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!

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!

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.

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.

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!
