🚨 PhD Position in Plant Molecular Biology 🌱
We are looking for a motivated PhD student to join our team to study root protective barriers. If you are interested in confocal microscopy, cell wall biology, and plant development, this project might be for you! Please share!
#PlantScience #PlantSciJob
I am focused on the Stand Up for Science events today, but I will dig into these data early next week.
I was continuously funded from when I started my independent career in 1988 until I move to NIH in 2003, usually with multiple grants.

This weekend, on March 7, @standupforscience.bsky.social is leading protests in 25 locations.
Scientists had warned about the replacement of evidence over ideology and the damage it would cause. Everything that I was worried about came true.

As a cyclist, I would say that my life is in drivers' hands...
...but I can see that their hands are busy texting.
When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

@embl.org at its best: collaborative, open, transformative, and just the right amount of crazy. Dreaming of mechanistic cell biology *in the natural environment*? Dream no more, rent the AML.

I’ve admitted kids with rhabdomyolysis (many) and acute demyelinating encephalomyelitis (thankfully just once several years ago).
