Yesterday, we celebrated the 9th #ZMBP PhD Symposium, where our PhD students (and some from @mpi-bio-fml.bsky.social) presented their work as chalk talks, posters and longer talks. Thanks everyone for the scientific discussions on #plantscience!

📢 Job alert! #PlantSciJob We are opening a Professorship (W1-TT) in Plant Biochemistry at the ZMBP @unituebingen.bsky.social Apply by October 17th Please spread the word! More info 👇 uni-tuebingen.de/fakultaeten/...

📢 A Junior Professorship (W1, tenure track) is open at the Center for Plant Molecular Biology at Uni Tübingen (@zmbp-tuebingen.bsky.social) — to work on plant protein biochemistry (composition, structure, dynamics, or regulation of protein complexes). 🌱 Great opportunity — Apply by Oct 17th!

The BM^2 Lab is hiring a Ph.D. student to work on a variety of problems connected to modeling of morphogenesis in plants (i.e. ovule curvature formation, fixed handedness establishment in certain plant organs and its link to cell wall mechanics). Please share!

Full house for today’s @TheSainsburyLab seminar with Farid @Farid_El_Kasmi on #NLRbiology

Special Issue Alert for August! Plants & Microbes: Growing Insight www.cell.com/cell-host-mi...

We were invited to write a short Preview article for @cp-cellhostmicrobe.bsky.social on the recent @cp-cell.bsky.social publication from Du & Alam et al. on overcoming Restricted Taxonomic Functionality of NLRs Read our Preview here: www.cell.com/cell-host-mi...

Grateful to all that came to my poster at #2025ISMPMI this week 🌱 This was not an easy story to present, but the support and discussions were great and made this a journey worth telling!

Less than a week left to apply! 🌱💚

My first MPMI #2025ISMPMI 😎😍@GeminiTeam Excited to hear all the amazing science, have great discussions, and connect with friends! If you’re interested in plant-(Gemini)virus interactions and scRNA-seq, let’s meet on Wednesday, July 16 at poster P-437. #scRNA-seq (bring me to your poster as well!

I will be there present my poster at tomorrow’s poster session. Find me at P-011 where I will tell you about the story of Marchantia BIR protein and how may it help plant fighting against evil bacteria. #2025ISMPMI

Excited to present at @mpmijournal.bsky.social Can BIR proteins link PTI and ETI? Using AlphaFold & evolutionary insights, we dive into how BIRs balance immunity with CSA1 as a key regulator of cell death & receptor complex homeostasis. P-441 | Mon 14 July | 13:30–15:15 #2025ISMPMI

Viral genomes might encode more proteins than we initially thought! Intrigued? Come see my poster on the identification of potentially new ORFs in the potato virus X genome. Tuesday 9:55-11:30, P-266 @geminiteamlab.bsky.social #2025ISMPMI

Hey #2025ISMPMI! 🌱 We ofcourse all aim to do great & successful science! However, it doesn't always work out the way we hope, but we rarely hear about those stories.. So let's change that! Find me at my poster P-102 on Tuesday and let's discuss "failed" science, and what we can still learn from it!

And another @zmbp-tuebingen.bsky.social delegation just arrived in Cologne for the #2025MPMI Niels (P-041), @chia-nan.bsky.social (P-011), Pin-Jou (P-438), Yujing (P-027), Farid (P-063), @raphaelschaal.bsky.social (P-094) and @ericksonlab.bsky.social (P-169)

I am presenting my work as a poster @ISMPMI #2025ISMPMI on monday 14.07 ! :) Join me and learn more about HIR2 oligomeric rings - a novel perspective on membrane organization (Poster number 39) Head here to see more: ismpmi.org/congress

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

Congratulations to the #GreenRobust team for securing @dfg.de funding for the next 7 years to investigate plant robustness! 🌱 Special thanks to our very own Rosa Lozano-Durán @geminiteamlab.bsky.social and the co-spokespersons @thomasgreb.bsky.social and @kjschmid.bsky.social. Exciting times ahead!

In this new #SciArt profile, we meet Margot Smit @likeyoda1.bsky.social, a plant developmental biologists @zmbp-tuebingen.bsky.social. Margot enjoys linocut printmaking. Her designs are often inspired by images from the lab and scenes from nature 🌱 thenode.biologists.com/sciart-profi...
