Group leader position at the University of Helsinki, Institute of Biotechnology. Plant biologists eligible as well. jobs.helsinki.fi/job/Helsinki...

❗ We have an open post-doc position in our group! 🌱🥔🧬 Are you interested in novel crop breeding techniques and potatoes? If yes, the CRISPS project (in collaboration with Wageningen University and SLU Sweden) may be something for you! You can apply here: jobs.admin.ch/job-vacancie... #NBTs

With the publication of a new preprint (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...) with collaborators @labschneeberger.bsky.social @plantevolution.bsky.social and @jurriaanton.bsky.social, I feel it is timely to talk about what will probably be the most successful 'failed' experiment of my career.

We're looking for a new PhD candidate to join the lab. Please share 🌱😄

🌱 🔬 🚨 There is a 2-year postdoc position available in my group in Neuchâtel 🚨 Please share! Details here: www.unine.ch/biologie/wp-...

Tom's paper on potential targets of CIPC for sprout suppression in potatoes (and Arabidopsis) is now out at Plant Direct in its final form, 4 months after our initial submission to BioRxiv. dx.doi.org/10.1002/pld3...

Had a lovely time at the @gensocuk.bsky.social Seed Plants Research meeting. Such a diversity of topics, plus lots of networking opportunities, including dinner at Durham Castle! Congrats to poster prize winners: First: Karolina Brzezinska Runners up: Skylar Johnson, George Jervis, Anisha Uppal

#PlantSciJobs Lots of positions in Cambridge, including an epigenetics postdoc

Very much looking forward to this meeting in Durham!

An opportunity for the brightest in mid-years of a STEM degree in the UK. A paid studentship for those of Black-heritage to contribute to research and learn through an inclusive experience. Apply by Sunday March 30th!

There’s only one week left to apply for the BiPS Summer Studentship. Like the students from our cohort last year, you will have the opportunity to present at the 2025 BiPS Conference. Head to the link in our website for the list of projects that you could possibly take part in: buff.ly/lDqP68H

Excited to share that I'll soon be recruiting a 3 year postdoc to join the lab @lancasterplantbio.bsky.social to work with me on Rubisco biochemistry and engineering. Official advertising details to be released very soon, watch this space! Please spread the word. 😀🌱🧪🥼

First day back at work today after six months off with long Covid. Pluses: being around people and science again. Minuses: Trying to manage fatigue and other people's expectations of where my recovery is at.

The Rowe lab is recruiting a #PlantScience PhD student for 2025! You'll use our new ABACUS FRET biosensors to map the leaf #AbscisicAcid accumulations at low humidity in Arabidopsis, wheat and rice to understand how ABA regulates stomatal dynamics. #PhDposition www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

A fantastic opportunity for any up and coming plant biologist! ⬇️

We're looking for a postdoc to join the lab to work on cell-to-cell communication via the apoplast. Candidate must be brave, as they will have to lead us (me) away from the plasmodesmata-lands we've inhabited for so long! www.jic.ac.uk/vacancies/po...

A PhD position is available in my group @_SLU. Come join us in Uppsala, Sweden to work on plant regeneration and graft hybrid formation! Details below. Please share! #plantscijobs #PlantScience

Still time to apply for this! Deadline the 17th of March.

Our PhD position is still open with a new deadline of 14th March. Come join us in Sheffield!

PhD student Tom Grand's paper is now online! Tom studied how the sprout suppressant CIPC changes gene expression in potatoes, developed an Arabidopsis assay to study CIPC responses, and found a promising lead for CIPC targeting of the cell cycle.

A reminder that I currently have a fully funded PhD advertised to work on plant reproduction! Sheffield is a great environment in which to study - friendly, supportive colleagues, LOTS of plant research going on @sheffieldpps.bsky.social, and close to the Peak District for hikes and climbing.

I've finally migrated. Expect the usual sporadic mix of plant science and amateur fungi photos. For now, here's a collection of colourful wax caps from yesterday's walk on the outskirts of Sheffield. All within about a 5 m radius in a field.
