Our new experimental evolution study across 30+ locations using the plant Arabidopsis thaliana —— we direct "see" adaptation and extinction to different climates at the genetic as it happens! Read it in Science dx.doi.org/10.1126/scie... @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social @hhmi-science.bsky.social

In the frame of the French ANR funded project HOMONIME project (anr.fr/Projet-ANR-2...), we will open 3 PhD positions to work on nickel homeostasis in plants using genomic, proteomic, metabolomic and spectrometric approches in Toulouse, Grenoble and Pau. Contact me for further informations

My proposal was one of 1,966 submitted in the MSCA-LIF (Life Sciences) section this year. Despite my initial doubts, I am beyond thrilled to have been awarded this grant. I am truly honored to have incredible supervisors who guide me in the right direction.

🚨 Update for #RNA science fans: I checked on #Bsky registry, and here is a 'condensate' (😆) of all #RNA #RNAsky starter packs so far: 1. General RNA biology #1 go.bsky.app/RN6HnZp

Do you know who Douglas Prasher is? Many don't, even though he is the person who cloned the original #GFP gene in the late 1980s. In my short history of plant light #microscopy I also cover a bit of his story - & why he is relatively unknown today, despite the importance of his work. See this 🧵👇
