Next up was @tatsuyanobori.bsky.social who gave a fantastic talk on how his lab is unraveling plant-microbe interactions utilizing cutting-edge tools spatial transcriptomics (MERFISH) and multiplexed 3D gene expression (PHYTOMap). A compelling story brought to life by stunning visuals.

Saving the best for the last (I might be biased πŸ€ͺ)
@carahaney.bsky.social shared our recent work on how RLKs help plants communicate with the diverse microbiota. There are so many RLKs, and we are just scratching the surface of understanding what they do!

In a fun and engaging manner, @kcox-bioguy.bsky.social shared how we can use expansion microscopy to effectively study stress responses in duckweed! What I really loved was how his lab organizes various outreach activities to make such complex mechanisms easier to young students! #aspb #pb2025
