1. #Mechanics 2. Pattern processes 3. #AI 4. Computer graphics 5. Concepts 🧳3 travel grants available REGISTER TODAY www.slcu.cam.ac.uk/computationa...

Our lab's first review article written with @yadhusankar.bsky.social and @vijayalakshmi.bsky.social is out now in The Plant Journal! 🎉🌱 We discuss temporal regulation of (plant) development. When and how do plants control organ and cell identity progression? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Montreal will continue the largest pedestrian street program in North America, committing $12mil to 9 pedestrian streets over 3-years. “These projects are not only good for the economy, they also contribute directly to the quality of life of the population.” @valplante.bsky.social

Let me know in the comments how many "oopsies we made an error" should lead to a Correction, vs. Expression of Concern vs. Retraction. For example: 1 to 2; 3 or 4; 5 or more. Any rotations / mirroring should way heavier too. Would be nice to have some standards.
