Super excited and honoured to have been awarded an ERC Starting Grant for CooPAIRation! How do plant immune receptors work together to trigger an immune response? Can we modulate immune responses for disease resistance? We will tackle these questions in CooPAIRation Positions to be announced soon!

My department is hiring a Plant-Fungal Assist Prof!! As the newest #NewPI here, don't get me started on how wonderful my colleagues, how smooth my onboarding has been, how supportive the school and the department are, how nice my brand new lab is, and how convenient living in Champaign Urbana is!

🚨 We’re hiring–please spread the word! 🚨 Our lab at @thesainsburylab.bsky.social is looking for a pre-doc intern to join our research on plant immunity. If you’re a current undergrad/master’s or recent graduate interested in gaining research experience, please apply! tatsuyanobori.com

Happy to be able to finally share our NLR pangenome paper, out now in CHM. "Pangenomic context reveals the extent of intraspecific plant NLR evolution" www.cell.com/cell-host-mi... #plantscience #plantimmunity #pangenomes #science #nlr

We've seen lots of examples of parallel evolution at the point mutation level in fungicide target encoding genes (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...), and now @thorstenlangner.bsky.social has found repeated evolution of point mutations in a plant pathogen effector, too!

Great to see this out. Hopefully very useful assemblies for the community. These were very challenging to assemble due to high heterozygosity and lots of recent repeat activity. Tom Heaven put in a huge effort with manual #HiC #curation to get them in good shape.
